At lunch time today, I requested that our house is disconnected from mains gas and ordered a new fully electric range cooker to replace our current one which has a gas hob.

Feels like quite the milestone...a very expensive one. £1.5k to disconnect from mains gas. Dang.

@tdp_org how long until the standing charge tots up to £1500?

We have gas connected and only use it for the hob, also.

@tdp_org Pretty much 14 years give or take a few days at the current 29p ish per day standing charge.

I think I'd just turn off at the meter for that cost!
