Made counter offer by current provider

I have switched to Npower online 24 which is:-
3.162/3.32(inc VAT) and daily standing charge of 35.40 for gas
8.89P/9/33 and daily standing charge of 35.50
Scottish are offering
20.28 for the first 225 and than 10.251 and 7.751 for the first 670 and than 3.481, sounds cheaper but not sure if its worth it.
My energy use from the 25/10/10 to 22/10/11 was
5647 for leccy and 20223 for the gas.
Just wondering whether I should take them up on the offer

Work it out!
For example, for electricity, this is:
Assuming the first 225 is per month, that's the first 2700 units on expensive, the next on cheap.
2700*20.28 =547
(5647-2700)*10.2 = 300
So, 848 or so for the electricity.
The other is simply 9.33*5647 = 526 plus 365*35.50, or 128 pounds.
Total of 660 or so.
However - if the 225 is per quarter, as might be more reasonable, that leads to different figures.0 -
Npower gas is 3.162p x 20223=£639.45 plus
35.40p standing charge x 365 days = £129.21 = £768.66 plus vat
Elec is 8.89p x 5647 =£502.02 plus
35.50 standing charge x 365 = £129.75 = £631.77 plus vat
You dont say what what company scottish gas or Scottish Power or Scottish and Southern0 -
If the Scottish you refer to is Scottish Power, from my own experience I would be very wary unless you have it writing.Named after my cat, picture coming shortly0
