Sort of Gonzo - at least I made a decision on it. I the change to Eon had already gone through - they said I can change to thier online tarrif - which is cheaper than the one I am on. I want Npower to calculate my final bill asap cos I think I am in credit - possibly by about £250 - they won't calculate the final bill if I cahnge back to them imediately. I just wish it wasn't so confusing and difficult to compare tarriffs - I am not bad with mosty bills and pretty sure I am getting good ddeals but never quite know with the gas and elec. Thanks for your help the other day
no problem, they are difficult, i spent a long time trying to work them out when i first moved away from my parents as they do seem to make them as confusing as possible to try and keep people,
personally i would always recommend using the comparison sites for the gas and electric (and always make sure you have your annual usage for both in KWH) since they give you a rough idea on the prices and if you use 3 different sites and then choose from the tarrifs which come in the top 10 of all 3 sites as some sites will push certain tarrifs as best buys etc because they get the most commission if people swop to themDrop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

I think what I am going to do with the Gas and Elec - is when this switch goes through and I get my final bill and refund from Npower- sit and work out my usage like you said and put it into a comparison site and go from there. That is my problem I am not exactly sure what my usage is in KWH over a year.0
