Too late, too late!!

I have already signed up for Npower. :eek:

Oh, four letter words! Trust me to choose the wrong one.

Anybody know how to cancel this before the end of the cooling off period?

Does it have to be in writing or can I phone to cancel :rolleyes:

Its just a complete minefield at the moment - I think the only thing you can be sure on is that British Gas is normally the most expensive

Did you switch online? If so does it tell you in the confirmation email they sent you how to cancel?

That is often the case for Gas, but their Electricity prices are(and usually have been) pretty competitive.

In fact BG's 'Click Energy' tariff is one of the most competitive for both according to the comparison sites - although several people have reported problems with setting up the service.

That said they could well raise their prices, closer to their 'normal' tariff when they have a big enough customer base. However that is a favourite trick of lots of utility companies!

Well it's quicker to try by phone. You can then also establish whether you would be affected by this price rise - from what I've seen, it's not abundantly clear what is going to happen with this new SOL6 tariff.

Did you get this rebate because you pay your bill by direct debit? Sorry, don't know too much about this...i am with Atlantic for gas, have been with them for about the same amount of time as you but pay my bills quarterly...would like to know if i am going to get a nice surprise through the post!!!

As far as I'm aware, the rebate only applies if you pay by direct debit.
