Customers in greater Belfast will see prices fall by up to 10% from October. Those in the 'Ten Towns' gas network outside Belfast will get a 5% cut.

I'm waiting patiently for Power NI/ NI Electricity (whatever banner they're hiding under) to cut their prices.
At the minute they're just stealing money from the ordinary punter.

  • Answer - they are spending our money in giving bonuses to their chief executives and share holders. Funny when the price of oil or gas rises the power companies up their prices ASAP but when they come down their have to be made kicking and screaming to bring them down. Funny that but the joke would appear to be on us.
