If all persons stopped paying their Gas and Electricity bills by Direct Debit and do as i do:Namely wait until you receive your gas bill,then pay by cheque say three weeks later,thus dramatically cutting their cash flow,they might finally realize that we the general public,have had enough of their RIP OFF PRICES.Most Big companies are very late payers to small companies.So lf we the general public give them a taste of their own medicine they might have to sit-up and finally listen.

So, dont pay by DD, but pay it a few weeks later, thats gonna scare them.

So we pay more for the privilage of paying a few weeks later, that will hurt the suppliers.

So lose your discount for DD - which can be substantial - and pay even more.

There really is too much hysteria about 'Rip-off' prices. The £125 profit per dual fuel customer is a snapshot now and making the assumption that profit levels will remain the same for the next 12 months. The same exercise a few months ago gave a figure of £30 or so.

We have some of the cheapest prices in Europe - particularly for gas.

What is a reasonable profit margin per household?

You need to do a reality check, chum; those companies are exactly aware of how far they can go without losing marketshare to a detrimental degree. This is England where we "have always done it this way" and "wait til the dust settles".


And for future reference: it is Britons, not Britains.
