Powergen Retention - A good deal (I think)

Hi all
I've been spending £51 per month for the last year for my G&E, and used a comparison site in order to switch. I found that for me, British Gas would be cheaper, reducing me to £48 PCM. I completed the switch, and was yesterday contacted by Powergen's customer retention bods.
They offered me a capped tarrif until October 07, to which I responded that I am now paying £3 less with British Gas. This was pricematched, and I then asked if they could do the same price with a Green tarrif (which appears to be more expensive usually). After a short delay, they replied yes.
So, I have now saved a guaranteed £54, got myself a more environmentally friendly way of getting my fuel, and Tesco Clubcard points to boot. Yippee!

Interesting... given their inability to service customers, that's pretty good. I should try that too.0
