sent you mine by trust. Nothing but praise for them really. Waiting on a smart meter still as no appointments in my area with Covid still apparently but it’s easy enough to do readings with the app.

Thanks, I've not received anything. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. I'll message you.

Can someone send me an Octopus link.

Going to be looking for gas and elec provider soon. Not had to do that for a few years now so well out of the loop!

Sent via trust. Any questions on using them then let me know. Big fan of theirs having moved from SSE and EDF over the years.

No worries. I rarely check this thread but weirdly been in a few times today as been a quiet day at work!

Cheapest for me are coming out as E.On and ShellEnery with Eon being a tiny bit cheaper. Anyone experience of these or just go for the cheapest?

Just left Eon, did my head on constantly telling me I HAD to have a smart meter fitted.

I'm with eon and just let them fit the smart meters.
Didn't cost me anything or affect me

Getting a smart meter installed from Bulb next Friday, says it'll take 3-4 hours to install.

My gas is with Ebico, a white label supplier of Robin Hood Energy, Just had an email this morning saying Robin Hood Energy and all it's white label suppliers are being sold to British Gas. No way am I paying a penny to British Gas so I need to switch my gas ASAP before the transfer completes with BG.

Any good gas-only suppliers out there? or suppliers that allow only gas transfers as most seem to want your leccy or leccy&gas, not just gas. And any referral codes?

If not then I'll just transfer my gas to Bulb where I already have my leccy.

Any reason you don't have both from the same supplier?

I had no standing charge with Ebico which is great during summer months as near-zero gas bill.

Looking at Bulb where I have my leccy, there appears to be no way to add/transfer in my gas account.

I would call or email them, not having both with the same supplier is pretty rare these days.

If I could be bothered to separate my gas and electric to different suppliers for maximum savings, I would save about 2.99% from the cheapest price that Uswitch currently offer.

It's easier for me just to have them combined with the same supplier, even if it is a little more expensive in the long run.

LeeUK · 5 Sep 2020 at 17:33

Yes I have decided to just bring my gas onboard with my leccy at Bulb, they just don't seem to have the option to add my gas account other than signing up as a new dual fuel customer again on their website. Until I can phone them on Monday.

kk555 · 7 Sep 2020 at 18:24

i am with bulb energy and there prices are coming down in october

MarkeR · 8 Sep 2020 at 11:50

ANyone using OutFox for elec and gas? Standing charge is way lower than my Npower charges, fuel charges also!

If they do referrals, i'll gladly take one.

Thanks

Contacted Bulb and they have manually transferred my gas into my account. Should be switched by 28th Sep.

BG ain't getting their grubby hands on my utilities!

Also I'm due to give a meter reading to Ebico as my next quarterly bill is due but the online account management site has been down since yesterday. Looks like they are shutting up shop early. Heh
