ALWAYS check with your current Supplier before switching energy.
MSE's Energy Comparison is very good & arguably the best available however their algorithm can't & doesn't allow for any "special" New Tariff your current Supplier may be offering. MSE's Comparison came up with some very cheap alternatives but when I checked with Avro, my current Supplier, their New Tariff if I stayed with…

They offered a regular top up service at…

Together Energy *Misc Chrges*
Anyone with Together Energy had a Misc charge added to their utilty bills? Had a big issue with them a while ago where as they claim they wern't charging me enough on my direct debit which led to my account being in debt by nearly £1,000.

Sorry it's a long story but I don't want to leave anything important out. I bought a new flat and moved in just 3 weeks before the first lockdown. I'd totally gutted and…

Changing Dual Energy supplier - any suggestions
I have been with Avro for a couple of years, and to be honest I would have been happy to stay when my current contract ends, but I simply cannot get to speak to anybody to discuss my renewal quote. I have a big credit balance and I want them to apply that credit before calculating my new monthly charge. I am now sick of…

Gas meter readings
Very confusing since my meter dated1991 has 3 different cu ft units printed on the face of the meter The meter is also a type U6 In multiplying one of the units shown on the meter face (212cu.ft/ hour ) x 0.0283 one gets 6 (rounded up) as in 6 cu.metres/ hour which confirms conveniently the U6 meter type ? Surprised that…

Varying gas bill calculations
Both my new gas supplier and even a Govt.UK web page state that in converting cu.ft. gas units on your meter into Kw/hrs one uses a conversion factor of 0.0283 as part of the overall formula to reach an equivalent Kwhrs figure. Since my old gas supplier has been using a conversion factor 100 x bigger at 2.83 how can they…

I need some guidance on a problem with EON
Eon wrote me on 11 June to say that my current contract expires 27 July and offered two tariffs for renewal. They said that if I did not select a new tariff I would be switched to EonEnergyPlan - which is more expensive. So I went online to my account, as instructed, but could not find these tariffs. I then wrote them to…

e.on - How do you go about claiming back a credit balance in my account (£250).
I have emailed them at the recommended hi@eonnext.com but all they sent me was a copy of my statement showing my credit balance. Has anyone been able to get a credit balance refunded back to their bank account? If so what is the best way forward? Thanks

As a result of their unfounded accusations I changed my supplier to M & S Energy. As we all know this past 18 months has not been easy and as…

Mis-selling problem
Hello all, I was a Green Network Energy customer. My account has now been automatically transferred to EDF. When I swapped my dual fuel account to GNE I did so based on their figure of £80 and some pence p.c.m., given the details of my previous bills and usage. It became apparent that I had accrued a large debt during the…

Switching from Economy 10 - a metering query
Hi all. Until recently, my Dad has been on the same "Storage Heater" tariff with SSE / Southern for many years. Although they didn't call it Economy 10, it was certainly characterised by having three meter readings to take - for Day use, Night use and a time-limited 'Storage Heaters' reading. < For clarity, as well as the…
