    If you go to the the energyhelpline site and get a quote you can enter SOL 10 as your current tariff. Then when you get the list of other quotes, there's a link near the top of the page that says
    "To view your current tariff details click here."
    to tell you what the actual figures are for SOL10.

    It's a roundabout way of doing it and it relies on a third party web site to have up to date figures, but I tried it for SOL12 and the figures they gave agreed with the official figures I got from npower themselves a couple of days later (when I finally managed to get through to speak to a human).

    FYI, the increases on the SOL12 tariff were way above their headline figure of 14%. For instance, if you use 5000 units a year the increase was 46%.

    I'm on SOL12, I got hit with a 66% increase, mainly because they changed their rate structure, as well as their rates.
    Is this allowed?

    I'm on SOL 8 and my electric unit prices has increased by 99%!!!! effectively doubling my electric bill.
    When I pointed out how large the increase was they merely told me it was still competitive.
    I'm now changing to Click 5 even though it's yet to rise I hope it won't go up as much.
  • I was on n-power sign online 11 and yep new prices will push us to £450 annually from £350 due to new structure.I dont know whether to go BG click 5 with rises imminent,edf 2009 protection fixed which would keep annual bill about same or southern electric .Chances are as you say even when BG put up prices I /we will still be paying less than if we stayed with npower-however in jan if BG hike rates again i think things will be pretty much equal and then fixed would have been way to go for piece of mind for the rest of 2009??Mike
  • I just checked and OMG -

    Old tariff are as follows :
    GAS UNIT RATE (INC vat) UPTO AND INCLUDING 4572kWh/YEAR 5.480p
    UNIT RATE OVER 4572kWh/YEAR 1.710p

    ELEC UNIT RATE (INC vat) UPTO AND INCLUDING 728kWh/YEAR 11.22p
    UNIT RATE OVER 728kWh/YEAR 8.93p

    New rates on SOL10
    GAS (INC vat) FOR 1st 1143kWh PER QUARTER YEAR 7.210p +32%
    UNIT RATE OVER 2.143p +25%

    ELEC UNIT RATE (INC vat) FOR 1st 182kWh PER QUARTER 12.611p +12%
    UNIT RATE OVER 11.246p +26%
