Electricity needed for new flat, but no clue where/how to start.
I am moving from a private house share rental to a one-bedroom flat in a 55+ rental housing complex. The gas is included, but I need to connect/find an electricity supplier.
The warden said they think the last tenant was with SSE, but I am a complete technophobe and can't find how to get a quote from them or find a comparison from another supplier.
The property is in Buxton, a one-bedroom, single occupancy, I am drawing the maximum state pension and working P/T 24 hours a week on minimum wage, plus a monthly payment of £60 from my ex-partner's pension. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as I am extremely confused.

You MUST contact the existing supplier (SSE) and give them meter reads and your bank detail. Others will comment as to whether you go for SVT of a fixed tariff following this weeks announcement.
There's no real option re alternative suppliers at the moment.
Don't forget to read the meter at the old propertyNever pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
