    Now Orbit Energy are cold calling and claiming to be able to save customers money on their energy bills; that's impossible because I'm already on the cheapest UK tariff with Outfox The Market (Fix'd 20 9.0)!😂

    It's quiet today; has everyone switched to MSE's recommended Pure Planet? It looks expensive to me, even after £54 bill credit and £25 cashback, not to mention the second year or non-existent customer service!

    Sartois2020, it's true that Outfox The Market have a poor customer rating of 2.3 out of 5 based on 176 MSE reviews, it's also true that MSE have a poor customer rating of 2.3 out of 5 based on 534 Trustpilot reviews, but Outfox The Market have an excellent customer rating of 4.5 out of 5 based on 20,575 Trustpilot reviews!
     but this is a review thread, not a debate forum.

    Fair to say that this is a discussion forum as opposed to a review site ........ :)
    What is the meaning of discussion forum?
    A discussion board (known also by various other names such as discussion group, discussion forum, message board, and online forum) is a general term for any online "bulletin board" where you can leave and expect to see responses to messages you have left. Or you can just read the board.

    Gerry1, Simply Switch is another comparison website that don't list Outfox The Market because they don't pay commission, I've seen at least half a dozen this year!

    Pure Planet charges a monthly membership fee of £8/fuel in place of a daily standing charge, however, when Outfox The Market started with this business model, they only charged £6.99/electricity and £0/gas (similar to today's daily standing charge of £0.11/fuel)!
  • I've been with Outfox The Market since January 2018, through their brief bad spell and have always had the cheapest tariff of all comparison sites - and I checkl it quite often. Their online Help Assistant is excellent and you always get a transcript of the chat.

    I tried to join in 2018, but they didn't accept E7, so I joined the next cheapest Eversmart Energy, which was a disaster because they didn't even send me a bill until this month and I joined Outfox The Market as soon as they accepted multi-rate meters in 2019!

    You're missing a trick there - surely you would have been aware of sister company Economy 7 Energy, preferably with magic dust radiators as well?
