Hi On reading the Daily Mirror today Mr British Gas (Mr Phil Bentley) stating (if you are on income support or pension credit we will give you a DISCOUNTED rate.

With discounts its possible that the low-income pensioners bills can be as little as £1 a day .???

I assume he means the essential tariff

Most suppliers offer a social tariff to those most in need (terms differ by supplier)

You can have a bill as low as £1 a day or less even without such a tariff. It all depends on how much you use.

It's certainly possible to get below a £1 a day over the year but to do so in winter is difficult. Note he is also saying 'as little as' suggesting it is not the norm. Cheap doesn't mean comfortable so it seems he might have managed to spin his answer.

I came across this site the other day with a list of social tariffs:

Note the price comparison is a 'normal' comparison and the six links jump to the wrong page ?
