On the front of your meter somewhere there will be a little red light that flashes every so often. This is the impulse light and it will flash 1000 times per kWh of electric used.
If you use £4.00 by the time you get up, that's about 10kWh of electricity, plus the standing charge. In, say, 8 hours, that light will flash 10,000 times or once every 3 seconds at the rate you seem to be racking it up. Can you see the meter and see how often that light flashes? Then go round, pulling all the plugs, or turning off breakers one by one and try and identify if turning anything off causes the flashing to slow right down. That will help you identify what's eating your electric. Your gas doesn't seem too bad to me.

Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player. I DON'T work for or on behalf of EON.Next, but am willing to try and help if I can. Not on mains gas, mobile network or mains drainage. House heated almost entirely by baby dragons.
