Well will vary by which part of the country you're in, I ran the numbers on a glasgow postcode and came up with E.ON SaveOnline 4

EDF Energy Online S@ver 7 Dual Fuel

Npower Sign Online Dual Fuel 20

EDF seems to have a £100 bill credit cashback offer with uswitch that puts it a little ahead, I couldn't beat that on topcashback and it's probably more reliable claiming it via uswitch.

Re run for your actual postcode to check tho

Don't worry about whether the tariff has a daily standing charge or not; it's the total annual price that is important.

Beware of any bungs/cashback deals included in the comparison price unless you plan to switch again shortly - such bungs are one off payments, not year on year savings other tariffs may allow.

I think without cashback all the above were working out about £1240 per annum (not sure if recent price rises have been factored in.

I guess that'd put a sensible DD for you at £105-£115ish.

compare the total overall yearly cost when making comparisons

total cost between eon save online 4 and edf online saver 7 is a difference of £6 in Eon's favour, however edf, on the first quarterly bill you will get £100 credited to it, given thatthat bill will be a winter one, probably the best bet, mdd should be set about £103pm
