Change to Ebico
I am thinking of changing my dual fuel supplier. On the comparison sites Ebico look very competitive but I have read a couple of comments that they are not a suitable supplier if you are a high user, which unfortuantely I am, although I am trying to reduce this. Their website doesn't specify any limits so what do these…
