    Yes it is as all the prices are shown without VAT and then with VAT.
    £28.58 + 5% of £28.58 = £30

    The discount is to the total cost of the fuel and standing charges which are subject to VAT so any discount must also be subject to VAT.

    Missed that, not on form today. But area prices do change, not quite the single tariff for electricity and gas, as advertised. Though I can understand the extra cost of moving gas to Lands End from Herbrandston or possibly Grain. Not quite the same for electricity.

    In the end, you get the same cash discount applied to your annual costs and £30 looks better than £28.58 so it is nicer to only see the +VAT details. :)
