Is anyone with this gas company I read it on this forum posted by Energised that it is a great rate 2.55. per kwh flate rate, All methods . I cannot find it again and would like to know what you think of it. At the moment I am with Powergen for both gas and elec. Thanks

I've just switched from Powergen to EBiCo http://www.ebico.co.uk/
I've had no problems switching over, but yet to see how they do. Worth a try, it's easy to switch to another if you're not satisfied (or until they put prices up)!

I have been with them 7 months, gas and leccy, no problems just signed up on their site and they did the rest.
BG were naughty though supplying inflated estimated final bills, but savings around 25% for moi.

AFAIK they have only increased prices one time in nearly 3 yrs. They give best savings for people who like the old quarterly cash/cheque payments and especially for low useage, but are cheaper for all users, not having any form of standing charge, so easy to calculate bills too. Billed through Southern Electric.

Not all comparison sites list Ebico, I used Energyline for my comparisons, link in resouces bar above ( helps MSE too).

I signed up with Ebico one month ago. I received confirmation on a postcard around Christmas, and apart from two begging letters from my current supplier NPower, informing me of the switch and asking me to stay, nothing else from Ebico.

I know that the process must be in motion because of the letters from NPower. But how long does it usually take to switch? The website said about two weeks. Although there was Christmas in between, it's been one month.

I've been with Ebico for the past two and a half years - no problems and a simple straight forward price. After Powergen making a right mess of monthly direct debit schemes and massive credit building up, it was a nice change to receive a quarterly bill for what I'd actually used. I'm also able to pay my bill in cash at my local paypoint agent without being charged further.

This seems to be fairly normal for switchs to Ebico. My switch took about 4 to 5 weeks but after the initial postcard, there was nothing until the actual switch.
