    British Gas hikes fuel bills - again

    http://business.timesonline.co.uk/ar...045453,00.html

    ho ho ho, nice one...

    "Millions of consumers are bracing themselves for further dramatic increases to their fuel bills after British Gas today confirmed plans to hike its energy prices by 22 per cent as from the beginning of next month.



    This is the second time in six months that the Centrica-owned group has increased the price of its gas and electricity supplies to customers - as part of rises it insists it has been forced into as a result of the soaring cost of fuel on the wholesale markets.

    Even with today's planned increases, British Gas claims it will still shoulder some of the extra costs it has had to suffer.

    According to price comparison service uSwitch.com, the price rises will add £1.08 billion to British consumers' gas bills and the average household bill will surge to £1,005. ",


    will anyone have any disposable income left ?

    Having worked for them, I'm not suprised. They define the word useless.
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

      But its ok because if you join them they wont raise prices on you after 1 March for a few years.

      Just a pity they will be raising their prices before the 1 march price guarantee comes in!

      That in itself must be false advertising or at the very least dodgy advertising eh?
