According to Sky news people are in debt to utilities…
How can this be when we have the hottest/driest summer since My supplier keeps advising me to increase my monthly direct debit because they have set a high figure to include possible annual bills - if I don’t pay the higher rate (because I am currently not using anywhere near that amount) they say I am in (future forecast)…

Fixed Rate
My daughter is on a fixed rate with OVOtil 2023, so why has her direct debit been increased from £136 to £199 yesterday ?

Smart meter readings don’t always tally with billed amount
Hi. We have noticed that our smart meter readings don’t always tally with our billed amount. For instance our July monthly bill for gas and electric with Octopus according to the Smet2 should be around £110, plus VAT. When the bill came through it was £164, a 30%+ difference. We believe the tariff cost is up to date. We…

My reliable old boiler is 25 years old - a Potterton 40,000btu Suprima. I'm thinking of a regular Bosch of similar output. How much more efficient is the new one? Thanks.

"End of service life" meter leads to a smart meter installation problem
We recently had a letter saying our electricity meter has reached its end of service life and we should book the installation of a smart meter, so I phoned to confirm that we don't mind a new smart electricity meter being installed, but we can't switch the gas meter as it's inaccessible (we purchased our bungalow 12 years…

Government intervention of OFGEM
Is there any reason why this government (apart from sheer incompetence) can’t just legally force OFGEM to freeze the price cap for the next 12 months, pending a moratorium on changing how the cap is worked out? This would surely fix so many issues…. It would mean that energy companies obscene profits would be naturally…

Energy Price Cap - estimate of Gas v Electricity caps?
In April, the Gas/kWh went from 4.07p to 7.37p, Electricity from 20.8p to 28.34p (might be for one region, but most are similar). With the forecast increases in Oct and then January, ~82% ~116%, is there any indication or estimate you have (or best guess) of whether Gas or Electricity will be hit worst (in % terms) i.e. an…

Energy price cap
There is no such thing as a price cap, the government is lying to the people, the price of energy depends how much you use, never mind conserving energy to save the planet, the more you use the less you pay. Example myself and my 2 sons. We live within 5 miles of each other. . I live alone in a 2 bed flat, pay direct debit…

Can I change companies
I was a Peoples Energy Customer automatically moved to British Gas. I find them incompetent at best but I don't seem to be able to change providers. Is it possible?

Provider was switched
We have been with SSE for years an recently we were switched to Ovo? This was done by SSE and not ourselves. They set a combined for both gas and electric at £209 a month. We are heavily in credit and im unsure what to do, whether to contact them or alter the dd? I'm totally confused about what to do!!!

Balance = £ or kw ?
I’m a bulb duel fuel customer on prepayment, recently I had a smart meter installed. It displays my credit in £’s not inKW, I’m in the habit of keeping my account well in credit . if I pay £100 of credit now, am I buying kw’s at today’s price? Or will my money be devalued as the energy price increases ?

Fixed in June and moving house
Hi there. Thanks for looking at my question. I moved from Scottish Power to a 2 year fixed rate with Ovo in June this year. We are now moving house later this month and our new property is currently supplied by SSE. So I think it may well be Ovo when we move. But Ovo have advised us the account will close when we move and…
