31 March 2022 -

Yes, although it won't make much difference if a reading is sent a few days before or after 1st April.

If you were a utility company, who was losing money due to the price cap, would you under estimate people's bills up to the 31st March or would you over estimate it?

[SueEllen]

Good news - you can submit your readings tomorrow if you couldn't submit them today.

To be fair my supplier normally allows you to enter readings taken 3 days in the past.

[NotAllThere]

Because the big price hike starts on 01/04/22

OK, I'll accept a whooosh on this one.

Website says:

Sorry, we're experiencing higher than usual levels of website traffic.
If you're having trouble logging in to your account, don't worry, you have until 9 April to give us your meter readings online for 31 March.

Expect some utility supplier online systems to fall over in the evening/night.

Indeed. Can't log in to mine at the moment

They've stuck a banner on the site saying you have until April 9th to give them readings for March 31st, so I'm not going to bother trying repeatedly

EDIT: Ah, I see xog has found the same thing

There is that.

With our supplier (EDF), most of the electricity price increase is in the standing charge (100% hike). It that the same with other suppliers?

Just submitted, no problemo.

Rising energy prices are going to eat into the profits of the many cannabis farmers of South Essex.

I can see the leases on may Range Rover Sports not being renewed.

Just submitted, no problemo.

My supplier has a broken site right now and you can only submit readings as a support ticket!
