I’m sorry I know this forum is full of posts asking the same thing but honestly I’m so ruddy confused I have no idea what to do. The following shows my current fixed and the new SVR that appeared today on EDF app. Read posts that say fixed my get a discount but not everyone (depends on your unit price)

  • Hi - it's a nightmare, isn't it?

    Just to clarify - are the figures at the top of the screenshot the SVR for E7 for your region and are they giving you the option to change to that? Have they said anything about exit charges?

    Assuming that is the case, whether it's best to stay or go will depend on your usage. If you check your last annual statement from EDF it will show your annual consumption in kWh for both day and night. If you post that here, we can do the sums for you.

    Hope this helps :)

    Wait and see.    You are asking a bit too early.  More details are going to come.

    Hi thanks for your reply. Yes figures at the top are the SVR for E7 for our region (north wales) I have the option to change to this now.  We have an exit fee of £150 but on live chat last week edf said they wouldn’t charge the exit fee.  My last bill is below (we are billed 6 monthly (pay DD monthly)

    It would be more helpful if you post the bottom of the bill, the bit that shows your estimated annual usage
