Help with changing from Scottish Hydro THTC
Could some kind soul please help me here. My elderely parents live in a very old house 4 bedroomed with propably 6 storage heaters for their heat. I have just discovered that they are paying approx £400!! per month for their electricity. They do not have gas. I know they try and be careful with their heating. They don't have it on during the day at all as they both work and do not get home till 6 or 7 at night. They will not at this stage in their lifes get gas or consider any upheaval in their house.
I am sure there must be a better offer out there for them but having looked at older posts it looks a bit of a minefield. I went onyo energyhelpline but don't see TCTH as an option and then there is this problem of there being 2 meters. Has anyone changed from thisand secondly is it worth it? I thought I could save them some money but I am not sure and I certainly dont want to give them any hastle at all as that they can not cope with.
Many thanks in advance for any advice anyone can pass on to me.

I was under the impression that Hydro were the only ones that supported THTC twin meter things but abviously not. Very good news - shall go on the hunt for other suppliers now. Thank you!0
