Which UK Energy Supplier Gives the Best Deal ?

[Airborne]

If you need a headache, this is the ideal prescription for it.

 

I have been with British Gas, EDF, Southern Electric and some I have forgotten. My conclusion is that it is a spaghetti junction of misinformation and lots of nice figures that never seem to blossom into practical economic gains.

 

Somehow, the mathematics of net gains take a dramatic reversal into an inverse function of net loss. The mind boggles.

 

Only a budding Einstein protege can come anywhere near understanding the bunkum they throw at you before you sign up. The different Tariff`s and layered unit charges defy resolution by the most advanced computer. So we take it all in, sign up and find our bills are still as high or higher than before.

 

I am currently on a dual energy deal with Sainsbury's Energy (British Gas incognito) with their Nectar points and promise to meet the lowest price in the top 6 suppliers - HUH ! We'll see.

 

Question ?

 

Who is your energy supplier and how satisfied are you with your annual combined fuel bill ?

I'm with EDF on a fixed contract to 2014 ... from 2 years ago.

 

The thing to do, if possible, is to identify your past usage and cost then compare any new offers using the cost per unit minus any discounts for duel fuel direct debit etc.

 

Telephone conversations with suppliers who are using "average figures" or comparing monthly direct debit amounts are just fanciful.

I used one of those 'compare' websites - tower utilities and they gave me cheaper deal than I had so I'm glad swiched my provider.

Who did you switch from and who to ?
