We have been trying to sort out out Gas & Electric tariff for the past 2 days and feel as if we are hitting our head against a brick wall!!!!!
We are interested in getting a tariff cap for both Gas & Electricty, we saw Martin on GMTV this morning who heavily pointed out that the best/cheapest capped tariff finishes on Monday morning. We have tried for the past 3 hours to find out which company this is, does anyone know which company this is?
We are currently with British Gas and we have been told that its best practice to change every 6 months.
We have also been told that dual fuel tariffs are generally not the best tariff to have and that you should have your Gas & Electric with two seperate companys. Does anyone have an opionion on this?
A comparison site has suggested Atlantic for Gas and EDF for Electricty. Having called Atlantic, they do not do a capping tarrif, they say there prices are the cheapest on the market and will always be the cheapest on the market. However our concerns are that even if they are the cheapest on the market if prices rise 30% +, which are predicted, then there prices will still rise 30% +.
If anyone can advise us on these matters, we'd be very grateful.
Thank you in advance
