Ovo January price rise email

streeve

Hi. Not sure if anyone else has seen this but I just got an email from OVO Energy telling me my electricity price is going up in January. This is on top of the previous EPG price I was put on in October!! Should I query this as I thought prices were held until end of March ?

Almost certainly normal.

Beginning to think that they are going to ovoulate every month.

Suggest everyone e-mails 'Jonathan Brearley' <Jonathan.Brearley@ofgem.gov.uk>; 'Retail Price Regulation' <Retailpriceregulation@ofgem.gov.uk>; 'stephen.fitzpatrick@ovoenergy.com'  and ask

Why? The price cap increases every quarter from January. Just means the government has to plug a bigger gap than present via the EPG already in place.

But I’ll still have to pay a higher rate ?
