    Nice to see how it's the smart meter, Ofgem and the supplier who are at fault for your choice. Did the rate go from £120 to £220 in one jump? If so, a smart person would look at changing suppliers.
    In the current market only a grade A muppet would change suppliers (unless things were significantly changing like an electric car arriving).

    Have you been paying no attention to what Martin Lewis has been saying continually since October.

      In credit by about £170. The DD went up in May in one go, and it's close to impossible to change suppliers unless you move house. Anecdotally, new customers are being fleeced even more than existing ones. My 'choice' was made a couple of years ago, when we were on a decent fixed price tarif. It ran out just as the brown stuff hit the fan, and we were unable to switch.

        Why is everyone feeding the troll? It's not remotely true as we well know. Just a post to garner more attention as usual.

          WTFH fed the troll with a stupid comment - we are calling out WTFH for being an idiot.

            I was naive about smart meters. As somebody posted above, they're obviously not very smart.

              The gricer bot is obviously clinically depressed, as well as terminally thick. He's like Marvin the Paranoid Android, but thick.

                Somebody earlier sent me a private message detailing how I can filter out certain posters. Goodbye.

                  And switch to DD payments, it's cheaper.

                  If you are actually overpaying then there will be a credit on your account when they get a real reading. Then they will recalculate.
                  It used to be cheaper on DD. Not any more as you’ll be paying the price cap no matter what method. I cancelled DDs when my supplier went pop and have no intention of turning them until a discount is offered.

                      I use Twitter in preference to call-centres. Often gets a direct response.
