what is the point of having cake if you can't eat it as well ?
This is getting ridiculous (energy prices - Strictly NO referrals!)

Got my email from Bulb anyway. If every supplier is charging the same why not just nationalise now?

Are you closing the washing machine door and drawer after the wash?
If so, it helps to leave both open for a while to let it dry out quicker and prevent mould.

New prices in for October, and with the new energy price guarantee coupled with the £400 support, we are now being asked to pay £40 less per month.
Wasn't expecting that...
For context, it's a 4 bed detached house (gas central heating) and we're now paying £211 per month for gas and electricity.

The 158Kwh Gas do the calculation say 10L/min shower for 4 minutes , water heated from 20C from 20-40C => 40L * 20C / 860 = 0.93Kwh
so 158Kwh = 6 showers a day , or 3 x 8 minute showers, or 4 x 4 minutes showers @15L/min
In winter time if the incoming waters gone down to 10C the shower price goes up 50%
Octopus had wanted to buy bulbs(solr) customers to get a bigger share of the market (if the govt gave them 4Bn was it -lol) , but with the govt cap it's no longer an issue, everyones levelled
(so could have been a judicious move by govt)
I think Octopus will get out of the business and just sell their software package, EDF's economy 7 ,new rates look close to octopus go, anyway, with low overnight rates.
the add on mechanism should be the same as just turning on the tap at a slow rate for 30s or so.

#metoo - not sure if you can now jump ship to EDF / one of the big guys

adverts says it's the same as a pre-heat ... we just get into the habit of turning pre-heat on 20mins or so before folks usually shower.

can use a flannel to take off most of the water - makes the shower+drying turnaround faster, towels/bathmat don't get sodden ... and last several weeks (I do this for trips to swimming pool too)
Yeah don't close the washer door.. Let the drum air out for an hour or so.
I tend to leave mine slightly a jar, most of the time, rather than clicking it closed.

What is irritating is that, for Eon Next anyways, they don't show the SVR rates once you are on a fixed tariff and I cannot find a way to see them.
Anyone on EonNext Flex and have the new Oct unit rates?

Just switched to it today, from the fixed that I thought was a good call given Jan/April.. Anyways, I’ve now got:
Electric
Unit: 27.36
Sc: 48.53
Gas
Unit: 7.28
Sc: 27.22

Those are the current SVR cap rates for the Yorkshire region (which I assume is where you are).
Unlikely to be significantly different than anyone else.
Mine's with BG
32.12p day rate. 20.7 night
And 38p SC.
A little result as I was expecting 34p/kwh.
Mine is yeah. No EV.
Soldato
So is it worth reverting to the current cap if I am eon next v 13?
Paying 39p electricity, 10p gas at the minute.

If your tariff is more than the Government Energy Price Guarantee prices your supplier will adjust accordingly. Your gas price may already be lower than the guarantee.
Isn't that fraud?
Do you shove a few extra items down your trackies when you go shopping too?
Soldato
Has the PM announced officially that there will be a energy price cap freeze for 1 year?
Permabanned
Only if you get caught.

Has anyone who is on Eon Next got a letter or response back about the standard charges and or response to those who just fixed before govt announcement?
I contacted them straight away after fixing and when the govt suggested they would intervene, they told me they'd be in touch with all their customers who recently fixed to let them know what is happening, with potential of changing the deal.
Still no word.

Well no, it is still fraud whether he gets caught or not.
