Did you fix in October with EDF?

I fixed in October - with the EDF Blue Price Promise March 2015 tariff.

I have just checked - not expecting much - and found that First Utility is offering a 30 quid saving for me (largely due to lower standing charge, but unit costs lower too, fixed till April.

In addition - TopCashback is offering a 25 quid cashback on people switching electricity to First Utility.

Just a heads up for anyone in a similar position.
Please do check for yourself - as individual positions will vary.

    Before jumping to First Utility, research this site for customer comment on FU.
    It could well be that you decide a £30 saving just isn't worth the hassle
  • Agreed, the saving for me would have to be way bigger than that for me to even consider moving to FU (love their initials btw).

    I do in principle agree.
    However, in practice, possible screwups that they legally will have to fix are worth it for me for a saving of over 50 quid.
  • A pound a week saving (assuming the cash back gets paid) to risk the FU debacle? :eek: Nah. :D
