A cool 1.5 mill, that payment won't help with the April provisional order.

They are also being investigated now for breach of supply licence for not being able to handle SMETS1 meters.

You'd have to guess that they at least feel they have a chance of beating the provisional order or they would not have agreed to pay the £1.5m ...

That is so true, if my company was about to crash I wouldn't bother paying £1500000 for something.

Received bill for August, as usual bill on time, all data included, VDD to be taken soon.
Also switched tarriffs on 01/08/2025 and everything went well, billed correctly and as expected about 7% cheaper as the day rate is 1p lower and have a chance of cheaper evening now at 20:30.

Hopefully it is a good sign as I'd love the competition to continue, only way I can see this might not work out is if they have just 'robbed Peter to pay Paul' as they have in the past.

Shouldn't be long before we hear though...

I have just rung Tomato Energy CS as my fixed tariff is in its last month, they have assured me that my tariff will roll over until Ofgem decision . Glad as their standard tariff looks horrendous .
