in Energy
Hi, I’m trying to get quotes for gas &Electric for our Church. We are coming to the end of our 4 year contract with Opus. The price comparison company’s that I’m dealing with are all telling me that the prices for commercial energy are not the same as domestic and that the prices are not going to be going down in June like the media is saying. So I don’t know wether the fix now or wait till Sept when our current contract ends. Any thoughts or wise words would be much appreciated as I’m floundering under a sea of information atm. Thanks

    Read your existing contract very carefully, especially the bits about cancellation charges.

    @babe-ruth  Have you tried Parish Buying ?



    Edit my Commercial rates -  elec 34p; gas 8.5p   plus hefty standing charges
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill

    HI Robin9, I hadn’t even heard of Parish Buying, from what i can make out its just for Church of England churches unless im missing something. I got a quote from ‘Church Energy Purchasing Group’ and ‘Smartest Energy’ so far
