E.ON Prices per kWh
I've been trying to find out the difference in prices between the different plans. Anyone know how to get them? Nowhere on their site does it give a break down.

Changing electricity supplier - cost of electricity
I quote from a recent article in the Telegraph (Business section): "Under OFGEM rules, customers have a 30 day period to decide to switch to rival suppliers after a price rise is announced.........
