    1 year ago i took your advice and switched gas and electricity suppliers. Today i received their annual review and today i find that my direct debit for gas and electricity has been increased from £62 per month to £150pm.Last year i completed your comparison site and did not take cheapest company but thought an average price would save me money as you stated that a comparison site would do. My bills never changed for 7 years with original supplier. How more could i be wrong. Thanks to listening to youand your dirvel i now have massive bills.

    Today on GMTV you stated that gas and electricity have not increased prices in the past few months, yet tonight EDF ENERGY told me there was a price increase last month.

    You should get your facts correct and i will now seek legal advice against you as you are promoting products you really have no knowledge about.

    No doubt many people praise you but i think you are as bad as the big companies as the normal person in the street look up to you as i did.

    EDF ENERGY have supplied me with units for gas and electricity for 1 year which are identical to the past 7 years figures. So either you are talking bull rubbish or the company are fraud. The company stated tonight that all their figures are published.

    Am i annoyed, i think so and will see my solicitor tomorrow as i think it is about time we saw you in the high court.

    Good luck with that. Thanks for bringing some laughter and joy to the world.

    Have you ever read the green banner at the bottom of the page. Your DD can increase for numerous reasons including getting bills based on under estimated readings. Also some suppliers under estimate your consumption when setting up the DD when you join them.
