Energy Suppliers

Wow, prices have shot up since last year. Looks like I'm due to be paying about £150 more per year.

Can anybody find a lower night time tariff than 5.95p per kWh of electricity? We're paying through the nose because of storage heaters, and whilst we'll be getting CH installed, it's going to be possibly a year before we do, and another Winter with these things will cost a fortune.

Wow, it's come time to renew my energy and I've been using the MSE Cheap Energy Club, and nothing is close to a saving at all, I am with EDF at the moment and everything is minimum £190 per year more expensive.

If I stay with EDF energy it appears there next deal is the cheapest by a long shot.

Comparing all the costs as well it seems it's swings and roundabouts, some charges are marginally cheaper with EDF compared to swithcing to the cheapest listed on CEC. Minefield.

Think yourself lucky, I've just redone mine and the best deal I could find is going to cost me around 20% more

Mine runs out next month, I am not looking forward to running the quotes.

Yay to imported fuel with a weak £, smart meters and failed energy efficiency schemes. 2/3 no one actually wants.

Oh well, I should take some comfort then that I'm not getting a bad deal considering we live in a similar part of the country, it's just that after looking at some of the deals people got recently I thought I was being fleeced but it must be a geographical thing.

Changed to Scottish power after a letter of 9% hike with eon.

I've just instructed Tonik to be my supplier, 100% renewable but will be costing me £170 a year more than last year. Avro was the cheapest at £140 a year more than last year.

Same with Avro now. Price has gone up £150 :/

I just went with Green Star energy, over £100 a year cheaper than Scottish Power

I use whatever the MSE Energy Club tells me to. Saved me over £30 a month last year, got a few months left with Sainsbury's energy before I'll be switching again.

i had to estimate my usage. think i ended up on an okay'ish deal but better ones out there for me now. £20 early exit fees for both gas and leccy. so i'd need to save at least £50 a year to make it worthwhile switching mid way through my current deal. MSE energy club is the go to place. anyone not using it probably should.

ChrisD. · 31 May 2017 at 12:51

I've just used it again to switch to a new Sainsbury's tariff, it's not as good as the previous deal but only works out £7 a month more expensive. However I will get a £100 gift card which makes it cheaper overall.

ValiantUK91 · 31 May 2017 at 18:59

Gone with sainsburys also, missed the email off of Npower about lrices rising. Switched to sainsburys and paying £30p/m less than Npower after the price hike.

Everyone wacking it up before the Tory price cap. Thanks UK gov.

2013 · 17 Jan 2018 at 15:55

Time to switch any suggestion ?

Maybe eon or OVO

bloodiedathame · 17 Jan 2018 at 15:56

I'm with Tonik, 100% renewable. Can give you a referral if you wish. Or have a look at Bulb and see if they are cheaper.

Not sure.

Some more of their benefits:
-3% interest reward on credit balance
-No minimum term or exit fees
