has anyone who uses a card or key meter from scottish power (manweb) noticed that you are putting more and more money into your meter
i ask as we are sticking £5 every other day and this is compared to a year ago when we were stcking £10 per week in the meter
i have asked people in my area and they seem to be having the same problem
are scottish power pulling a fast one and trying to make more profits for the fat cat share holders
i feel sorry for the pensioners who cant afford these massive price rises,and in the worst case senario some will perish this winter
has anyone any veiws on this

that is a very good question i switched to Scottish power for gas and electricity now you come to mention it i think i am spending more on them I'm using about 40 quid a week on gas and prob 25-30 quid a week on electric Jesus no wonder I'm skint maybe we should all do a price comparison i don't even have my heating on through the day cause no one is home how is 40 quid a week justified tut that is ridiculous

I am with scottish power ,but on a quarterly bill,I noticed on the last one it had risen dramatically.
It said on the news before christmas all gas and electricity prices had risen by 81% last year.
We are forever being ripped off in this country,im sick of it.

All domestic fuel prices have dramatically increased this past year. Have a search around the Energy Watch website to see if you can get a better deal anywhere. Also check out USwitch.

you need to question this with them - once you've paid it you're unlikely to get it back & it probably is an error
