    It's applied quarterly.

    The only exception is when you leave, and the outstanding amount does not get the discounts, which is 26.3%, so you should switch just after a bill.

    Hi slipthru

    Pincher is spot on. Discount on Fixonline 8 is applied quarterly except where you change supplier. In this case, no discount is given on the final bill.

    I would just add, if the change of supplier completes after the contract has ended, you will receive the full amount of discount applicable to the contracted product even if part of this falls within the final bill.

    For instance, if your switch date is 7 July 2011 and you remain on Fixonline 8 up until the end date of 1 July 2011, you will receive the full discount up until 1 July 2011. Only the charges between 1-7 July 2011 will not be discounted.

    Hope this helps. :)

    Hi Gary

    Difficult to say without knowing a few more details.

    I would suggest popping your annual usage in kWh on to one of the comparison sites. This way, you will be able to see not only how your current tariff compares with Fixonline 8, but also how we stack up against the other suppliers.

    Sorry I can't be more specific Gary but I hope this points you in the right direction. Give me a shout if I can help further as will be happy to do so. :)
