    Just moving in to my first flat that isn't student accommodation and this video has been a life saver for settling my nerves. Surprising how little this is covered online tbh. Thank you!

    Thank you so much, I was overwhelmed when I was told I needed to setup my own accounts by the landlord

    It's actually shocking how you are the only person who did a video about this, I'm honestly surprised. Thank you so much for this, you have no idea how many people you helped or are helping with this video.

    I'm looking at moving into my first flat on my own in the next few months. Crazy how difficult it is to find a clear guide on how to set everything up. This video answered all my questions! Thank you! :)

    Hi, I like your video`s. And, you make it sound very interesting too, esp., for others moving here.In Scotland however, the Water and, Sewerage is included in the Council Tax and, no separate bill is issued. Everything else is the same really.

    Jen for gas/electricity you can pay by a fixed (amount of)monthly direct debit or a variable quarterly Direct debit. Fixed water rates are based on the value of the property or if your landlord wishes you can get a water meter fitted, and you are billed on your actual usage, which could work out cheaper for less than 3 occupants.

    One thing about TV licence. The law changed on 1 September 2016 and you need a TV licence if yu are watching BBC programmes on iPlayer - live, catch up or on demand on your PC, Laptop, Phone or Tablet. A standard TV cost £145.50 a year. There is a fine of up to £1000 plus any legal costs.

      Just wonderful, I been tryin to find out about "how to reduce electricity bills in homes" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Piyaleb Spectacular Primacy - (do a google search ) ? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering how to generate your own electricity minus the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my partner got excellent success with it.

    Can you explain further how it works? Cause I recently moved to a room in a house with a live in landlord. And all the bills are inclusive. Also while I was searching for flats everyone wrote in the description that all bills are included. So I just pay an amount of money and that's it. The downside is that I want to pay my own bills and council tax but now I cannot

    Virgin does have the best internet (Like £35 for up to 100Mbps w/ no phone line). I couldn't get Virgin in my place so I've had to go with PlusNet (£36 for up to 78Mbps with a phone line). I did have very low expectations for PlusNet but the internet I get is very good.
    I refuse to go with TalkTalk or Sky because I've had those before, and they suck balls

      adam051838 What about electricity bills? What's your average bill?

    • @adam051838
      @adam051838 8 лет назад

      I use about £1.70 per day (that's a very rough average) I use electric moderately but when I first moved out on my own I used a lot more. Just takes time to find out where you can save it, reading the meter is very useful

      adam051838 I mainly rely on electronics for my everyday life. I don't use gas for cooking. I always use an induction plus I'm 60% of the day on my laptop.

    There is a company called Octopus Energy. They do really awesome rates on utility bills - it is all online. We saved a lot switching to them. The switch took about 5 minutes to process (and about 2 weeks for them to put it through). It is also 100% renewable and you can get £50 off by joining. Check out their prices share.octopus.energy/fair-race-901
    and see if it is cheaper than your provider. Really recommend them x

    Great Video! Excuse me for the intrusion, I am interested in your opinion. Have you tried - Proutklarton Vanish Electricbills Plan (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for cutting your electric bill substantially without the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my m8 after a lifetime of fighting got excellent results with it.

    What stops you from giving them very low power and gas readings😏

    • @JenDre
      @JenDre  4 года назад

      They often send someone to check and once u move out u have to give a final reading. If the first reading of new tenant is way off theyll know you lied and youll have to pay the difference.

  • @Something-d4k
