Re: Anyone with Npower?

I'll leave Scottish Hydro in protest, I've given them a fortune over the years...I don't owe them anything anyway, they owe me money!!

angelic,

You are probably better of staying with who you have for now as they all follow each others price increases.

Then see what Asda, Tesco and the Co-op come up with.

In time they will have to challenge the supermarkets and that should bring fairer pricing.

Re: Anyone with Npower?

O.k I cancelled the verbal contract during the cooling off period and all was well - Scottish Hydro said everything was fine and I'll stay with them...

Then I got a letter saying that they were sorry to see me leaving etc and then the next day I got a letter welcoming me to Npower...so, I phoned Npower to be told that they'd put through 2 contracts for me on the same day and as the 2nd 1 hadn't been cancelled within the 14days, it was valid - wtf? Oh that's right, I wanted 2 accounts for the same address

Been on the phone to both Scottish Hydro and Npower and if they don't sort it out between them, neither of them will be getting a f00king penny off me and I'll go elsewhere!

Re: Anyone with Npower?

I would back up what everyone has said here, I was with BG on the essentials tariff due to my disabilities.

Had a door step salesman from npower knock my door with the usual bullshite pitch I told him that as I am on the essentials tariff due to my disabilities I have doubts if it could be beaten.

He said "sure we can beat any current tariff" so we switched thinking that we would be on a similar tariff.

Well that was not the case we where put on there standard tariff.

I did get it sorted in the end and returned to BG without penalty however they will lie through there teeth just to get a sale.

I am now waiting for asda or tesco to join the ranks in the hope they will challenge the energy market head on.

The Co-operative also now sell energy and if you are a co-op member you get a £50 sweetener at the beginning as well as the points on every payment.

Britons face jump in energy bills, Bank of England warns

Britons face massive rises in their gas and electricity bills, the Bank of England warned as it laid out its latest forecasts for inflation.

The Bank's projections for the economy assume that between the coming July and March next year the UK will see a 15pc rise in domestic gas prices and a 10pc rise in domestic electricity prices.

Just three months ago, the Bank was only expecting a 5pc increase for households' gas prices to come in.......More on All About Forums News:

A Mention about SSE Utilities as well:

Energy firm guilty of mis-selling to doorstep customers

Scottish & Southern Energy (SSE), has been found guilty of tricking people into switching from their existing energy firms.

SSE's sales agents had used misleading sales scripts when talking to people on their doorsteps, between September 2008 and July 2009. It had claimed they were paying too much to their current suppliers when this was not the case......More on All About Forum News:

Re: Anyone with Npower?

Sorry just seen this as not been around

DON'T GO WITH N POWER!

The ex changed to them some time back, and all was going ok ish then they put my monthly DD up to I think something like £120 for gas and £100 for elec - i told them this was too much and it was only because of the winter months etc... and lo and behold come the summer i was in hundreds of pounds of credit with them but he refused to change my DD.

I had terrible trouble getting the money back that they had in credit so finally decided to change so now with British Gas and even after my winter readings i pay £55 for gas and £30 for electric.

so for me N power is a big big NO NO
