Add your feedback on energy supplier Green Star Energy

They came up cheapest for me on Energy club so I took a look at their website as I like to compare the actual until prices. I cannot find the prices on their site at all despite looking and looking. Either I'm making a mistake, or they are deliberating difficult to find. This has put me off from the outset.

Also I find it confusing that Co-op have/had a tariff called Pioneer and to start with I thought they were the same but now I realise (I think) that they are completely different.

We too found this highly listed by all the compare sites, so emailed them for more info as we are on an IGT (Independent Gas Transporter's) network. Very prompt and polite reply telling us that they could not supply us:


"Thank you for your interest in Pioneer Energy. If your gas supply is served by an Independent Gas Transporter's (IGT) network rather than Transco, as a small supplier, we are unable to quote for the gas supply. You can get further information from the following link:[FONT=&quot] < (not allowed by MSE! - but in fact the energylinx.co.uk link) >[/FONT]"


Also, as with 'Dustykitten', we discovered that they are not (as standard) competitive for electricity, but are consequently an even better deal for gas alone. We presently have a split deal anyway as (much to the surprise it seems of the comparison sites a year ago), this has always proved cheaper, if a bit more cumbersome than dual fuels.

However, still too early it seems for reviews to list them for service factors etc. ... and regrettably no use to us, till they get bigger!

Hi all,

If you do want to see what your rates would be on Pioneer, just click the Enroll button, fill out the first page to detail what services you require and click Begin. The very next page shows the rates for your area, and you can simply close the browser after that while you consider your options. Nothing will happen until several steps later, when you would be asked to review and confirm.

Good Luck!!

Applied to switch on 5/10/2013. Very prompt and easily understood e-mail confirming gas supply only within a couple of days.Seem to be well organised and efficient.
Switch from Scottish Power appears to be going smoothly. At the time of application their charges for a 2year fix were were amongst the cheapest and these have been confirmed @Unit Rate: 3.812 p/kWh,Standing Charge: 22.32 p/day. Were not that cheap on electricity and for that I have gone to EDF with cash back from the energy club. Will report further should I experience any difficulties
