Having just come off of a fixed tariff, I am horrified to see my energy bill will increase by over 80% from the end of May.
I've seen the "fix your tariff" messages and looked at a quote and NONE of the fixed rates offered are any lower. How can the energy companies sleep at night knowing that most of their customers - even those with well paid jobs - are being royally shafted?
What options are there open to people when even switching is no longer an option to save money?
Your energy saving tips are a joke - like a good citizen I applied for insulation etc. in the past and had my loft re-insulated but my cavity walls cannot be insulated as someone did a half baked job years ago (before I moved into my current house) using materials that cannot be mixed with what is used today.
On top of this, my heating system is based on a Warm Air system, so my house is not fitted with radiators, so your tips in that area is as much use as a chocolate fireguard.
My family and I are as energy efficient as I can within the limitations of the house I live in, but am seriously at a loss as to how I'm going to find nearly double the money to maintain my household.
One question that is never satisfactorily answered in my opinion is why prices are so high, especially when EON claim my energy is 100% renewable. I thought renewables were the future and cheaper, which is clearly nonsense.
Ultimately, you don't care about your customers, just lining the pockets of your shareholders.
