Hiya just woken up to the fact that british gas is no longer cheapest for Economy 7 and as winter is upon us!!! lol I wonder if anyone else has economy 7 and knows which is cheapest?

Todays comparison tables show Scotish power as cheapest but I wonder when they last put prices up? Any ideas or where can i find out?

Thanks what a great site this is full of helpful people!

  • Scottish Power were one of the last to put their prices up recently I think. Their E7 rate is 4.259p (online tarrif click4) and is one of the cheapest, if not the cheapest on the market. Their day time rates are pretty good too.
    On the other hand though, their gas prices are quite high in comparison to others.
