house bills

next year i will be moving out into a house my dad is purchasing, he is going to pay the morgage but me and a few others are going to have to do the house bills

if its not infriding to much on your personal business would a few people mind specifying

1. how many are in the family
2. what size house are you in
3. a rought breakdown of bills, (food excluded)

Might be a bit easier if you told us a bit more about the house (age, rooms, etc) and occupants so we could give you a better idea of what to expect.

Things you'll have to consider are :

Council Tax
Water
Gas
Electricity
Telephone / Mobile
Cable / Sky
Home Contents Insurance
Buildings Insurance
Annual service for heating, etc.
TV Licence
Repairs / contingency

Single guy, 2 bed terraced house.

Council Tax £65
Water £26 fixed
Gas £15
Electricity £18
Home Contents Insurance £28
Buildings Insurance (in above)

when we move in there will be 4 of us to start with, maybe one more if we rent out a room to someone

proberly looking at a 4 bedroom house,

Me and my girlfriend rent a flat. Bills aren't too much - for the last quarter, we where charged £24 for electricity (haven't received a gas bill yet). We are with seaboard for both, so we get a little discount for the whole "dual fuel" thing.

Oh yeah, stay away from British Gas at all costs (leccy or gas). They take imcompetence and arrogance to a possibly new level.

Yeah what is it with that!? Surely you only cancel your TV license when you die, then they get 6 months extra out of you! I am half thinking about cancelling it and waiting six more months on the amoun I have already paid. Its just another way of getting more money out of people so they can invest it in high-interest accounts and make even more money. I hate it.

For me, its me and my bird in a 2 bed terraced house.
Council tax - £168 (!!! Oxford prices!!!)

Rest is about the same as others, only just moved in.

5 bed detached

don't worry about bills, we're minted

not much help really am i?
