Hi all, Live in a two bed flat in London on dual fuel with nPower and keen to investigate switching. Due to move to new flat in 3 weeks time.

Eon joint account?
Morbid question maybe? I have recently retired and all my married life I have dealt with the bills, all in my name only.

To the Eon rep how…
