    I can confirm that Fuse use the variable DD method.  I have no idea if you can transfer EDF credit to Fuse.  The variable system suits me fine, rather any excess funds are in my bank account than theirs.  Be interesting to know how much money belonging to clients these utility companies hold onto.  Bet its substantial.

    I prefer variable direct debit too - makes it easier to switch to another supplier because you don't have to worry about a huge debt or credit with the old supplier account.

    I contacted Outfox yesterday and they said they only do fixed direct debits so I decided to switch to Fuse instead.

    Yes they do both.  I switched from Octopus, it was painless.  Just as a reminder, it's app based (i missed this bit). I'm saving 15p a day on the electricity standing charge alone.

    Switched to Fuse V3 last night online they contacted me this morning to say I can only switch to their new v4 tariff which is more expensive! Changing rates during a switch is sharp practice. Avoid.
    I hope that they honour the special tariff offered thru USwitch on 18th August !- my switch is underway due to complete tomorrow (if the 4 working day switch process works)

    I switched to 13mth v3 on Monday Anna it is due to complete on 22nd. Both the Fuse app and my account with Uswitch show the V3 tariff if you want to check. There is a minute decrease in the electricity tariff and a larger increase in the gas tariff on v4 in the East Midlands region but it doesn’t make a significant difference overall.

    One confusing thing I've just found with the Fuse app. It allows you to add other properties but how do you delete them?

    My switch via Uswitch has stalled. I'm on chat to Fuse now as they wanted me to choose a new tariff that will cost me ~ £40pa of my savings. Uswitch shows v3 but the Fuse app shows address ,DD set up but no tariff !

    I've been presented with no choice ! by Fuse if I want to switch - I have to choose the slightly more expensive v4 to complete the switch process then the chat agent says he will arrange a manual change to v3 . I'll believe it when I see it !  Still worth doing as it saves £125 pa even on v4
