[access-uk] Re: reading metres

Hi Steve,
Hear Hear I once said I didn't need sighted help and lost a good friend over it it was a bit silly of me to say this at the time as we all need some help at some time or other. 

I have some sighted pals as well and am glad I do.
I on the other hand like to think I'm as independent as I can be all the best.

Hi Christopher,

What's so bad about asking for sighted help?  Are we saying here that we
never see anyone sighted that could help us, and that we trust?  We're a sad
lot indeed<Smile>.  Seriously though, I get worried when we want to try to
do everything without sighted help.  What happened to social interaction?
Thank goodness I have a good few sighted friends.

All the best

Steve

Hello Yusuf,

If you want to find ways of saving money on your energy bills, take a look
at

www.uswitch.com

Choosing energy suppliers and payment type is quite a minefield.  I
used to use different companies for gas and electricity, but now have
a single supplier.  Sometimes I have paid quarterly, and other times
monthly.

Many companies offer customers a discount if they enter their meter
readings on-line.  For those of us who cannot see to read a meter, it
would be good if there were some way of getting a meter reading
without having to ask for sighted help!

Cheers,

Christopher

Hi Dave, thanks for that. I may have to look around then because my
electricity company Good Energy will only come out once ay year, the
gas company comes out once every 3 months and I think the same
applies for water. Although I don't think its possible to change
water companies.
