Hi there, can anyone tell me what the price in pence is per kwh for their pre payment meter.(southern electric)

british gas tell me that their rate 1 on pre payment meter is cheaper

their rate is 20.048 for the first 500kwh per year then 11.357 after that

i cant seem to find any rates for southern electric and although british gas say they dont have a standing charge they may work out more expensive

kind regards in advance:confused:

    As you are currently with Southern Electric, call them and ask if you can be transferred to Ebico with whom they have a partnership agreement. Recent posts suggest this is treated simply as a tariff change rather than a full blown provider switch.

    You'll still be billed by Southern Electric, still use Southern Electric customer services, etc, but Ebico offer same price for all their customers (including pre-payment customers!) and no standing charges or 2 tier rates.

    Check out Ebico rates here:

    and see how they compare to what you are currently paying.
