Do I switch to fixed deal?

For your usage UW might work.

You need to add two additional services, £12 Sim, and not sure if it was £14 or £16 insurance, so the cost on top of their rate is 12*£28.

It works out for high users only. What rates have been offered?

Quoted by UW £346 per month for fixed deal with broadband and sim included in package ? 
So there not much in difference between the fixed deal v SVT with Ebico ?

From the calculation @[Deleted User] for £4200 for the other fix you are worse off with UW.
12x346=4152 plus over £300 for the additional services you need to take makes it more expensive.

All the add-on services are very overpriced. £12pm for a SIM only deal that Plusnet would do for £6? £40 for a line rental, calls and broadband deal worth £30?

346 includes the other 2 services, typically i have just renewed my broadband deal but within the 14 day cooling off period so can cancel it if required. So does that make it better deal?
Also did the UW quote last night has the price changed today from what i can see on MSE site ?

They look to still be offering Green Fixed 39. However rates quoted are for Midlands area. Your rates may be different if you live elsewhere

Iwhen I got quote not sure no fi it was how long has the 39 been live for ?  
Is it still a good deal?

Update had revised quote and just for my energy quote of £312 a month with UW
Unit coats electric 71.16kwh
S C 37.0
                   Gas 16.5kwh
SC 17.3
With the other 2 services it takes me to 346 monthly 
So how does this stack up against my figures above if I stay on SVC?

I can do some numbers in an hour or so unless someone gets there first

Comparing your fix with two different recent predictions - just your energy use without the extra services.





I don't get the same direct debit predictions as they are offering you.  Are you sure they're using these annual usage figures?

Looks like a great deal compared to the most expensive recent prediction, but not so good value compared to the cheapest recent prediction (less than £10 per month cheaper and it doesn't include the extra services you would need to take).

It's up to you whether you think reality will be better/worse/the same as any prediction.  Guessing next year's caps at this point isn't an accurate science.
