    my new rates from January are:

    Electric: £0.1324/kWh
    Gas: £0.0426/kWh

    From 1st January 2019 your electricity unit rate will change from £0.1048/kWh to £0.1279/kWh.

    Your gas unit rate will change from £0.0362/kWh to £0.0438/kWh

    A 3rd different one from me.

    Gas - 0.0419
    Electric- 0.1339

    To be honest, at this point I think OFTM are plucking figures from thin air. I wouldn't trust them to actual charge the amount they say anyway after their performance in the last 2 weeks!


    I also doubt their ability to stay in business long term. People are with them because they are the cheapest, not for great service. Now they are no longer the cheapest, and are introducing a standing charge, what do they actually have going for them compared to a more well known supplier?

    Rather excessive outrage. They're just an energy supplier who has increased its prices and changed how payments are taken.


    Yup! That's all they've done!! LOL.


    OutFox are a bunch of clowns - there is next to no chance they'll exist this time next year.


    @ Moneysavermum - the email seems to have been sent the email (mine was received 1902)
  • Yes 19:00 tonight
  • Costs vary depending on where you live.

    At the moment it's a choice between green energy network for 12months or egeni for 3 years for £2.70 a month more. Googling energy forecasts it's just going one way so after the hassle of this will probably just go with egeni which has also great reviews.

    Wow, so out of 7 people there are 6 different prices so far.

    Just administering all that must be costly in itself, and there's bound to be a load of people who've received incorrect new prices. This is going to get even messier.

    I'm all for supporting and being loyal to small upcoming business, but its gone too far even for me so will be changing supplier as soon as they take Decembers DD (Currently £2 in debit). I'm pretty confident now that OFTM wont be around for much longer.
