I knew our electricity contract was up for renewal in April. As that time was approaching I decided to start shopping around for the best deal to renew.

Scottish Power Rip Off
I think Scottish Power have tried to pull a fast one on me. I moved into my new home in August and started my supply with Scottish Power in October; as we had no supply history to speak of I was asked a number of questions to assist Scottish Power to estimate our usage and set up a direct debit of 30 pounds per month.…

Been with Ebico for over 1 year - never received single bill
As per title. I also noticed that my meter still displays a very old tariff from 2001 - at the time we paid 6p/kWh. Does this mean they never updated the price and we get it cheaper than we should ?:eek:

E.ON Electric Meter Underpaid
We recently had new key electric meter to replace the old card type. We have now received a letter saying that we owe e.on £250 because they didn't update the pricing on the old meter and that they are taking £5 extra from our meter for 52 weeks to repay it. Am i right in thinking that i can avoid paying this money as it…

British Gas - only bill....
Hey, I'm new to this so apologies for any forum faux pas. We moved house mid Dec 2006 to a house that was currently on a pre payment gas meter. We requested for this to be changed and in Jan it was changed to an ordinary meter system. However, the helpful contractor that fitted our meter failed to inform British Gas that…

Direct debit "error" by Atlantic
Couldn't see if this has been covered elsewhere, but when I checked my recent gas bill/statement from Atlantic I noticed that their calculation for my future monthly direct debit was wrong. Basically, they appear to look at your past 12 months usage, assume you'll use the same amount (probably quite reasonable) and thereby…

British Gas got me over a barrel...I need help
Hi, British Gas recently hiked up my monthly payment to more than double that what I currently paying. This increase was beyond my means and after some calculations more than double worth what I use on average plus anyone I think that lives on their own in a small terrace house!! In fear of the DD puting me in the red…

Direct Debit Cancelled by BG after refund
Hello Apologies if this has already been raised but I have checked through the search for similar threads. I have just discovered that BG has cancelled the direct debit for my monthly payment plan and didn't tell me about this. I have called BG "customer services (CS)" and was told that their system does this if you have…

British Gas Click Tariffs
I am currently on Click 4 Tariff (Duel Fuel) with British Gas. What difference is there between Click 4 & Click 5 Tariffs ? I have e-mailed British Gas requesting the differences, but the only replies have been that I can change to Click 5 energy via the website. This has not answered my question. Is it worth changing to…

Npower & is it worth switching
Hi All, I would be grateful if somebody could help me. I am currently with Npower for both Gas and Electric and am at the end of my tether with them. Whilst my Electric has remained consistent at £15 a month Direct Debit, my Gas has gone up from £15 to £26 to £46 a month. The reason why my gas has gone up so much is that…

Clueless with Gas and Elec
To cut a long story short when I bought my house it had an electricity prepayment meter installed and a normal gas meter. By default I have them both through Scottish Gas - the prepayment meter is the key type but I realise I am probably paying more for this than I really should. I also want to look at moving suppliers but…

Reclaiming money from Scottish Power
I'm feeling inspired to get some of my money back and was directed towards this site by a friend. About three years ago Scottish Power started writing me letters saying I owed them about £340 for electricity owed at a student house I once lived in. From Sept 2002 to August 2003 - the back story being that my name was on…

British Gas - no standing charge
Hi can anyone help? I was told about the BG essential tariff - which although I am not on benefits I was told it was available to me (yet the discussions on the forum seem to say it is for people on benefits:confused: ) and that I would not get charged a standing charge(which seemed a good idea). These now seem to me to be…
