Reply to: Gas supplier - To fix for 12 or 24 months?

[NorthWestPerm2Contr]

I figure that with the OP's history of walking out on a contract when something elsewhere looks better, this one shouldn't be any different.

looks like this unjustified perception is going to stick no matter what!

oh well I might as well embrace it then

Also nobody has given me their Opinion yet:

- Stay put
- Switch to fixed for 12 months
- Switch to fixed for 24 months
- Make my own mind up about simple domestic decisions

Ask yourself - What would SY01 do ?

Try calling the new provider and suggest a 60 month term

[eek]

so that's not a £600 loss then is it!

check this:

Pioneer Energy

They look ok to me. It's not like the energy companies don't make enough profit as it is!

A muppet and their money can do what they want. When they go belly up don't come crying because I will just say told you so....

Fix for 12 months, so you can ask us again in a year.
Not sure why you care about opinions of random people of the Internet tho, I don't even stay in UK long enough to pay gas bulls of my own. How about you save on your bills by relocating to Majorca?

Wait till Millibando fixes for you

I do quite like Ed but I think he really messed up this time. David Cameron style....

I probably wasn't clear as it was two separate issues.

I lost £160 as I was in credit
Bg received an inaccurate figure which they "couldn't" change as my initial reading resulting in me using 4x more in the 6 weeks it took to escape then I have done at any other time

Interesting point you make. I switched my Elec to OVO and it is me who owes them money right now. Same for Gas as well, currently I owe them money so have had to put DD up on both.

And what happens if you are in credit when they go belly up and they cannot pass on an accurate meter reading to the firm you are given in an emergency.

6 weeks with British Gas after the last small supplier went belly up cost me the equivalent of £600....

There is a reason why most people use the big 6, if you don't when they go belly up (and chances are they will if they offer cheap prices) you are shafted.

Fascinating.

Can you please post your shopping receipt next?

Sure thing, let me ask my Butler to get it for me.
