Step 1: Agree on How to Split Bills

Before setting anything up, talk to your housemates and decide:
✅ Who will be responsible for each bill?
✅ How will payments be tracked?
✅ Will you split everything equally?

Apps like Housr help you manage shared costs easily, and Housr Bills eliminates stress by handling payments for you!

Step 2: Compare Providers

If you’re sorting bills yourself, use price comparison sites like Uswitch or CompareTheMarket to find the best deals on:

  • Energy (gas & electricity)
  • Water
  • Broadband & TV packages

Don’t forget to check for student discounts on internet and utilities!

Step 3: Set Up Direct Debits

Avoid missed payments (and annoying late fees) by setting up direct debits for all your bills. This ensures:

  • Payments are made on time.
  • You don’t have to chase housemates for money.
  • You stay on top of your budget.

Step 4: Consider a Bills Package

Want to skip the admin and avoid managing multiple accounts? Housr Bills rolls everything into one simple monthly payment, covering:
✅ Energy
✅ Water
✅ Broadband
✅ TV license (in some cases)

No surprises, no stress—just one fixed bill each month!
