EDF Energy - probate
I am an executor of a will. Probate has been applied for but not granted yet - a caveat has been put on the application. EDF energy will not allow me to make any changes to the tariff that the property is currently billed under. Apparently I can only change tariff once probate is granted which could be some time. The…

Iran conflict: Martin Lewis' 'get off the Energy Price Cap' mini briefing

Should I fix my energy and abandon cheaper fix im on?
I have a fixed tariff until July 26 with BG and with the news about global gas prices rising 43% - I am questioning whether it's worth agreeing a new fix now at £7 more a month, fixed until March 27. Is the consensus that the energy cap is going to go sky high now? Is that additional £50 I'll lose by moving my fix now…

Octopus Tracker
I just wondered about people's experiences with this tariff and whether they feel they are winners or losers. I got a quote from them yesterday, and I have to say I find the numbers highly misleading. The figures are very attractive, beating even the good fixed rate tariff I got from Avro, but presumably based on an…

Outfox Exit Fees £150
I’ve just switched from Outfox to E.ON. I had 11 months left on a 22p/kWh electricity rate, but with the current Middle East crisis causing a 93% spike in wholesale gas this week, I became seriously concerned about the financial stability of smaller suppliers. We’ve seen what happens when the market hits 150p+ a…

Back billing - but in credit so Energy Ombudsman found in favour of supplier

We had a bill shock in September 2025 when our energy supplier sent us our statement and had taken an extra £400 for energy used in March 2023 that they had not charged us for through their own error. (We had provided meter readings). Over the years we had maintained the suggested direct…

At the same time, the gas engineer fitted new thermostats onto the old radiators, but did not mention changing them, despite them being very old (I now know this was not great, but…

Moved both to new supplier (I thought) but now I'm paying someone elses bill
Dad moved into a care home last summer. I look after his flat. Thought it might be an idea to move to a tariff where the standing charge was lower. No-one living there so gas would be zero and just a minimal amount of electricity. So switched from Scottish Power to EDF. Had email from EDF all done. Then I noticed the gas…
