Sainbury's Energy
Apologies if this has already been asked - couldn't see anything about it....... Does anyone know if the Sainsbury's Energy deal is any good. This is for cheaper Gas & Electric. I know I need to change suppliers, at moment with British Gas for both, but before I commit to switching to Sainsbury's, thought I would check if…

Confused by Uswitch ?
If you like me, are becoming suspicious of Uswitch's accuracy. The search results, using constant data, seems to vary wildly on a daily basis. And also it seems restrictive when you are trying to find the actual account you are currently on - powergen ONLINE never seems to be an option. You may wish to try an alternative…

Scottish Power/Manweb unfair apportioning
I don't know if anyone else has had the same problem as me with S.P or any other energy provider but it made me so annoyed I am writing this here. Basically when my last gas bill arrived -- well over estimated as usual-- I noticed that there had been a price increase. The increase was at the start of October and the bill…

cost of fitting a combi boiler?
I've just had my old faulty combi boiler removed and a new combi boiler fitted which took about 4 hours. This cost me £1200. I've since found out that the boilers cost £500 retail on the web, which means I've been charged approx £700 for the work. Does this seem reasonable? Or have I been ripped off? Thanks

Additional cost on gas bills from Scottish Power
I have both gas & electric from Scottish Power. Today I received a letter telling me that due to the fact that I have an independent gas transporter (IGT) (??) I will have to pay an additional cost ("only 80p a week" - that works out at £41.60 extra a year, roughly another 8% on my bill!). 1) Does anyone know how I find…

NPower door 2 door sales cant beat British Gas
Last night I had an Npower salesman ring the doorbell preaching about how he can beat British Gas on price :) I bet he can't I thought so suggest I'd be interested. Upon asking about my gas bill he did a quick U-turn and backtracked out of any agreement. It seems that when you gas bill is very low (I pay just a few pounds…

Powergen via Greasypalm
On the greasypalm website it states that they give £7.50 cash back and also powergen will give an additional £30 back. Does anyone know if this is still the case? as if so that's better than the £10 via this site. Cheers Chris

Scottish Power v Powergen?
Have checked both suppliers today and for me they both have the same kWh rate for gas and electric with powergen coming out £25 cheaper for the standing charge minus discounts. My question is, do either of these have a price increase in the pipeline or have they both had them recently? Don't want to switch to one, only to…

Gas bill £100 a month?? For 3bed house??
Hi all! I have a q regarding gas bills - this is a very basic question - does the above sound reasonable for 3 guys living in a 3 bed house?? They seem to be clueless about this, and are happily paying it, and I personally have no experience, as my bills etc were included when I lived out in the past (with parents now).…

What if a company owes me money?
A bit of a daft question here......... I am on a monthly DD with BG and Southern Electricity. I intend to change to Scottish power. At the moment, with it being the start of the winter, I have over paid BG. Will I get a cheque from them if I stop using them? Will it make a difference if I do it via energyhelpline? Many…
