Hi Angie, yes I mean a pre payment one.

Kaz, we got one recently cos of the size of the bill. IT has run out and i have no hot water or heating cos OH accidentally took the card away. I need to know if i can start emergency credit without the card and how do i do it as Ive lost the instructions!!

is is a new one, i know the old ones had a button you pressed and held down to get emergancy credit..

did you also know, you pay a daily charge of about 60 pence to have one of them, thats why i changed.

it is the law, if you feel up to it on monday phone one of the papers and name and shame the company, you never know, they pay for your story not much, but the gas company might give you money on your card as compo and goodwill...... every little helps.

does your washer cold fill?
