When do standing charges get added onto the IHD? I've noticed that when the unit prices went down this month the cost showing when I get up in the morning has actually gone up, suggesting it might be due to standing charges. However I had previously assumed it was late at night, because when I check the previous days cost against the cost showing when I went to bed, that has also jumped up. So I'm puzzled.

Good morning
Can anyone tell me at what time of day does the Daily Standing Charge get added.
My standing charge for electric is 63.250p. Yet every morning when I get up, whatever time, it is always starting around 72 - 75p

Hi
Usually it’s around Midnight for Electricity and roughly 5am for Gas.

Just a note here
There are some calling for a standardisation which would be useful.
