Any No-Standing Charge Gas Only suppliers left?

Are there any suppliers left who will supply Gas only on a no-standing charge tariff?

I have very low gas usage (c. 1 unit per quarter) and am currently supplied by Ebico. However, they have just informed me that next year's tariff will introduce a minimum charge of £104 for Gas (compared to £0 that I pay at the moment).

I am not averse to a small standing charge on Gas (but cannot find anything less than 10p/day at the moment - £36.50/yr). Also, a two-tier tariff would be fine.

Struggling, and uSwitch is no help (suggests Ebico, comments as above, and Utilita who deny that they offer Gas only).

    Not found any myself, you might look on a Landlord or Holiday home forum as these seem to be clued up.

    Green.Energy lowest I found which seems to be the 10p a day you have found, I will subscribe to this as I am always on the lookout for a zero standing tariff.
  • Utillita do not do gas only, as they rely upon smart meters. Gas smart meters send the readings to the electricity smart meter.
  • Hi, I am in the same situation. I don't seem to be able to find the 10p per day gas standing charge supplier - can you point me in the right direction, please?

    Outfox The Market - One Variable 7.0

    Electricity unit rate: 12.75p per kWh. Electricity standing charge: 10.5p per day.
    Gas unit rate: 3.09p per kWh. Gas standing charge: 10p per day

    Depending on electricity usage, might be worth doing a comparison.

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.
  • Thanks for the info.
    This morning I have just noticed:
    E.ON's Fix Online Exclusive v15 tariff (on the MSE cheap energy club search listing)
    which has a gas standing charge of 7.35p/day.
  • Thanks for the info but I have been an Outfoxthemarket customer before and will not go back there!
    I had a lot of grief from the abuse of the Direct Debit arrangement.
