Cheapest Gas and Electricity for Students?

Options
Hey guys
I've just moved into a terrace house with 5 other students, I need some help choosing and energy company for our gas and electricity.

We will probably use a large amount of electricity of the year due to the fact that we all have laptops, desktops and sound systems.

However I think our gas usage might be quite low due to the fact that we are not going to turn on the central heating, however our oven and hob is gas powered.

Please advise a payment plan for us?

cheers :D

    Have you checked that you do not have a prepayment meter?

    Since the house will disband unexpectedly, you should avoid a one year contract.

    Who is the mug whose name will appear on the account?
    He should hold a deposit from everyone moving in.

    By the end of term, all the money is gone, and guess what, the quarterly bill turns up. Beginnning of the next term, you find empty rooms with a note saying "moving in with new boyfriend, tara."
