Energy Costs Up Again 1st January.

My standing charges are often higher than the gas or electricity used in the summer which I think is very unfair . I think my charges for electricity is approx 55p per day and gas 35/ 45p per day . With Octopus energy . Surely this could be reduced . I have been into homes of friends which are sooo cold and they are afraid to turn heating on or up .

I live alone and find my bills going up because of the standing charges each month despite using less. Sheer greed on the part of the utility companies. I use what I need to keep myself warm and if i do ever find i cant pay at the end of the month they can do one and take me to court!

I agree, nobody appears to care about what energy costs. I do because it is becoming unaffordable.
