AAAGHWe've been lumped with a stupidly high lecky bill demanding we pay £140 p/m for a year to clear the debt! As I not started my new job yet we're still on one income. The lecky people suggested a pre-pay meter which would add £10 per week to our usual usage. Having had a bad experience with the card/key meters before I was reluctant to believe her spiel about the benefits of it.Any advice would be greatly appreciated before I make a decision.

Hi

I deal with all the gas and electric accounts at work for over x60 properties. Prepayment meters are a pain and you do end up paying a higher premium.

What I would suggest though is always take regular readings and check your not paying over the odds for estimated readings.

Maybe also check what rates you're on and shop around.

thank you! I tried mentioning the fact I thought pre-pay was more expensive but obviously they want their money so they will embellish any suggestions in their favour.We think we have funds for the monthlys so here goes!!
