Hi Im in the same boat as original poster on websaver10 until 29th Feb and OVO seems cheapest for me however I believe all the utility companies are the same and the savings are minimal, so I was just going to remain with BG using their online saver tariff which is a minimum 4% under the standard tariff with no cancellation fees, so if a really super deal comes up I can just shift. I also looked at the cancellation fee from BG for leaving the contract early and its £60 (£30 ea) the saving with OVO was £40 in the year so as I said Im thinking of using their online saver tariff and listen out for any better deals on the market.cheers shrewdalx0

Not so. Why don't you just use a comp site with your annual kWh figures and it will tell you the answer in seconds?
Just factor in any ETC's against the potential savings if necessary.No free lunch, and no free laptop0 -
