Sorry, our website is having trouble dealing with the number of meter readings being submitted today 🤦 If you're struggling to do yours, don't worry it's fine to do it later or in the next couple of days - we'll still accept them. #MeterReadingDay

If you can't get to do a meter reading today, do it tomorrow, or Sunday, or monday. The nearer to today you do it the less chance of mis-estimates, so don't panic about missing it (either through your own or the firm's issue) just get it in as soon as you can. :)
Pls share. Thurs 31 Mar is energy #MeterReadingDay So firms can't assign some of your current usage to April when rates are c54% higher - Not smart meter? Send a reading (later in the day the better) - Smart or prepay meter? Just take a meter pic for safety (in case of dispute)

To reiterate again you DON'T need to give a meter reading today if you're on a fixed deal, or are in Northern Ireland, or anyone else who's tariff is not on the price cap. And again if on smart/prepay just take pic of your meter, no need to submit

When all you want is to warm up in a nice hot shower and… no water 😩😭 With weather warnings in place for snow & ice, frozen pipes can strike any time, blocking water flow and leading to problems with heating & hot water ❄️ Here’s how to deal with them: bit.ly/FixFrozenPipes

With red weather warnings, the Met Office have advised to stay at home where we can. If you’re on a pre-payment meter, it’s a good idea to top-up with a bit more if you can just in case you can't get out. If you have a smart pre-payment meter, top up here: bit.ly/BGSmartTopUp

With more time spent at home, it’s now more important than ever to have running water. But if it isn’t flowing when you turn on the taps, you may be able to fix this yourself. Watch our video to find out how. If you're still having issues, get in touch and we’ll find a solution.
