Pre-paid meters Gas & Elec, best company

Options
OK im in a 3 bed semi, spending about £15 each a week on gas & elec, 2 adults 4 kids,
Both are on most of the day, only gas appliances are 1 gas fire & boiler + central heating, everything else (cooker, shower) is electric. Washer is on once a day, pc on all day.

Looking for the best pre-paid meter deals please, if there is any out there, currently on southern elec for both, I live in west yorkshire.

    Ebico will probably be best for gas on pre pay.

    Obviously the best solution is get rid of pre-pay meters and then you can cut your bills considerably by taking an internet tariff.

    Call your current provider and obtain your annual consumption. Input this infomation, and anything else it requries into a consumer focus accredited comparrison site and apply for the company at the top of the list.

    You really need your annual consumption in kWh - your current supplier should be able to advise you if you don't have this data.

    Then use a couple of the comparison sites in the resource bar above to find the best deal for you remembering to specify that you have a PPM (typically under how you wish to pay)
