There is differences depending how you pay with Scottish Power Also according to their online community they can just add it to your account if your balance isn’t healthy enough. There are moans that some people with prepay smart meters were meant to have it added beginning of month as credit to use and that’s not happened 😞

My SIL is with different supplier and pays by DD and got her £66 into bank few days after her payment. Think she said Octopus.

I'm with Octopus and pay monthly by DD on receipt of a bill, so the £66 was taken off my bill for this month. It must vary between suppliers and methods of payment but it seems strange that Octopus would do it differently for different customers.

It did with mine, Sue. That is the way it is supposed, and was intended by the Gov., to work. Some suppliers seem to be making it up as they go along.

Am I understanding you correctly, you pay by DD what is billed each month rather than a regular amount for your DD?  I’m also with Octopus, paying a regular amount by DD.  They were going to deduct the £66/67 from my DD for the relevant 6 months but I asked them not to because life will be simpler that way (OH).

Just a quick post - not been on for ages so apologies if already posted, and can't seem to find a separate page for Poundstretcher bargains. Anyway, these 250ml hand wash refills have been 50p for ages in my local store. A few weeks back they dropped to 20p and were situated on a shelf by the entrance, I bought a couple when they were 50p to see how my hands felt after washing as some antibac hand washes dry them out. They're fine, no pretty smell but that doesn't bother me. Anyway came back from our hols last week and noticed they'd been moved into the centre of the store in dump bins, I've stocked up, at 20p they're an absolute bargain. If you unscrew the whole cap from the bottle they drain very quickly and easily into the hand wash bottles.

They've also reduced the little Kleenex anti bac wipes to 15p, ideal for popping into a handbag/back pack for when you're out.

Can anyone let me know of there is a wine offer in Lidl's this weekend We may be going to B'ham

Can only see one white one offered in Scotland and Wales
