Is it really cheaper for me to have central heating on all day than a gas fire?

Guys...those that are trying to contribute in a constructive manner probably realise hollyoakes has more difficulties than most so let's not be too quick to judge and just see if we can help him through this instead of littering the thread with unhelpful and occasionally snide posts.

It's not a windup, give me a break mate. I struggle with my health, I am in constant agony, I bet you're healthy add into the bargain, I have just lost my brother in law and was over playing with my wee niece, who's heartbroken she doesn't have a Dad anymore and is attending counseling. She goes through enough with her spinabifida can't even do her own pee pees or poos. It's heartbreaking to watch. I am entering my fire being on all day reading at 7:50pm. And I would like if you could tell me what the difference is between the central heating and the fire as it might help someone else like me and I will be out of your hair. I don't see what the wind up is I struggle ok. Is that what you want to hear? As I haven't a clue about meters or heating. And as I say it may help someone else like me without being ridiculed they can look at this thread.

The reason this thread appears a windup is that what ever your state of physical health the questions you ask are both intelligent and perceptive, yet when offered advice you respond with a reason to ignore it and pose another question. With persistence like yours resolving problems through social services and landlord should not be difficult.

OK mate I know I am. I Just want to know the difference betwwen the fire and the central heating. And that the energy company is not ripping me off. And yes I am persistant. I don't get help off anyone. I can't even get an extra wireless heating control for when I can't walk and I have been told just to use my electric blanket. And believe me I pushed all the way for that. I would buy one myself but I don't think it will work. You will know better, the reciever is only single band I think and I think you need a dual band reciever to have 2 wireless heating controls in fact I am going to ask the gas engineer tomorrow when I see him if that is the case. When I get him to set my heating control to come on at 18 degrees instead of 21. I can only apologise about this but I just want to know these things and that's me sorted. Thank you.

Nevermind the gas central heating or the gas fire, reading all ten pages of this makes me want to put my head in the gas oven!

"I don't get help off anyone" this statement really sums it up for me. You DO get help. A lot of help. The constant visits from gas engineers to your property cost money. Not your money tho. The council or social housing will pick up the tab for that. There's people with real issues in dire need of help but due to too many time wasters playing the system they're unable to receive help. If you can't afford it turn it off. It's that simple. How the hell did people survive years ago?! Really boils me this.
