Transco site - gone! Who to call?
I need to get a 2nd gas main supply installed. I looked for Transco's webside, but it has ben replaced by "he National Grid" website which doesn't seem to provide contact details for someone wanting a new gas supply. Anyone know the correct number to call? Thanks, Duke |

The National Grid website seems very much 'under construction' at present. (Lots of dead links and such - and scarcely any useful contact info.) Duke |

Anyone know the correct number to call? That depends on where you live, assuming you really do want a gas main. If you want a gas supply to a building then that should be arranged via your gas supplier. -- David Hansen, Edinburgh I will *always* explain revoked encryption keys, unless RIP prevents me http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/00023--e.htm#54 |

All I really wanted was a second meter, (my house is divided into two one-bed flats) My gas supplier today said I would first have to contact Scotia Gas Networks (the co that suplies gas to all of Southern England) to start the ball rolling. After Scotia Gas had sent a bloke around to se the place, he said they would contact them with a pipe number and they (my gas supplier) would come and install a meter. I was hoping to avoid the expense of having a second mains supply pipe coming from the road, but it remains to be seen what Scotia Gas will allow. If anyone knows a clever way to avoid the expense of a second gas main from the road, please let me know! Cheers, Duke If you want a gas supply to a building then that should be arranged via your gas supplier. |

They must just sit around if they do not have to stoke the fires anymore. Scargill has got a lot to answer for!! ;-) The bloke turned up this afternoon and has given me a date for moving the meter.
