Prepayment to DD
At present I'm paying by prepayment - paying what I use, not less or more. Looking to moving to changing meter, unsure they will due to the way it's going. The issue with DD that puts me off is overpaying, even if I submit readings weekly/monthly. |Let's say I overpay £30 a month say for Summer, as they use it for the…

When EXACTLY, to the second, do the April caps kick in?
I assumed the upcoming cap hikes would apply to energy consumed from the beginning of 1 April 2022 (ie: the first "tick" after midnight of 31 March 2022). I wrote to Octopus for confirmation; they replied: "I believe the new prices will go live on the 2nd of April". I think they mean that bills produced (retrospectively,…

Bristol Energy on Cheap Energy Club Search
This is weird, but today if I check the Cheap Energy Club it is showing a Bristol Energy result that clearly can't be real as they went bust! This result hasn't been showing at other times I've looked over the last month though. Hopefully someone with control over the CEC search will see this and can address it.

Problem with energy switch
Previously I was on an Economy 7 plan and I have now switched over to a new supplier. When I switched I believed I was switching over to another Economy 7 plan but I have switched over to a standard variable rate plan with a single tariff rate.
