UK sites with metered electricity

Me too, although I don’t care either way about metering.

I’m not sure about the correlation either, but unfortunately have come across the problem on several occasions.

As long it was an accurate meter and the scale of charges were fair what's not to like about it, as you only pay for what you use. I am sure it would serve to make people more frugal also, which can only be a  good thing. 

We infrequently use club sites with facilities but have seen this problem at the few that we have used, and reported the condition to the wardens at the time. 

I too am not sure there is a direct correlation but there seems to be a disregard by a few members of what is acceptable practice on club sites, be it leaving the facilities in a sorry state or taking advantage "free" charging. However that is just my perception of how things are.

What do you mean by the scale of charges?

Well I can honestly say that it wouldn't for me, we would, have done in fact when metered on holiday (though not in caravan), use the same amount of electricity meter or not. I'm on holiday to enjoy myself not to worry about switching things off all the time and even leaving them on to serve a purpose. Same as at home.

The meter has to be accurate (calibrated) and the charge per kWh can be no more than the secondary supplier (the club) pays the primary supplier. Offgem regulations enforce this and it's one reason reselling electricity is not straightforward.

As any site staff will tell ,off peak the condition of the facility black is normally not that bad except  very few understand what that the brush in its container beside the toilet pan, in both ladies and gents ,is there for the use of all site users not just the site staff when on cleaning (Happy hours)

And in peak. times  when no one knows when they are closed for cleaning? but there is always some looking at watches when they are expecting them to be open

As some site staff will tell users ,in those circumstances "we clean to a standard not a timetable"

Obviously, some customers use them to a timetable, not a standard😉

We don't tend to use site toilets so I probably don't see the situation being described...
I (we) can't see the point of walking to a facs block when we have a perfectly good toilet aboard...especially in colder/wetter weather....and unless folk are not using the van toilet 'at all'...it will need to emptied at some point..and if it has to be emptied, does it make any difference what comes out of it?

...but I can (sort of) see a tenuous link between 'things' that some folk don't care too much about...it's probably because they don't care too much about any 'thing' other than themselves?💁
