Switching from EDF Energy
I joined EDF Energy (Sainsburys Energy) a few years ago with capped prices until July 2010. Does anyone know if the price goes up substantially after this date (I suspect it might) or what other good offers there are around at the moment? Also is the general consensus to fix or not fix? Thanks in advance! Donna
