BedlingtonLass

its actually coffee pre mixed with a whitener with or without sugar yummy

and we think we have had a bad year! gives you a reality check ... there is always someone worse off than you

Hope everyone has a better year than last year, happy new year

Just saw breaking news on sky news there, possibly 2 killed in a house fire in ashington.

anyone know any details?

I hope your not making up rumours or denzel will be after you too

Lets hope this is a better year for us all, Happy New Year

Thanks, if what you`re saying is correct, it means i had an engineer at my home underfalse pretences of reading my meter..but it turns out he actually added debt to it then changed the weekly payment amount to £10..I knew at the time he was taking a long time just reading my meter, i knew he was up to no good.

Solicitors next then.

Very odd, i am sure they have to tell you if they are upping ya payments, good luck i hope you can sort this out soon

Can someone explain something

When you have a pre-payment meter in, is it read like a normal meter? If so, why is it read?

Also, if you are paying debt off a pre-payment meter, say at £3 a week, can the electricity supplier change that weekly payment to £10 a week without notice?

Also, does the above need an engineer to visit your home or can it be done remotely?

Hi i think i can help this is how i believe these work, im not in prepay or debt recovery so please dont quote me for 100% accuracy -

Prepayment meters are read to enable providers to send out a statement to the customer this should not happen very often.

Debts cant be changed unless customer is notified.

Engineers must visit as this can not be controlled any other way

Prepayment meters also have standing charges on them so therefore work out slightly higher priced

Hope this has helped you.

I went to the one in town yesterday, it was like a jumble sale. No nice clothes, just out of season rubbish they had bought in for the sale. Very disappointing!

I think most of the decent sale items will be long gone by now, i got some really good stuff but my sister went yesterday and got one decent thing, people will queue from 3am in the morning for all the decent stuff, but i do agree that next bring in rubbish too

must just be me that is next mad then

so i've heard. nice dig...

dig??? i wasnt digging

argos reduced them to half price but suddenly they went out of stock, if i could bring home a coffee machine from work id have one of them, love the latte but machine is far too big

im getting a new machine called a tassimo, there meant to be fab

hey i get my paycheck at the end of every month and my gas and electric supply is fine, they are good to work for and ive never had no problems what so ever with them personally and i only speak as i find

could be worse i could work for pc world now theres a company that treats its customers bad!

Cant beat a fusion x

it must have been snapped up for that price too

dont know but they have good coffee

Yummmmmmmm Coffee, i have an addiction to the stuff!

Australian

Ha ha i wonder if a Brazilian would have no needles on it

As reported in The Journal, Wansbeck Council have sold the Golf Club for £500,000

As quoted by Bedlington councillor Brian Richmond, "We will now be pressing the Northumberland unitary authority to reinvest the sale proceeds in this area."

By `area`, does councillor Richmond mean Bedlington? or Newbiggin/Ashington?

So...does this mean that Bedlington is finally going to get some much needed facilities? or is it just wishfull thinking on my part?

I personally think as usual Bedlington will get nothing at all

If you hadn't asked the question rumours of a road death in Bedlington Station wouldn't have spread like wildfire.

I'm disappointed.

Rumours were already speading, i was asking anyone if they knew any truth in the matter.

Bedlington is a small place and usually people know whats going on, this is a forum to discuss things happening or that are meant to be happening around the town is it not?

ahh....so your back to work?

seeing surgeons for my health but yes i work for npower

So poor old Norman and Hettie are sat in their bungalow, unable to turn their heating on due to spiralling costs, whilst the employees of Npower receive expensive electronic gadgets like it's going out of fashion.

I hope Denis Murpy gets wind of this.

It is seen as a bonus to the staff members and there are only certain circumstances where gas and or electric can be switched off, i work for them but doesnt mean i believe in everything that they do

I grabbed a few bargains yesterday online from Next and River Island..

No early mornings and queues for me

yeah i shopped online too lol, i think i need shares in the company

Who went to the next sales at 5am this morning?

I was there at 4:30 and the queues were crazy(@ silverlink), lots of bargains to be had so the half hour wait in the cold was worth while.

Not satisfied by the many bargains to be had at one of there stores, i went later to on to another

So basically you've been spreading unsubstantiated rumours?

It was a question to see if anyone knew what had happened

Quick update on what i heard tonight, both ok not a fatal crash, guy has to have surgery on his leg/legs and is being transfered to Newcastle to do so, but all alive as far as aware
