I can't decide. What's the best strategy?
Surely if you move to fixed then your prices will just increase in a staggered fashion? I hear the longer the term of the fixed price, the more expensive it is. But you're only postponing the inevitable?
And I'm with with Scottish Power. If I switch to EDF, surely someone out there will be switching from EDF to Scottish Power. We can't both be right, can we?

That's what the frog thought in the pan:
David Cameron said the solution is to switch.
I have been lying on my left, then when it gets too hot,
switch to my right, but I'm getting hotter and hotter all the time.
Surely the Prime Minister won't be glib and fob me off.
All this heat can't be good for my health, surely?0 -
One reason for switching is you might get cashback by changing supplier, even if the terms aren't much different from tariffs with your current supplier.
Also, terms are different for different parts of the country.0
