Knowing when your bill arrives and what period it covers can prevent surprises and help you budget.
Billing dates and usage periods
Fuse Energy issues bills on the second working day of each month. These charges relate to your energy usage from the 1st to the last day of the previous calendar month. So, your June bill will detail the electricity and gas you used throughout May.
Payment collection schedule
Payment for Fuse Energy bills is typically taken 3-5 working days after the bill has been issued. This schedule allows a short window to review your statement before the payment is processed.
Understanding the breakdown of costs on your energy bill is crucial for managing your consumption and expenditure.
Key components of your bill
Your energy bill from Fuse Energy will itemise your charges, showing your total consumption in kilowatt-hours (kWh) for both electricity and gas, if you have both supplies. It will also display the unit rates applied to your usage and the daily standing charge. The average UK home uses around 2,500 kWh of electricity per year, according to Ofgem1.
Understanding unit rates and standing charges
Unit rates are the cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of energy you use. Standing charges are a fixed daily fee that covers the cost of supplying energy to your property, regardless of how much you use. Ofgem, the energy regulator, sets the energy price cap, which directly influences these unit rates and standing charges on energy bills.
The Fuse app empowers you to access, understand, and manage your energy usage and bills, giving you greater control over your energy finances.
Accessing your bill and usage data
Through the Fuse app, you can easily access your latest bill and review your historical usage data. This transparency allows you to see exactly how much energy you have used and what you are being charged for, helping you track your consumption patterns over time.
Submitting accurate meter readings
Submitting up-to-date meter readings is essential for accurate billing. While smart meters send readings automatically, if you have a traditional meter, you can submit readings directly through the Fuse app. This ensures your bill is based on your actual usage, rather than estimates, avoiding potential over or undercharging.
Proactive usage monitoring
The Fuse app provides tools to monitor your energy usage proactively. By regularly checking your consumption, you can identify trends, understand which appliances use the most energy, and make informed decisions to reduce your usage if desired. This capability helps you manage your energy costs throughout the month, not just when the bill arrives.
Even with clear billing and digital tools, questions can arise. Knowing where to turn for help is important.
When to contact customer support
If you have any questions about your June energy bill, discrepancies in charges, or need assistance with the Fuse app, 24/7 human customer support is available. Contacting support can help resolve issues quickly and provide peace of mind.
Ofgem's role in protecting consumers
Ofgem regulates the UK energy market, setting the energy price cap and ensuring consumer protection regarding billing and supply.
