Yes i know about the price rises that are coming
but my 1 year deal ends next month so thought i would ring in to get a quote for next year
first, it took nearly 3 hours of waiting on the phone over 3 days to get through :-( then i was told my monthly charge would go up 3x on gas and double on electric and i am £150 in credit
this is crazy but what can you do? i have been a loyal customer for many years
do you take their deal or wait?
Martin L says wait but is that the right desision?
These are indeed tough times for users of energy, and current and future prices are indeed a shock to those fortunate enough to have been on fixed rates until now.
Loyalty isn't a factor nowadays as all the suppliers are charging at or just under the price capped rates. Switching is therefore a bit pointless.
