shopping for a supplier by kilowatt hour price
Is there anywhere that I can compare utility companies by actual price? I haven't been able to find anywhere that actually publishes the prices they sell their product at. I want to know what each supplier sells their kilowatt hours of energy at. It seems totally inaccurate otherwise and seems like they are making it up as…

Understating reading
I have been trying to switch my gas account since 30 Mar. Due to various misunderstandings (not by me) it will finally switch on 10 Jul. I now have to provide a meter reading. I feel that an under reading would mean paying less for some of my recent usage, and make up for some of the inconvenience and extra cost involved.…

Received gas bill - but on pre-payment meter?? Help!
Hi, I wondered if anyone could help me or has had a similar experience. I am on a pre-payment gas meter, which I don't particularly want to be on as it costs more, but is kind of handy knowing exactly where I'm at with my money and not getting a bill.

British Gas Rip Off
I am fuming! I had yet another estimated bill today (underestimated as usual) So I have read my meter and sent them the details so they can wait for their money. They are so crafty because the estimated bills are invariably sent out in the summer months. I am sure this is because they know that they are going to give us…

Confused by Eon - What Am I Really Using?!
Can anyone help me make sense of this please? I was paying £45pm for an all electric flat by DD to Eon for the last two years. I found I was in credit a couple of times so decided to "treat myself" to some heating the winter just gone which used this up. Without this, my average usage was around £35 - £40pm. I'm now in an…

Is there a limit to amount of times switch supplier in one year?
I have received substantial cashback from switching energy suppliers from Quidco - last one £60 for BG. I was just wondering, is there anything to stop you continually switching, waiting for the cashback to be paid and then switching again?
