edf energy or ovo any good

Options
hi all, we have been with scottish power for a couple of years and have had no problems, but looks like now is the time to change suppliers.

have used a couple of the comparison sites and edf + ovo have come out on top.

our current monthly direct debit is approx £80, ( 40 for both gas and electricity) we are on a standard online tarrif with no standing charge.

our gas boiler is brand new.

would you change supplier

    Bear in mind that EDF have not yet announced their price rises ( ~ April) whereas all the other major suppliers have.

    Hi Bryan, if there is not a lot in it, I would stay with Scottish Power.Brilliant system.
    Seems odd to me that EDF chose the Christmas peiod to promote a new tariff and also change computer software/systems.
    Ovo has simple billing.

    Switched from SP to Ovo in October and no problems to date. A few threads on here regarding Ovo and people seem happy in general.
  • hi, we both work from home. we spend approx £40 per month with scottish power on electricity, and they dont charge us a standing charge.

    i guess a company that does charge a standing charge would charge less per unit of energy. so i guess we would be better off switching.
    do you read your own meter and input the readings onto ovo web site
