I recently used the SimplySwitch service on THIS site, specifically choosing fixed tariffs. It recommended E.ON SaveOnline 8 - and all the blurb seemed to indicate that it was indeed a fixed tariff.

However, having got the paperwork today, I can see that it is NOT fixed, so I'm going to have to cancel it and look again.

Thanks for nothing, MSE...

    I am sure you are disappointed Onlyroz but your comment does seem a little harsh; i have not seen any errors in information provided by MSE before and mistakes can happen in any walk of life.

    I hope you find a product that suits you without too much trouble.

    Hi onlyroz,

    I'm sorry that there was some confusion around the SaveOnline 8 tariff.

    Just to make it clear, this is a variable tariff not fixed, so if the unit prices increase or decrease, this tariff will be affected.

    If you need any more info from me, just shout up.
