There is a new utility company that's just come on the market a few months ago, I say few months it started around September. They are cheaper than any of the main 6 UK company's in that they don't make a profit on the utilities they sell. Instead, they charge a monthly fee depending on how much you use, from £6.99 for a low user, under 2399Kwh to £13.99 for users of more than 6000Kwh, that's just £167.88 then your gas and electric usage on top.
As an example British Gas wanted me to pay £705 for the year that was nearly £59 per month but this new company will charge me just £32.07 a month although a check just before writing this and the same figures gave a price of £37.84 per month but are I bothered as they have given me a quote on how much I will pay each month and how much each unit costs. I have about 1000 units to play with in my price bracket before my monthly membership fee would go up so am not really bothered as I am saving about another 50p per day just switching the TV/blu-ray/ DVD/games consoles off at the socket when not in use.
Want to know who this company is? I bet you do they are outfox the market and I have saved £80 plus before I looked at the tariff, which for me is 10.45p and 3.25p with a £8.99 fee on the electric which is £107.88 rather than my suppliers 26.1p per day, or £190.53 standing charge per year.
Now the update on the outfox the market as I moved to them on 4/1/18.
Until I contacted them about not getting monthly statements at the beginning of April it took about two weeks to get the statements added to the account. When I look at them I got a shock, as I was on British Gas free time before the move the statements had an opening meter reading of 7906 but my meter reading is taken at around 09:30 AM was 9776, some 1870 difference to the reading I gave them at 09:00AM. Of I go to my old BG account to see if there is anything from the account still there, luckily there were the final meter readings so I took a screen capture and cut it down to just the readings. It had two readings for the electric, the units used Monday to 09:00am Sunday & the free time units used since I moved on to the scheme added together the 7906 and the free time units of 1844 gave a reading of 9750 a lot closer to the reading I took at around 09:30. I should have known when I contacted them with the first meter reading when I was asked when I took the reading after I gave them it.
Today I called them 27/4/18 and told them I had been asked to call in regards to my email. they got my email up and the attachment then said they would query it with my old supplier.
They told me it would take a couple of weeks, this was done in just under 4 minutes on the phone
