Cheap Energy Club Query
Does the CEC not show tariffs available from your own suppliers website, except perhaps for their Standard Variable tariff? My EDF electricity only tariff ends on 30th June, and according to CEC the best result is actually EDF's Standard Variable, but there are even cheaper tariffs on EDF's own site which don't appear in…

Refund from EDF - after 6 years...?
I have received a refund cheque from EDF today with a "Sorry to hear you're leaving" letter. But, my account was closed in 2014, shortly after I moved in (and switched to a cheaper supplier). I'm still at the same address with the same phone number, mobile number and email, so there should be no issues contacting me. After…

Cheap rate disappeared
EDIT: I forgot I initiated this switch via Uswitch, seems most likely that's the reason for the single rate. I only just got around to looking properly at my last three monthly bills from Scottish Power. I'd already noticed I'd been switched to a different tariff, but I assumed that was a good thing, my previous one was…

Fell into a trap with Scottishpower, my fault for not paying enough attention, paid way too much etc
Hi there. I don't think I have a leg to stand on here as it's my fault, but I recently was made aware of being in a very unfavourable situation with how much I was paying for my electricity with Scottishpower. I moved in my property back in 2015, and I believe I was paying about £29 a month for my electricity then. This…

For example on the energy club the daily standard charge was 14.81 but on shells website it was 36.49, which is…
