My Dad paid his bills even though they were estimates. He passed away in October 2023 and I contacted Scottish Gas who told me not to pay any bills…

Petition To Ban Exit Fees Within Suppliers
I, like I think most customers, assumed Exit Fees only applied if you change suppliers, but was shocked to find out EDF charged me £50 to switch to a cheaper tariff with them. Exit should mean leave no penalise customers for switching to a cjeaper tariff! I do not understand how this is legal. For that reason I have…

New MSE Octopus tariff that is nowhere to be found on the page?
Hi all, I am due to either renew or switch my tariff. I am currently with Octopus on their Octopus 12M Fixed October 2024 v2 tariff. I am on a day/night tariff, but have asked for a single-rate option as it seems that I am actually wasting money on the day/night one. The quote that Octopus have offered to me was under…

EON - is it a requirement to use their budget app to pay a debit
Hiya, This is quite long, but with multiple issues, but the main issue is at the bottom as a TLDR. Up until recently, our Direct Debits have been affordable. However, a debit balance started and began to build. The bill reassures me that we are still paying enough. Over time, the debit builds, but the DD remains the same.…

EDF cancelled DD for existing debt
Hi, has anyone experienced EDF cancelling a DD for a debt and not getting in contact? I set up a DD with EDF to pay remaining monies owed due to switching to a cheaper energy company. For over a year the DD came out my account without much thought, I logged into the EDF app today to check on it and noticed it said the debt…

Heat only boiler timings
During the week I set the water to start heating up at 5.30am, and daughter is in the shower at 6am. It usually only takes 20 mins to get to temperature in the warmer months. Now that the heating will start to kick in too before we get up, this will take priority over heating I'm guessing or do they work together? Only got…

Outfox refusing to give full refund
When I joined Outfox a year ago, they charged me £145 per month, then put me up to £217. I have solar panels. I have recently changed my tariff with them and am now paying £150 per month. I am £250 in credit. When I asked for refund, I was told I could have £100 back as they like to have a month direct debit in advance.…

Octopus fix coming to an end - But now have IOG for EV car electricity - switch?
I have been with octopus for ages, and fixed in Aug 2024 on their 15M fix, which is due to expire 11th Dec 2025 for me. This year we got an EV, and moved the electric to the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff, the gas remained fixed. Firstly I am thinking of fixing the gas again, as there is no exit fee on the offer they have…
