    Neon Reef seems the next cheapest for us. EON seem about the most expensive!

    In all honesty I don't expect NR to last more than another month.

    They might soldier on for a while yet as they have probably had a big influx of customers recently from failed suppliers which will improve their short term cash flow

    however they have started taking the first direct debit just a week after applying to join rather than the previous three weeks which probably is not a good sign

    I'd agree - just more faffing in a few weeks. 
    Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers

    I think I'd rather faff in a few weeks than pay the extra £150 it would cost to stick with Eon.
  • I’ve given yesterdays meter readings to Symbio, registered with Eon and given them the same reading. The Eon site is only offering me a 24 month fix (might be a glitch) but the standing charge and unit rate are both appalling. Just need to wait and see what Eon say when they get in touch and take it from there.  Genuinely interested to see what you folks are going to do in a few weeks time.

    Just looking at their variable tariff and it could have been a lot worse.

    With Symbio, I was looking at using around £25 a month and was paying £32 a month by DD.

    Plugging the new prices into my spreadsheet, I am now looking at around £48 a month.  I think the killer will come in January when my Zog expires :/

    Any idea what this means (it's on the OFGEM webiste).
    E.ON Next will put all ex-Symbio Energy customers on a deemed tariff rate before contacting them to provide personalised tariff information, which is protected under the energy price cap. 
    Deemed tariff then personalised information???

    I'm guessing they mean in contact with the deemed tariff rates

    Could be different rates depending on payment method for example.
    There are different caps for DD, credit and Pre-payment.
