MSE Energy Big Switch Oct 2025

But when I try the links, I get the message: Unfortunately, you're not eligible for this tariff This may be because it's not compatible with how you pay for energy (eg, it's Direct…

Ridiculous overestimated gas usage
My son has a small flat, 36 m2 with 2 radiators and a towel rail. Eon estimate his usage will be 20600 kwh. We have four years of actual usage at circa 3000 kwh per year. So obviously we send monthly meter readings but they still keep trying to increase his direct debit. He normally pays £100 in the winter and £60 in the…

Nationwide Renewables - Solar Panels
Has anyone else had dealings with Nationwide Renewables? They installed Solar Panels at my Fathers last July but have yet to provide any certification at all. They are not MCS certified and not a part of the REAL registration scheme or even subscribing to the Ombudsman. I'm in discussion with a Complaints Manager who,…

New Install - Heat Pump vs Combi
Which should I go for if I am going to be living in the property for 15+ years? We got an old boiler in our house replaced about 7 years ago from a tank to a combi. It resolved a few problems and we probably broke even on the cost savings. Now moving to a new house. But it's a question of whether heat pump setups are…

British Gas variable direct debits
I'm switching to British Gas Collective Nov 26 from EDF. They have set up my direct debit but it is for a fixed monthly amount. I asked their live chat to change me to a variable direct debit but they don't seem to understand what I'm talking about. They keep telling me to contact my bank when it's British Gas who need to…

I've been a member of the MSE weekly email for ages and signed up for the Cheap Engery Club tonight with the same email address.

Prices on tariffs are wrong on MSE
Wanted to change to the British Gas deal to save a couple of hundred a year and compared this with my current tariff. See pics attached. The prices for my current plan are wrong and too high on all three elements: day rate, night rate and standing charge. Compare with my bill from 03/10/2025 below. And yes I triple checked…

MSE British Gas deal
After seeing your British Gas cheapest since 2021 deal, I rushed to change my deal which is Fixed Tariff 18M with British Gas. I checked to see that my estimated useage was the same on the British Gas website and the Cheap Energy website. The Cheap Energy website says I will save £179 incl £20 cashback. The British Gas…

How do I play the Domestic & General game?
Next Monday, Domestic & General will again send out a Beko technician to repair my dreadful heat pump tumble dryer. The dryer, a heavily used one, heats and rotates, but on the "cotton plus plus" setting, it takes 7 hours or more to dry. The technician, judging on past experience, will almost certainly have been taught a…

Back Billing - Disagreement with the Ombudsman
Hello all, Firstly, the history of the problem. I signed up with an electricity supplier in September 2021 for a 2-year fixed tariff, set up my direct debit and all seemed to be going smoothly. I don't/won't have a smart meter and I gave them regular monthly readings on time. In February 2022 I checked their app on my…

Octopus Tracker
Sorry to harp on about this, folks. I took the plunge yesterday and went back on the Octopus Tracker tariff, after 9 months away from it. I’m going to be brave this year, and stay on it through the winter. Might be a few expensive days here and there, but overall, I’m hoping to make a saving. If anyone has any thoughts,…
