    But Martin was on radio 2 today suggesting you hold fire before changing your provider. Wait until October he said but daveboy probably already knows that and I will await his wrath

    Good one!

    We're with British Gas for both gas/elecric.

    Not convinced, still, about switching. We get dual fuel discount, £$£$£ off the gas bill, for paying within 10 days. Thats quaterly, not monthly.Also up until now, paid with our Goldfish points & earnt a few more on the balance.

    Also still got a few shares in BG (or whatever they call the parent company this week) so giving myself a miniscule, bit back there too!!

    & DaveBoy, I'm one of those strange folk, not owning a TV!!

    Dear Vansboy

    The Parent company is CENTRICA, BG was the other half of the old BRITISH GAS. (hasn't changed recently (364 weeks roughly)

    Owning shares is tricky at times, even harder if you don't know what shares you hold, lol

    You get 15 pounds off the electric bill, on British gas's dual fuel deal.

    The discount on paying your bill promptly has been lowered several times of late, you'l save more via DD if you use more that 150 ish pounds per year.

    Daveboy - you forgot the golden rule

    I think that also includes statements or info.]
