I have been on this tariff for a couple of years, thinking that due to the wording above that this would be the cheapest tariff that EDF Offer.

IT IS NOT and it has not been for quite awhile. If you are on this tariff then please check around you can get cheaper than this, also bear in mind that this tariff will be subject to the GAS 15.4% and Electricity 4.5% increase on November 2011
