    Is that the EDF tariff with electricity at 16p a unit? Why pay that when other suppliers charge 11p or less?
    No it's not a 16p a unit tariff.   An EDF agent in an online chat did mention 16.41p day rate tariff but coupled with 8.30p night rate and Standing charge 23.63p.

    Which suppliers are offering 11p or less and what is the corresponding night rate and standing charge?


    I still have 12 days to find something better.  :)

    Day rate:  23.31p   Night Rate: 4.76p   Daily Standing Charge: 24.59p
    I use 80% - 85%  night rate.
    Nice night rate, especially if you have storage heaters and an EV.  How long is it available for, is it Economy 7 times?
    Wonder whether you could change the wiring and have another meter and MPAN supplied by a different cheap single rate company (such as Neon Reef) at around 12p/kWh?  You'd then be able to have your cake and eat it !

    Electric warm air (basically a large storage heater) + 2 other storage heaters.  7 hours a night on the night rate. Currently 01:30 - 08:30am (goes back an hour when clocks change  : ;) )

    Interesting idea re: Neon Reef but I'll probably leave things as they are. Might be moving  :smile:
