    Any more feedback on Airtricity?


    Looks like you can sign up online now which is good, and they have a night and day tariff which I assume matches the Economy 7 deal someone was enquiring about above.

    The big discount only lasts until September 2011, so get in quick to maximise your savings I say :)

    Cheers, Des.

    where did you see abt night and daycharge ?


    checked their site no mention of different tariff for night and day. Also doesn't make much sense b'cos my current meter only got one reading

    It is for people that have Economy 7, and therefore 2 meters I assume. Someone earlier in the thread said they didn't do economy 7 back then.

    I have a keypad meter, on the "nightsaver" tariff, by my calculations I reckon I'm saving an average of £10 per month as opposed to the standard keypad rates. Currently putting £60ish a month through.
    Like agal said - all laundry etc is done overnight to save.

    I guess I'll have to just stick it out if keypad customers cant move

    Actually - I just did a quick calculation using my current usage readings, and even if keypad customers could switch, I'd be maybe £4 a month better off from my current tarriff moving to Airtricity Day/Night. Doesnt really amount to much saving for me anyway

    Was thinking of changing over to Airtricity as my electricity supplier has anyone already done so and if so how have they found them?

    well so far the changeover has been smooth, did it online took 2 minutes, got my final NIE bill (shocking!) and then a letter from Airtricity with account details etc - the real proof will be when bills start arriving etc but so far no hassle

    £4 a month = £48 over a year, so £50 extra in your pocket at say Christmas or summer holidays, not much good? :-)
