Npower's Go Fix 8 tariff - £100 voucher - Existing customer
Hi all I am slightly confused. The latest round of Martin's email says that if you go switch to Npower's Go Fix 8 tariff via one of the comparison sites you'd get £100 voucher.

Atlantic bonus payments
I currently have my gas and electricity from Atlantic, the tariff i'm on gives me a refund annually of one months average payment for both as a sort of bonus so effectively I get 13 months for the price of 12.

Should I fix and take a loss just now of £130?
Done a few comparisons. I'm on NPower duel fuel SOL 22. My cheapest comparison still says I'll be minus -£50, however we know prices are going to keep rising. Do you think I should fix with Npower til 2013 on their Go Fix 8 and take a current loss of -£130? Then sit tight and watch prices rise? Advice appreciated.
