I already had my gas connection cut off. Use 4G for internet because the wired ISPs here are shit for various reasons. The only things going in/out of my house that I use are clean/dirty water and electricity.
Solar/battery possibly with a petrol generator backup would allow cutting off the mains electricity too. The daily service charge just to have a mains connection costs as much per year as buying a petrol generator. As long as you don’t need to use much petrol then it rapidly becomes a pretty reasonable choice.
I suppose it depends what export tariffs are like, if they pay you a decent amount for sending energy back then it might cover the service charge for having a grid connection. If it doesn’t, get fucked. Disconnect me, I ain’t paying.
