The whole energy crisis thing

benson

gcw Are you not also getting a 4p / kWH rebate on the gas? The bills are not very clear

gcw

benson I am yes. Was just highlighting the gross cost without a rebate

For gas I’m getting a 4p credit per kwh, and for electricity I’m getting a 22p and 10p credit per day/night kwh respectively.

Hursty Don’t mean to be rude Hursty but Ive just checked and a year ago BTC was nearly $59k and now it’s $16k. I think you mean that the prices are equivalent to the falls in the crypto market.

Hursty

benson well yes in that kind of snapshot, but I was talking more generally, the crazy gains which are attributed to crypto

whatever

My flat is like the Copacabana warmth wise.

Barry Manilow blaring, you dressed up in your showgirl outfit with a troupe of men, tops off, attempting to plug the holes in your roof so you can stay warm?

gcw Im on 5p at night and 13.6p during the day for electricity. Have to say it is going to be a massive shock when that goes up

Millsy Grant has had to turn his hot tub temp down

I’m using it as an excuse to berate the missus and kids for wasting energy - it’s quite a pleasant sport.

What tariff? I’m with Octopus on Flexible Octopus.

For years now everything we buy on contract is really consumer sort of FUD by design. No-one knows if they are getting a decent deal.

For energy alone…I wouldn’t be surprised if the same tariffs attract different charges to different people. How are you getting cheaper electricity at night? I thought that needed an Economy 7 meter or something? I’ve only just found out that they are an actual thing.

benson

ehitach2 I have octopus go. Fixed for 2 years. Was supposed to be 1 but they forgot to tell me it was coming to an end so gave me another year on it.

gcw

ehitach2 I’m on Co-op Flexible as well

I must have an energy 7 meter, as I have day and night tariffs. The night tariff is from midnight to 7am

I was on a fixed deal with them which ended just before the energy cap being lifted and the (proper case…) Flexible Octopus tariff was really the only option. Or that is how they presented it but it seemed sensible.

I’m going to compare how it is with what @gcw has posted.

Anyway, as you were everyone else, on your sleazy cocaine marathons and general delinquent decline into the weekend.

benson

Mind you, this foam spray insukation thing might come back and shit us up. Nice and toastie but need to replace the roof.

I got an offer for electricity where the price gets checked every four months, and until April it’s 30 c/kwh. We’ve been on a deal since the start of November where the pricing is hourly, and according to electricity’s market price. Yesterday it went over 70 c/kwh for awhile in the afternoon. So now I feel like I’ve won the lottery.

Before November we had a fixed price of 7 c/kwh.

Shell’s profits double to $40bn. Absolutely nothing to worry about here. Inflation my fucking cunt.

Are the cunts paying tax on it yet? No.

Christian

100% increase from last year

Along_the_Wire

Christian 100% increase from last year

I believe that’s what I meant when I said profits doubled.

Millsy

I’ve worked at Shell in the past and they have about three floors in their HQ dedicated to effectively tax avoidance.
