Complex meter, how to switch
Options
Comments
-
Good news, customers on complex meters from any of the main suppliers are being allowed to totalise onto any standard meter tariff offered by any of the main suppliers. You will not have to have a physical meter change and will not have to pay to swap.
Its a new requirement that comes into force later this year as part of the CMA investigation. Think the rule comes into force in September 2017.
Smaller suppliers are not included in the order.

As a warmwise customer you will be able to swap to any standard meter product offered by the big six. They will add up the consumption of all your registers and charge them at the single rate.
This is what the eon advisor did, but it doesn't work. The single rate is a lot higher considering I use a lot of energy during the cheap off-peak rate. Going into 1 single rate will add hundreds to my annual bill, as the eon sales advisor quoted in the phone call.
I'll just stick with edf and try reduce usage. Thank you.Thought for the day: each generation of mankind tends to hug the illusion of having reached the culmination of human achievement. Yet, as we scoff at our groping ancestors, so our descendants will surely scoff at us.
