offer from British Gas
Hi Martin, Today I have received an offer from British Gas to sign up until April 2007 by paying a small price protection payment of 3.5% on my current gas price (this means they say I will pay an average of 29p per week) Even if gas prices go up I will not pay the higher price. In the event I want to leave before 2007 I…

Electric Key Cards - The Best Rates
I've just moved house and am using an electric key card meter for the first time. I've also found out through playing with the meter a hidden charge :( We are being charged £1.01 a week for this facility, which comes off our credit balance. So £52.52 a year to put our own electric on. Is this right? Do all suppliers with…

Central Heating Maintenance Contract Help
Does anyone know of a cheaper alternative to British Gas for their “HomeCare Central Heating Care” or maintenance? As the contract I have with them has just nearly doubled in price as I have two boilers on one hot water/radiator system.

Check your direct debits with Scottish Power
I recently switched my dual fuel account from Scottish Power to Powergen. I checked the direct debits that SP had set up with my bank, and found that SP had been taking some payments twice. They had set up three direct debits, one for gas, one electricity, and one dual fuel, instead of one for dual fuel. I rang their…

Scottishpower Outrage!!
I'm in the process of switching from Scottishpower online to Powergen. Scottishpower have prevented me from accessing any of my account details, even though the transfer is not complete. Since the entire account was online, this means i have no record of any financial exchanges with them. Worse still: two unexplained…

door to door energy sales
I have just had my lunch interupted by a very pushy, gobby young sales man knocking at my door asking me about my energy provider. I was confident in Martin's advice about the whole energy switching business and I used, on behalf of my mum and dad, the Energyhelpline site to change suppliers. We moved to Powergen and apart…

Conserving energy in a Conservatory
I have a conservatory attached to the back of my new home. Now it’s really started to get cold I have noticed a build up of condensation on the glass roof, obviously from the moisture from the house. I have found that using an electric heater helps, however it uses up LOTS of electricity. Does anyone have any experience…

Sainbury's Energy
Apologies if this has already been asked - couldn't see anything about it....... Does anyone know if the Sainsbury's Energy deal is any good. This is for cheaper Gas & Electric. I know I need to change suppliers, at moment with British Gas for both, but before I commit to switching to Sainsbury's, thought I would check if…

Confused by Uswitch ?
If you like me, are becoming suspicious of Uswitch's accuracy. The search results, using constant data, seems to vary wildly on a daily basis. And also it seems restrictive when you are trying to find the actual account you are currently on - powergen ONLINE never seems to be an option. You may wish to try an alternative…
