Just looking into fixing my gas and electric,a lot of people have been doing this for years I'm not one of them !
Looking at fixing them with npower untill April 2015 but there are options till nov 14 or even march 17 all hav no fees to exit,has anyone any advise on this ? Seems a bit of a minefield to me thus never bothering

Is it feck, prices have gone up in big lumps long before he said owt. They are all a robbing lot of b@stards, wasting £ billions on poxy windmills.

On a positive note I filled up with fuel today in Manchester and unleaded was 127.9 a litre..

did you know some energy companies pay the wind farm owners not to produce electricity as there ancient inferstructure cant handel the increase in power.

Plus farmer giles gets a minimum of 50k rent per turbime for having them on there land which increases each year

So its a coincidence that a few days after he says he will freeze prices , the first one put them up ? I dont think so. Lets say he does get in and he does freeze them , then the global base price rises , who pays for that ?

No, it's a coincidence that they screw everyone as soon as winter approaches so they can pay the shareholders bonuses and the executives huge pension pots and golden handshakes when they **** it up.

I don't disagree that it's unmanageable but somebody has to do something to put the reins on the robbers.

At the end of the day, we are all being screwed

In America, (Florida any how) electricity is 0.12 cents a KWH, equates to about 7p, thats including service charge etc. Just checked my bill and I pay 13.13p per KWH.

On the radio today, somebody called in and mentioned some friends in Brazil pay about £20 a month electricity....

Not defending anyone but did you know UK is one of the cheapest in Europe for energy

Our biggest problem is most of our energy companies are French. France limits the price increase they can levy by law so who do you think ends up making the profit for them. Yes you've guessed it. As said before ROBBING BAS**TARDS.
