Tempted to switch to this company as comparison suggests a saving of £450! However I am apprehensive as customer services issues with smaller providers seem widespread.
What is the worst that can happen?
Seems worth a shot for 450 quid!

    You pay over £2K for your gas and electric? Good grief!
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    They are, of course, terrible at supplying electricity.

    there's a whole thread on ExtraEnergy here, i think we're in the teething problems/overwhelmed with customer numbers stage at the moment, but not too bad considering they've only just started up.
