Eon Prepay Meter - sky high lecky costs
We were getting huge electricity bills with Eon, which seemed far too high considering there's only 2 people in the house and we don't have an electric cooker, washing machine, or any particularly high usage items. Anyway, they'd only check for faults with the meter if we'd pay over £100 for the service. We couldn't run to…

Lekkie prices in Hydro Area
Just been sorting through a comparison site as it's time to change supplier (will be switching to EDF as they are the cheapest...beat BG by a whisker). Whilst checking out the cost of the tariffs I compared the costs of six suppliers BG/Npower/EDF/SSE/Scot Power/Eon. In doing so I knocked up a wee reckoner on Excel and…

How does NPower compare with its competitors?
We are looking to switch our gas/electricity suppliers soon and go onto a direct debit scheme (realising this is the way forward when it comes to saving money on our bills).

Fools at Atlantic Electric & Gas
Up until a year ago when we switched, we had our leccy and gas with Atlantic. I return home from work today to find a letter from them, out of the blue, threatening me with legal action unless I paid an 'unpaid bill' within 48 hours of 'receiving this letter'. Given that: 1) They haven't provided us with any utilities for…

I'm a new Gas & Electricity customer - Where do I start?
Hi, I have just moved into a rented flat in SW19 and want to know how I can go about finding the best deal on gas & electricity. The previous occupant used NPower, ... but when I moved in everything was already on. Does this mean I am already paying for the utilities even though I am yet to agree to anything? I am very…

Switching Gas/Electric - how long does it take?
I'm tied into a 12 month contract with Scottish Power, which finishes at the end of August - if I was to sign up with someone else now, how long will it take to transfer over?

Can I do this via the website to get the cashback or is that not allowed if you are already a customer with the company offering…

Does anyone know how my situation will be resolved.

Hi everyone I have heard the term "12 month rule" bandied around a few times on the forums, usually in relation to large estimated bills that are being contested once the real reading has been given.. would anyone be kind enough to elaborate and let me know what services (eg both gas and electric? ) it may apply to ..any…

New Electric Cooker - Should we expect much change to our bills?
Our 25 year old electric cooker which my parents bought when they got married has finally given up and died so we've replaced it with a brand new B rated one (would have gone for A but they were too expensive). It has a fan oven, grill and a glass-ceramic top (4 radiant heat coils, not halogen). It will be used pretty much…
