Are you an E.on customer? Martin Lewis explains an easy way to cut what you pay for energy

[AH--]

They can't bribe me into getting a smart meter.

Thanks Martin just signed up to this. Also thanks for letting me know about Santander saver at 5% glad you did a video otherwise I would have never known about it 👍

Eon gave us a new EV night time tariff for 12 months, meaning instead of the price cap we pay 9p at night and 23p during the day, we are saving 2/3rds of what we used to pay on the price cap as we charge the car, and put the washer and dishwasher on in the night, absolute game changer tariff!

Eon keep telling me i must get a smart meter or my meter will stop working. Are they doing this to anyone else?

[ClaraSais]

Interesting. We are existing EoN customers paying £270 pm (was £340pm) and I have a disabled bedbound father who relies on electric for his bed and equipment etc. will check this out thank you

[yvonnecrisp]

Thanks Martin, just signed up for this tariff after seeing it on your TV show

[jimmybroom]

Thank you Martin. Excellent advice as always. Just switched seems the best option if you are already on EON.

I want to put my parents on this but a smart meter can't be installed as their meter is under the stair case and the house itself pretty much blocks all mobile signals...

[SniffBackBetter]

What happens if you sign up for the tariff then refuse to get a smart meter?

[GodMother.]

So the daft question is what if something happens and you have to exit the contract. EG due to death. Its not like its anything you can do about it. Is it fair to charge a exit fee. Oh and yes l know the team might not see it but this is a open discussion for all.

[nyrtrte]

Martin do you know there is an advert we’re they have you saying to invest in Ellon Musk!

[spicetraderz]

Semantics also agree to have a smart meter installed where eligible" as opposed to Must have.

[johnsmith-dgwn]

Smart meters are not compulsory and it is up to you whether you get one installed. You will likely be offered one by your supplier if you don't already have one, but you are well within your right to refuse.

[raystern]

SKY still up to there old tricks. new customer £36 existing customers £70+ . I'm referring to a bog standard B/Band + TV entertainment package. a friend of mine in her 70's Still having to work to get by, managed to nock them down to £67.40 Discussing.

[celery]

Thats me out, I refuse to have a smart meter installed.

[May]

Thanks Martin. Please be aware, I saw an advert on Youtube this morning, which showed Elon Musk talking about something but using your deep fake likeness at the beginning. I did report it.

[peterwatson]

I've agreed to a smart 'meter' install. I dont really want one but if they want to fit one I don't really care. At least it should save me from having to take meter readings every month. However I don't want to be pushed to a higher direct debit amount than my average annual usage, that would annoy me. At least I can easily do the maths for that and argue it with them. Last time I did this E.on Next were unwilling to reduce the amount but instead let me have a two month payment holiday which ran down the amount of credit I had. This seemed an odd approach but it achieved the desired objective.

[garycannon]

Downside is having to agree to a smartmeter

[bustersbashers]

Yes EASY choice, DEFINITELY NO, NO SMART METER IN MY HOME….. 👍👍🙏🏻

[didley]

Martin I've listened and taken your advice over the last 3-5 years where has it landed me? On smart meters, in debt and stuck on a standard variable tariff by direct debit. All my money tied up in direct debits and no money for food currently using the food bank every month but still short on food the food bank food only lasts 1-2 weeks at most 🤷🏻
