Ecotricity refused to set up an account without my date of birth — is this allowed?
I’ve had my identity stolen previously, so I’m very careful about certain personal information. I tried to set up an account with Ecotricity at a new residence but when I refused to give them my date of birth, they refused to set up the account, saying that they could not verify my identity through a credit-check. Are they…

Smart meter installation issues
Good afternoon I signed up to a tariff with Ecotricity that required me to have a smart meter or agree to have one installed. I didn’t arrange this in a timely enough fashion so they took me off the tariff but said they’d put me back on if I arranged the smart meter installation. I agreed to have one installed and an…

Octopus 4G Smart Meters

Got mine done today but noticed after the installer had left that both the HAN and Gas LEDs weren't flashing to indicate they are working and my IHD also wasn't connecting. Do I have to wait until Octopus does something their end or should the HAN be…

Fuse is still Paddington?
Mornin' all. Today we are switching from EDF to Fuse - and when I switched on the smart meter I found it displayed our supplier as "Paddington". A thorough search on the internet initially showed very little, especially on the Fuse info at Companies House. However I now find that Fuse acquired Paddington several years ago…

Sneaky British Gas
I'm on a fixed tariff with British Gas via MSE Energy Club. From today the unit rates for gas and electric have been reduced as promised. However after checking the new prices on the BG app I find that sneaky British Gas have increased the standing charge for gas and electric. I thought standing charges were staying as…

Unable to submit meter reading to British Gas
I've repeatedly tried to submit today's reading. At first I could not log in - "something went wrong" message keeps flashing up, not even for long enough to take a screenshot. Then log in but get the "something went wrong" message again. The home page says to send a meter reading by 15 April. However, I can't remember…

New electricity tariffs
Today (1 April) my energy tariffs changed, which, according to the chancellor, will save me money. I use as little electricity as possible, and am on a prepayment smart meter with British Gas.

Back billing - but in credit so Energy Ombudsman found in favour of supplier
Can anyone help with this please? 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…
