'Switching it off has saved me hundreds'
As new renters trying to get to grips with household bills me and my partner looked up all the hacks to save money. Turning off standby appliances, running the washing machine during off-peak hours and even turning the thermostat down by one degree.
We moved into our first house but in early summer last year our bill went up from £125 per month to £240, even though we knew a rise in price was coming given the price cap at the time, this was a lot more than expected. What is an immersion heater and how much do they cost? In our rented house we have both a boiler and an immersion heater, which I now know can be turned on as a back up in case our boiler breaks or needs to be serviced. This way you can still get 'emergency' hot water for showers or the radiators.
Account credit and how to claim the money back By turning off the immersion heating we have racked up £372 in credit since October, all be it some may be from overspending by direct debit.
