    Yorkshire has been very cheap for electricity. It would be "sneaky" if you had already been paying more than other regions and then it went up further. It is not "sneaky" if you pay less than other regions and it goes up a little to align itself.

    As told electricity prices in Yorkshire have gone up today, still no announcment from SP. Prices available on comparison sites.

    Very sneaky.

    Was looking at SP tariffs yesterday. They've still got their March 2009 price list up on their own website.

    Sneaky in the fact that they sent out a press release and followed that up with a set of prices then a week latter changed those prices to include an electricity increase.

    The price change that they announced is not the same as the one they are actually doing.

    I agree they are doing the right thing but they are doing it by the back door in order to limit media damage.
