British Gas standard tariff on direct debit is 18.321p per kWh, 23.523p per day, so you're quite a lot cheaper than that If that's what you're paying on Bulb Prepay.


I understand they are, yes.

Bulb don't list a prepay tariff on their site. Maybe it's the same as DD.


Ok.


The drawback is the credit running out when the property is unoccupied (which I assume a probate property is) and the freezer flooding, etc.


Understood. Though if it's just the FF on and 20 quid credit, that
should last over a month.

The account should also be in the name of The Executor of... rather than your daughter, as it's the estate that's liable, not your daughter.


I'm not sure where we are with all that. What I do know though is the
flat was rented and daughter just took over the rental agreement so
that may not be an issue as such.

All the services / BB are now in daughters name and she is now
officially at that address. She didn't actually move out of here as
such, just stepped up when her sister was diagnosed with cancer and
promised to try to do the best for / with her daughter.

Whilst not on a bad wage herself, it's only just enough to cover the
main costs but more than means she gets any help at all (apart from
child allowance). ;-(
