Are energy companies acting dishonestly?

Even Octopus  don't show their SVR if you go to the choose a tariff option it just shows two 10 month fixed rate deals. At the moment their site isn't working for me, I expect they're updating the site to the new rates from April

That's what is key the SVT is a hidden fall back tariff that is not promoted by all energy companies so people think their choices are bad choice A or bad choice B

Very dishonest regardless of any Ofgem cover they have.

Simply, yes.
They have been for decades.
I worked for a large energy business for 10 years selling energy to business's.
We were paid between 50 to 100k a year.
We weren't paid that for being fair and reasonable.

Its a national disgrace ands because a few really badly run business's fold because of their own stupidity some use that as an excuse for the big ones....

Energy is like anything really.
You buy it at a price and sell for more.

Happy to answer any questions.
It's a dirty sector and no one exposes it.
Government is scared of them as they threaten turning off the lights.
