In credit with BG when switching supplier.
I am switching from BG to EoN. Scheduled to go through on 2nd October 2015. My DD goes out on 28th to BG. This will put me in credit with BG. How soon can I get it back? Will I just request it back through my online account? Will I still be able to access my online BG account?

At my witts end with Scottish Power
I'll try and keep this as brief as possible. I switched suppliers in June 2014 and contacted Scottish Power to ask if anything was due. I was advised several times no. In fact I was issued a refund for overpayment. I even logged in online in October and my statement was zero. Then I start getting letters from a debt…

Electricty Meter Denial by BG

So... British Gas won't insulate my roof
So i've just moved into 'new' old property and apparently because of the pitch of the roof and slightly awkward access, they wont carry out any of the work due to health & safety. My question is what other options do I have? Is there any point in contacting other energy companies? Also is there any point in submitting a…

Wibo
Just picked up the post to find a leaflet from WIBO. Never having heard of them I 'googled' and found all the posts on this site from 2008. Have they improved or have they just not been active in my part of the UK before?

The MSE Big Switch 3 may well be the best on offer but the fact remains that energy suppliers have massively increased their margins in recent years. Wholesale energy costs have fallen by far more than the tariffs offered to consumers who are merely offered the crumbs off the table.
