    I'm supposed to be tied into a scheme that keeps my gas price the same for x amount of years, so, we'll see if it works

    We've just changed to British Gas, only a month ago. Be interesting to see what they will do with us also, because rates were supposed to be guaranteed.:eyes up:

    We have recently changed our gas and electric over to utility warehouse. Its the cheapest bills we have had in a long time.

    Not sure.

    I didnt know anythign about utility warehouse until my mates parents went with them and then couldnt believe the savings. They put me in touch with the local agent chap that sorted it out for them. We have been with them for nearly 3 months and it works out about £15 per month better for us and do remember that it is the summer at the moment.
