EDF Standard Variable Calc (when will suppliers update their SVTs?)
Hi All, I don't believe the EDF standard variable that is in this screen shot attached. But to be sure, please could I ask for some help to verify my maths. They are saying that when my tariff expires on (31st March 2022) on the 1st April I will be moved to a standard variable rate which is only about 35% more than what I…

My Tariff Ends In Mar 22' And The Fixed Tariff Options Are Horrendous
Hi all, I am with EDF and was wondering if anyone could advise me with my gas and electric tariff. My current tariff is £86.50pm and I'm in credit.

Octopus Tariff Help
Hi all, With all this energy crisis talk, I fixed my rate with Octopus mid January. The tariff I got was the below: Loyal Octopus 12M Fixed December 2021 v3 27.51p/kWh 23.76p/day I thought I was doing the right thing due to suggestion of octopus employee and also due to the cap in April. Unfortunately I was naive to not…

Eon dispute
I have a disputed bill with eon and I am working with citizens advice on this, they have advised me to switch and I was thinking of fixing with Sainsbury's, I know it's not a good time to switch but I'm on a variable rate and the new rate would be 13p more a kWh and 14p a day standing if I fix for two years. This seems a…

New property - which energy supplier to use?
Hi all, Ive just bought a new property and the supplier is Eon. Ive searched online including MSE for advice on the best energy supplier. However all advice indicates staying with current supplier.

EDF says they can’t fit smart meter
I was moved to EDF from Utility Point and plan to get a battery storage. To make the most of this I need a smart meter so I can go onto more flexible tariffs. But EDF say I can’t have one yet. I’ve asked them to do a WAN test and they say they have and I don’t have a signal, I asked if they visited the location they said…

Electricity and gas standing charges - petition
I feel that standing charges are regressive and the calculation is opaque. I would like to see standing charges removed and added to the per kWh charge. This should be based on total cost divided by total kWh consumed to give a cost per kWh. Until 2013 I didn’t pay any standing charges and my energy costs were £200 pa. Now…

Renewable only tariffs
Surely green tariffs using only renewables should not be effected by gas price rises? I only use electricity and have a ground source heat pump. I have a 24 month fixed tariff until 10/23 with Octopus of 24.45 kWh and 24.86 per day and use about 7600 kw per year. Will I pay more from April? And how do renewables fit in?

Smart meters
Forty years ago I took part in the trial for genuinely smart meters C.A.L.M.U. [CREDIT AND LOAD MANAGEMENT] They did everything the present meters do plus they allowed users to pay different rates at several different times of the day [Reflecting the generating cost and demand] The trial was a success and we were told…

Price Cap - Standing charge increases
According to your estimates of the new price cap rates for 01 April 22, the electricity standing charge goes up from 24.88 p/day to 45.34 p/day. This is a massive 82% increase. How can this be justified when the gas standing charge increase is around 4%?

Gas and electric tariff
My current tariff for combined gas and electric runs out at end of this month. Is it worth switching onto new tariff or sticking to variable tariff?
