EDF Says I'm Being Scammed
I've been with Scottish Power for a while, but after the MSE newsletter said it was time to switch, I used the suggested price comparison website and it advised me that Eon was one of the cheapest for my area and usage. I'm in the process of switching. Yesterday I got a cold-caller at my door promoting EDF. He reckoned the…

Scottish Power... bargain
I think I've found myself an absolute bargain on switching gas/electric. Had a call from Scottish Power and eventually managed to bargain them down to £32.76 p/m (for both and with only 1 DD!) :T - I kept telling them that I could get the same deal plus cashback if I changed online using one of the cashback sites!!…

nPower - switch or stay ?
We have a dual fuel deal with nPower and pay by direct debit. We're looking to change BUT nPower has just written offering us an annual discount of £80 off our next bill (£40 for gas, £40 for electricity), so I guess this is not the time to switch ??

Ridiculous gas bill - advice?!
First time posting on this board! We've just received a really, really high gas bill from npower. The readings are done with our own meter readings, so must be right - but we have been charged over £1000 for 9 months, which to me is screaming that there is something not right in the house. We've not had the boiler serviced…

But I'm quite interested in how many times and how often people have switched suppliers...

They have recently been in touch to say that we have never been charged for electricity and that an 'adjustment' needs to be made. They have totally admitted that the fault is theirs…

under-estimated power bill for years - do I have any rights?
This morning I got a power bill for £2,000. I had just recently sent in a customer meter reading, which I double-checked this morning and it seems to have been more or less correct.
