Huge Bill Scottish Power

EON fixed tarrif, not so fixed!
Went through the energy saving club earlier this year, and EON 'claimed' they could put me on a fixed 12 month tariff at £32.50, as I was paying £50 a month to my current supplier (this was far outweighing any usage and built up a healthy excess) I moved. All was well, until I entered my meter readings, then I had an email…

ScottishPower - hopeless. Want to switch away

Buying a house with existing photovoltaic panels
Hi, I'm in the process of buying a house which has an existing PV panel array. The original owners (the church of England) had them installed in the very early days and are therefore on a high earning tariff.

Hi, We moved into a new build 11 months ago and when looking into broadband we found out that the ONLY option we had was BT.

Despite countless phone calls and emails it is still not resolved 7 months later, to add insult to injury they have just sent me a letter from a debt collection…

Hi all This is an odd question for an article I am writing and it's based on a fictional scenario- but one that could happen obviously.
