How Much Are Household Bills?

[adampember]

In a 3 bedroom terraced house, roughly how much are bills such as water, gas, electric, tv licence, landline etc. per month?

Thanks

[Old_Geezer]

Too much.

I never recall. Would have to spend ages digging bills out.

Usually about 15% more than you bring in

[Old_Geezer]

£145.50 for a TV licence = £12.125 per month is that's any help.

[ummmm]

Water - £45

Gas - £13 (for us because we don't have gas heating)

Elec - £140

TV - £10 approx

[ummmm]

Don't forget you have council tax. That's about £130

[adampember]

Rough estimates will do 200, 400, 600? Just working out how much it would cost if I moved out from living with parents

We are in a 3 bed house and we pay per month:
Alls bills will differ from area to area and from how big your house is as to how much gas /electric you will need.

£12.12 TV Licence per month

£40 Gas
£30 Electricity
£38 Water Rates
Council Tax £119
Landline with Talktalk £25including call charges

You would also need to factor in your mortgage or rent.

My quarterly gas bill (last week) was £300!

I live on my own in a 2 bed house.

The average UK dual-fuel bill (for gas & electricity) is £1420p.a., so that's around £118 per month.

Average household water bills are £388 per year, so that's around £32 per month.

As has been said, a TV licence costs around £12 per month.

Landline phone bills will vary with usage. I get free evening and weekend calls and I hardly make any daytime calls but I still pay around £30 per month.

Council Tax on a 3-bed terraced house might be based upon Band B or Band C, which would typically be around £115 per month.

Adding that lot up comes to around £307 per month. You'd then need to add on things like broadband subscriptions (perhaps £15 per month) and satellite or cable TV (perhaps £27 per month), if appropriate.

I live on my own in a 3 bed flat in Scottyland so our water is included in our council tax.

Gas and Electricity £90 per month
Virgin Broadband/TV/Phone £60 per month
Council Tax £220 per month
TV Licence £12 something per month

[knowabit]

On top of rent we pay monthly:
Elec £65
Gas £42
Water £44
CTax £170
TV Licence £12
Virgin £80

Crikey evian...are you in a detached property?

[Purple_Popple]

My last quarter gas bill was £110

[Old_Geezer]

Well it was the winter quarter. Maybe should have got the oven seal fixed quicker ?

[EvianBaby]

It's end of terrace, PP. Not sure how much difference that makes.

[EvianBaby]

I barely use the oven OG :)

That will help in your quest for lurve (maybe don't be wearing them in your profile pic eh).

[ummmm]

Big difference, Evian. The house next door keeps your heat in.
