Haven't been unable to log in to account for several days - message on screen reads
'Sorry, we're having technical problems at the moment
Either stay on this page and try again in a few moments, or please try again later.'
Trying to get in to account to check meter readings as have been unable to read electricity smart meter for several weeks - message on read panel is 'withdrawal' no numbers and pressing button makes no difference. Phone agent insisted account was 'in order', not to worry as meter was connected
but had no answer as to why I cannot get reading.
Am totally fed up with BG on line since their so called 'improved' system and website.

Been on the British gas website to do our meter reading. Following the email we got. The message on the website says there doing important upgrades. Funny how British gas are doing upgrades to their systems just before the new gas prices up. Just like the last time prices went up.

HTTP response status code is a 3-digit code returned by the server indicating the status of the request. The code is typically accompanied by a message that provides additional information about the response such as:
  • 2XX - Successful - Website is up & reachable.

  • 3XX - Redirect - The website is accessible, but the browser is redirected to another page.

  • 4XX - Browser Error - The requested page is not available or doesn’t exist.

  • 5XX - Server Error - There are internal errors on the server.

The status code helps developers and users to understand what’s happening with a certain request. This also serves as a guide to take appropriate actions if needed.

The HTTP response time is the amount of time it takes a website to respond to a request made by your device. It calculates how long it takes for a website to load after you click on a link or type a URL into your browser.
