I've just done a Cheap Energy Club quote, one of the cheapest was nPower which charges a daily rate - Is this daily rate include in the predicted cost/savings rate?

The Gas and Electric Kwh is obviously included but is the daily/standard charge?

    Yes, the daily standing charge will be included in an annual quote. What would be the point of not including it?

    Great - No point.. just didn't know if it was that clever, as it is only a few providers that charge a daily rate..

    I'll correct that, most providers make a daily standing charge.
    Another bright idea from the !!!!!! at Ofgem

    I think that ALL providers will end up moving to the single tariff / standing charge model.

    Which disadvantages very low users.
    Ebico still had a single nsc unit rate last time I looked, but its not right for everyone.
