    I got a bill today including my estimated December usage which is strange as I left them on the 11/11! If you do move away, make sure you cancel your direct debit as it looks like they were keen to take that for this month too!!

    Just switched to Green, 10.541p/kWh 23p standing charge, happy to pay the extra 2p standing charge and extra 0.8p/kWh for live chat and a website which functions! They owe me a good 350 in overpayments over the year.... wonder how long it will be before I see that!!

    I've always dealt with Green via their "chat" function - never had to wait more than 10 minutes even in the "height" of the pandemic panic!!

    I did an online quote and came out cheaper than Symbio. However I would need to pay Symbio an exit fee.

    I have now got use to their billing methods. I pay by variable amount each month and their estimate for me in December was only about 100 above what I usually use.

    Don't forget other suppliers would be boring in comparison! 

    Just when I thought electricity couldn't get any cheaper,  along comes Low Fair and Green Variable SE01 v10. Standing charge down to 20p and 10.6p/kWh.
