E.ON UK Power/iChoosr Collective Oct 15 - cheaper than uSwitch/MSE deals
I posted this yesterday in another thread but thought it deserved one of its own. UKPower/iChoosr have announced a new collective deal with EON. For me, the uSwitch site tells me its about £90 cheaper than uSwitch's own collective deal when comparing both fuels and over £50 if I look at electricity alone. And as the…

How to buy a combi combi boilers.
Dear Public In my opinion the best boiler would have to have power rating of at least 37KW or more for typical family home 2 adults and 2 children.

New build help
Ok so I'm fairly new to this and need a bit of help as I'm unsure of what to do for the best. In October 2014 I moved into a new build home. The builder told me the supply was with Scottish power so on the day I moved in I rang them with the meter serial numbers and the meter readings. A couple of months went past I heard…

Mess left by gas company entry while we were away
We were away on holiday last week. On Monday, somebody reported a smell of gas in the street outside, and as a result the appropriate people (National Grid?) came out.

We are free to choose according to price or according to quality of service. We can choose a different supplier any time we…

Utilita will not pay outstanding debt
The charlatans and money grabbers at Utilita are just ignoring the debt outstanding to us. We changed energy billing company and the change over zeroed the credit on the pre-pay leccy meter. The new company's letter started saying it was important to put the new key in ASAP, then after the page was turned over it said to…
