Energy Monthly Direct Debit Excessive Charge
Hello to all
interested people, Like many I was moved to another energy supplier
last September when my previous supplier failed. I was put onto the
"Energy Price Cap" tariff and remain on it. No changes were made to
my monthly Direct Debit (DD) payments until I received an email in February
2022 telling me that my March…

E.ON Next - should I just renew?
Hello, I have had an email from my provider E On next asking if I want to renew my tariff. I've tried price comparison sites but currently gas suppliers aren't showing any deals because of the exceptional situation. Am I best to just renew my fixed rate tariff?

affordable solar pv?
Hi ive recently been browsing the internet gathering information and prices of solar pv systems, although I recognise the government cannot afford to restart the solar grants or give money away to the public who cannot afford the initial outlay of solar pv, surely the obvious answer would be to offer some sort of short…

BG bill cancelled
After being moved to BG from PFP I have had two bills covering roughly 1 and 3 months. All readings were provided by me. Now they have cancelled those two bills and issued one which covers the entire period. But only for the electricity use. No reference to the Gas usage. I assume eventually they will issue a separate…

Switched to "deemed rates" - legality?
I am the landlord for a commercial property. The existing tenant moved out and informed the electricity/gas company that he was moving out, and presumably gave them my name. 4 months later, the first communication I received from them was to tell me that I owed them a very large sum of money based on meter readings. Now,…

SHELL ENERGY WARNING
Their monthly billing system has been a nightmare over the 13 month Fixed Tariff. They increase the accurate reading I give, repeat the gas or electricity on the next bill for no reason by billing & then crediting. At the end of the fix I was put on the Price Cap and I gave them the critical reading on the last day 31st…

Switch to off peak tariff
We’ve just bought our first electric car and are getting panels and a battery installed next week at the house, along with a charging station, and I’m now very keen to make the switch to someone like Octopus, so we can take advantage of the overnight charge options. The issue I’m facing is my smart meter isn’t SMETS2 and…

Electricity costs up 200%??
I was with Neon Reef until November 2021 when I was transferred to British Gas. My Direct Debits with Neon Reef were £30 a month but these stopped when British Gas took over. I had a bill from British Gas in March for £140 to cover November to March i.e. around £30 a month still. I am on a variable tariff, so I knew it…

Eonnext April bill taking ages to be generated!

It has an inverter but no batteries but I don’t actually understand how they work, we have had no instructions and the person who liaises with is not up to speed. I can see the meter is registering the KWs so the sunny days this week are doing their…
