Gas Prepayment Meters
Yoshi:
Well after spending 40 mins just now on hold waiting for first contact with them i have given up, i was supposed to have a gas engineer out today to look at the fire for something else but he never turned up, landlord is going ape at him this evening when he goes round for dinner, so will have to find out later this evening, only problem is this leaves me with no heating as i doubt british gas will class it as an emergency with it just being a meter fault.
Yoshi:
Forgot to add, last i checked they werent charging me a standing charge for the gas, or at least thats what they told me over the phone, apparently british gas dont do standing charges
marjan:
Unfortunately this is the most expensive way of paying for gas as you also pay a rental charge for the meter. Get someone to do a gas tightness test for you to make sure that you have no leaks.
Also depends which fire you have as some of the Living Flame Effect fires eat loads of gas.

The other thing is taking back the emergency payment but that's usually only a couple of quid anyway
Yoshi:
The emergency paypment gets taken back straight away, hence putting £15 on the card to put onto the meter.
