I'm on a fixed Scottish Power tariff until Jan 2015 (31/12/2014) it has an exit fee of £30.64 - is it worth switching, we use 1750 Kwh per year single rate meter. The fixed EDF 2017 looks a deal ??

If any of you are thinking of moving to a company called EBICO whatch out and check them out and read their small print they are linked to SSE who were fined £10.5 for lying to it's customers in April 2013 .

What people should really be asking is what gives these companies the right to help themselves to the natural resources of this country and then charge the people who are the supposed beneficiaries of the public trust of the country exorbitant rates for energy, while creaming off massive profits for their private shareholders?

Get solar panels and get other energy options . Prices are just going to go through the roof . Get shut of these leaches, who are protected by your government .
