[QUOTE="CharlesC, post: 548657, member: 37309"] Still not much the wiser but I get the idea. It was 161 back in Feb 2022 and only goes up slowly and is 277 currently. Thanks for your meter reading insight, as starting to make margin of sense now. EON have used the total figure as the night reading and the second (rate1) as the day reading. My numbers match the Rate 1 and Rate 2 readings but which is day and night I'd query. When I did a kettle test at 9:10am Rate 2 moved. When I did a heating test during the day Rate 1 moved, so I can assume regardless of when the heating comes on, as it does so during the afternoon, as well as the early hours it gets logged on the Rate 1 meter. So my assumption is Rate 1 = Night and Rate 2 = day time. I've been put on an E10 type tariff (though EON says E7) without my say-so when they changed the meter by the looks of things. Can they do this? I used to have three rates. Day/Night and heat. Going back to Jan 2021 I had a unit price of heating at 16.74p, a day rate of 19.17p and a night rate of 10.49p. Before Putin stuck his oar in we were at Night: 17.37p and Day: 32.17p, so assuming our heating time heat is attributed to the night meter, we are OK, relatively, on the current tariff. EON just need to get their billing sorted. [/QUOTE]
