BG moves cancellation date(s)???.

Hello. Whilst sorting thro` tariffs using Energyhelpline, i checked my
current tariff T&Cs., finding the 6% discount and early cancellation fee dates had altered from Oct.1 to Nov.1. I checked the BG
site and found nothing changed, so I emailed EHL pointing out this
anomaly, referring them to BG T&Cs. To my surprise EHL replied
stating they had spoken to BG and the `extension` of these dates
is correct and that i should contact BG to discuss the matter!!
I have no intention of contacting BG prior to Oct 1, and then only
to switch suppliers.
This `extension` may, of course be a simple error, but it has crossed my mind that if this is an `accross the board` move by BG, perhaps
less aware folk might find themselves being charged `early` cancellation
fees because of this. Pls. see EHL site/ BG site, and check your
T&Cs. My current tariff- BG websaver 8 dual fuel.

    The tariff has been extended as it is cheaper than current offerings but the cancellation fees do not apply during the extra month
  • Hello. Yes BG emailed today with same explanation. The EHL site was either misinformed, or misunderstood BG`s update.
    As the customer, i should have been informed first, or at the least BG should update their T&C`s pages inline and prior to
    general release. Anyhow, all sorted now. Thanks.
