So my direct debit suggestion has decided I should pay £140 per month (it was suggesting £5 in March) and looking at the ‘Costs’ the calculation it uses doesnt seem to take into account any changes in usage.
So its suggesting I will be paying over £70 per month for electricity for the rest of the year despite having spent less than £5 in March.
We had solar panels installed in December so our usage for Dec - March are unsurprisingly alot lower but the direct debit suggestion doesnt seem to take that into account.
I also dont understand why if I want to increase the amount I have to increase it to the minimum suggested amount - its sad that it thinks the machine calculation knows better than the person whos using / paying for the energy!
In case it doesnt make sense - check the graph below - March is the current usage - now compare the ‘expected’ usage for the next 12 months!
