has anyone got the link to the PDF of the previous march fix that ran to 31st march as i can't find it and foolishly didn't keep a copy!


edit: found the fix to march 2015 pdf in my internet history http://www.scottishpower.co.uk/pdf/m201503_OLEFixedPriceMarch2015.pdf

The Feb 2015 offer works out about 7% more expensive for me compared to the March offer. (edit about £50ish a year according to uswitch so 5-6% )

Standing charges are the same but unit cost has a few % bump.

I just worked out its 5.2% more for me than March tariff. Glad I switched in time.

So now here comes the hike, 8.5% to 9% from 6th December.

In the Midlands area the electricity unit price has gone up by 6.7% and the gas unit price up by 4.4% from the March offer to the Feb offer.
Standing charge has remained the same at £250 per year for gas and elec combined.

Switched my Scottish Power tariff to 'Online Fixed Price Energy March 2015' yesterday. I expect they will honour it, as I submitted the form before it was pulled.

Just a bit concerned that their online form only initiates an email back to them with the switching details for them to process manually. Are they living in the nineties? I may as well have sent a fax!

Edit: They have now switched me over, the new tariff is showing on my account online.

Happy now i moved when i did...the new fix would have cost me £49 a year more and there's no other better deal out there now (not for me anyway)! Before i changed to the March 2015 fix i was on the scottish power January 2014 fix so by moving early i've just escaped the latest price rise. Even though it's costing me £130 more per year than my previous fix, i got a good deal!

What if this was true? Imagine a sweat shop with Amstrad PC1512s and IBM XTs running on floppy drives. African child slaves are taught Engilsh so they can do data entry, and are whipped if they make a mistake?

If they have to pay £8million for sneaky doorstep selling,
who's to know they are not using sweat shops like Primark?

My product change is showing as Online Fixed Price Energy March 2015. Still don't know if this is the one which ends 31st March?? Can't even hold on the phone, just tells me to call back. No response to emails and callback requests since Monday. Tbh, I feel like going elsewhere I am so annoyed but can't find a suitable swap.
