    Thanks for that - I signed up with them in April and knew they where the last to increase prices at the time. Oh well, just have to see how it goes

    Sadly no, I am in the process of changing from them as I wanted to go onto a capped tariff and they don't offer that. I have no complaints about their service and one of the good points of being with them was that on the anniversary of joining them I got a months payments refunded to me - apparantly this would have continued every year - not sure if this is restricted to certain tariffs or what - I wasn't aware that I would be getting a refund until I saw it in my bank account :T

    How large was your refund ? that + they must be far cheaper than any of the capped tariffs ?

    Im only saying because they `allegedly` arent planning any more increases this year :rolleyes: and they have a good history of price rises in comparison to the big boys...

    They are 1 of the "big boys" as they are part of Scottish and Southern. They refund is paid back is the equivalent of the monthly Direct Debit amount, i believe an average of the previous 12 months if the Direct Debit amount has changed during the year.

    Less than 2 weeks ago, I remember you saying something about being fearful of switching to Ebico because of their partnership with SSE

    ...and now you've switched to SSE, albeit under their atlantic name :confused:

    The 'refund' is the average last 12 months payments you have done. So if you pay £10 every month for 12 months; you would get £10 in Month 13(?)

    That how I understand it
