Tomato energy have you read their terms and conditions?
I am a notorious non reader of terms and conditions But these spring out (my words) 1. You must inform them 10 days before you change supplier 2. Reserve the right to object to the change of supplier and / or charge you an unspecified amount for loss of profit

EDF Smart meter not working - need to change supplier
Hi everyone, Not sure if anyone has any answer to this question, but here it goes. My EDF Smart meter is not working, it has not been for over 2 years and EDF is absolutely useless.

Hi, I am in a new build property with a help to buy loan and am considering solar and a heat pump from octopus energy, both of which sound like they will work well for my property as apparently my heat loss is very low and my roof is quite large and south facing with no shade.

Hi, I am just wondering if i sign up to this new tariff (currently on a variable tariff) and i dont have an electric car would it just be fiddling the system or do they actually check things?

LCS Letter Regarding bill I'm not liable for
I've seen a few LCS posts on here. It's my first time of posting, however, I wanted to ask if anyone else has come across this and what the advice is given that they don't even answer their phones. I've tried and it cuts out after a while and when you ask for a call back, it also cuts you off: I was written to by LCS…

Comparison Sites think I have an economy 7 meter and I don't
Hi When I moved in my electricity tariff was economy 7 with different rates for day and night.

Hi, I’m 2020 I moved into a new house and we had a dispute re the electricity bills. The complaint came as we contact SP to work out our bill and we’re told we were £600 in credit.

Do you have to pay inaccurate bill?
Hi there, Just moved into a new house and the energy company has back-billed us for electricity. They've produced daily statements covering the period and I've added up the totals and they don't match what we've been billed. Not a rounding error... it is out by a significant margin. They've also missed 2 and a half months…

E.On Next. No you can’t have a smart meter.
I have bought an electric car. E.On say that to have an electric car tariff I need to have a smart meter fitted.

Nobody has been to check whether…
