Cheap Energy Club inaccuracies
I joined the Cheap Energy Club when it was first set up and have followed it with enthusiasm. However, my current deal.'Online fixed price energy October 2014' with Scottish power is now coming to an end and the CEC reckons that I can save £287 a year if I switch, Sounds good, but it isn't, when I check out the figures. I…

Flow Frustration
Anyone else have Flow Energy as dual-fuel supplier? If so you'll know that it's impossible on their website to click through to your actual energy consumption when you check your on-line account - just your monthly debit/credit. I first raised this with them months ago, when they acknowledged that there was a temporary…

UK seeks extra power for winter
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-29038804 I can't say I'm surprised. We are shutting down power stations faster than they are being replaced, mostly to meet EU rules. I don't believe Green Energy can ever meet the full demand. Solar is no use at night, when the temperature is coldest and it's dark (so more need for…

Heating controls
I wonder if anyone has any input. Situation: twenty two radiators, although only 50%ish of these are used most of the time, one oil boiler. TRVs on 80% of them. 24 hour programmer on the boiler. Beefy 12kW wood stove in the lounge. What I want: TRVs throughout the house and decent control over zoning so I can turn off the…

nPower want to replace my electric meeter - what's the catch?
Hiya An unsolicited call today from nPower (they are our suppliers) saying they want to replace our electric meter because it's at the end of it's useful life (I've no idea if it is or not!) Is this a way of selling me a new high tech meter, or is it some EU obligation they have that I've never heard of? Any advice would…

Scottish Power switch nos make no sense!
I was recently alerted by MSE energy club that my Scottish Power duel fuel tariff was no longer competitive, so like a good MSEr I decided to take action. Among the best options suggested was another Scottish Power Tariff which would save £25 per month without too much switching hassle I thought. Scottish Power website…

EDF - You've got to laugh!
Just had my annual statement. They owe me over £800. Yippee! Funny thing is though, they're putting up my DD by £18 pm. On closer inspection, the statement only relates to gas (I'm dual fuel), so I guess the £800+ will be swallowed up in part when - or if - they send the electricity component of the bill. The only mention…

New energy customer
Hello, I am basically a real newbie to all things grown up and am struggling to understand how to sign up with an energy company as a new customer. I am moving in to my first house on Friday and don't currently have any energy account in my name. I have done the usual comparison and switch searches but I am unsure how it…

Solar panels - Ecowatt or Salcon Power (HK) Ltd
Hi All, Please can some shed some light on this. We are in the process of buying a house with solar panels on the roof. They are apparently managed by Ecowatt, who have apparently take over management of the panels from Salcon Power (HK) Ltd. Is this true? We have not seen any paperwork saying this and Ecowatt are not…

Removing pay as you go meter.
Me and my other half have recently rented a flat that has a prepaid meter installed that is with NPower. I have read that NPower will charge to replace the meter with a standard one. We haven't moved in yet and have no desire of wanting to keep the pre-paid meter. I've been looking into changing to another supplier that…

Smart Meter Install Failure
They came today to install my smart meter but they couldn't do it because the mobile data connection wasn't good enough. I am with Tesco that uses O2 and they also use O2, near the consumer unit I get one or two bars on my phone but apparently this wasn't good enough for them. Sometime before the end of the year I expect…

isupply refund/DD reduction offer - is this the best I can get?
Hi Moneysavers, Since I switched to iSupply I've contested the level of the DD payment, my account currently is £305+ in credit and, ideally, I would like all of this back and my DD reduced to reflect approximately my level of usage which is low. Should I accept this latest offer from them or not? Any comments/advice would…

EDF Blue Prices on the move
The EDF website is showing yet another B/price tariff Fix - October 2016, but although it's listed there are no price details or conditions available and it is not yet 'live'. It is however a warning to those customers on the August 2015 tariff who have not yet moved onto the February 2016 tariff which has exactly the same…

Scottish Gas and Warrant of Entry
Due to unemployment and lack of cash I was not able to pay gas/electricity for a year, thankfully I am on track and now working. Scottish Gas had applied for a Warrant to enter my house, I have phoned them and set up a payment plan for the electricity, I owed them £720 so have set up to pay £95 each month. For the Gas I…

My switch to Co-op
Well something is happening, I went to Eon's site to input my 1st of the month readings and got We're sorry but we're no longer able to accept meter readings for this account. Please contact your new supplier with your reading. Yet I've not heard anything from the Co-op since my welcome email. I also cannot log into my new…
