    Nope, I have my last 4 bills to hand, and even allowing for the price increase the bills would not be as the comparison sites suggest.

    The units will be the same. VAT is the same rate.

    So that leaves:

    Price per unit.
    Direct Debit Discount.
    Loyalty Bonus.

    Whichever one/s have altered, between your bills and the comparison site, should explain why you have a discrepancy.

    Is UKPower (http://www.ukpower.co.uk) included in this?

    Not really used it myself, does it show the Consumer focus logo? If so it should be covered..
    Missing Tesco R&R since Feb '07 :A & now a "Tesco veteran" apparently! ;)

    Did you manage to get to the bottom of this?
