Energy company goes bust while in credit??
Hi, I am paying a quite large direct debit payment to my gas/elec supplier and consequently have built up a big credit. Even after winter i am expecting to be in credit. I don't really mind this as it's almost like an unofficial saving plan, as if i ever move supplier i will get the credit back as a little bonus and would…

Changing tariff to avoid exit fees then switching provider
Hi, I've just switched from EDF to Scottish Power as EDF wanted to put up my bills quite significantly. However, I feel like Scottish Power haven't been entirely upfront with some of the things they have said on the phone/in their correspondence and i'm starting to wish i'd switched to someone else to be honest. I was 1…

Moved into flat, switched supplier, opening dispute?
Hi all, I moved into a new flat in the middle of July. I read the meters on the day (with photos) and began a switch from Utility Point (the supplier at time of move in) to EON. This switch was completed on the 13th August and I submitted the opening meter readings a few weeks before as requested. I should note that for…

Electric Alternative to Immersion Hot Water
We have an Ariston Primo 200l unvented immersion cylinder, 3w + 3w. We are an electric only house with no access to gas. The householder before left the immersion on 24/7 and we have continued to do the same. We have an electric shower and almost never have a bath, so we use little hot water. Would an instant hot water…

Where does cashback come from - i.e. who pays it?
Hi, I joined Bulb Energy in June this year and signed up via the MSE energy club, but I can't remember if my tariff has a cash back component? It's their VARI-FAIR tariff. If it did would I have recieved the cashback yet? The reason I ask is that I'm thinking of switching to Shell energy as they have a fixed tariff until…

Eversmart issue
I wonder if anyone can help. I knew Eversmart were in trouble after not receiving bills from them for months (despite stupidly allowing them to install a smart meter) so I switched from them to So Energy. At this point they blocked the switch as we owed a few hundred pounds. I swiftly paid this off and the switch took…

Bulb Energy Overpaying me?
Hi all, I switched over to bulb energy back in June and they used an estimated reading, not sure why as i did submit a meter reading immediately after joining. In July instead of charging me they have credited me £123.93. This is because a further meter reading i submitted was less than their estimated read. Obviously this…

Switching supplier
Just been checking my energy bills using uswitch and the result was a surprise. It states I can save £139 per year. So effectively I am over paying for my energy with Utilita. When I joined they installed their smart meters. The supplier (bulb) quoting a saving of £139 show they can't offer me the tariff because smart…
