I want to highly recommend this company in my own personal experience and also advocate for cleaner energy. This week I've just received this email from my Green Energy provider called Bulb Energy which is great to see especially for the environment:


?Ric, you're a climate change hero! By being with us, You're saving 3,085 kg of CO2 every year. That's the weight of an orca.

Which is equivalent to planting 1,543 trees.

With over 950,000 members, our community is saving 1.4 million tonnes of CO2 each year. That's like planting 722 million trees!?


On top of that, I think are cheapest provider I found last year?and I still think they are cheaper than the big companies?and if you use my own link to join them: they will credit you ?50 on your account:


Benefits:

1. They will pay your exit fee up to ?120 to switch to them

2. They provide 100% green electric and 10% of GAS is green energy

3. You can leave when you like, no exit fee with them

4. Their rate is very competitive, if not cheaper than most, certainly better than the big 6

5. Get ?50 credit when you join with my link: bulb.co.uk/refer/ricardob1020

6. They are a modern company, so dealing with them is easy, and they want to bring cheaper, greener energy to the masses.


Drawbacks:

1. The rate is variable, so they did raise prices once in my 9 months at the time all the other energy companies raised the prices a lot. The raise was only ?0.55 per month and communicated this to me well in advance. Having said that, they lowered my standing cost a few months shaving off ?15 a year, so actually I would say really, no drawbacks.


I?ve been with British Gas, Npower and EDF, but in my opinion, Bulb are modern, easy to deal with, and very communicative in terms of emails they send.


Things to Note:

1. I live in a flat, so have electricity only, not Gas.

2. I will also get a credit if you use my link, but feel free to check them out for yourselves. But I think just switching to green energy is of most benefit to the environment, and they fact they are doing it cheaper than others, it just makes total sense...in my humble opinion.


Switching only takes a few mins, and you could be saving and helping the planet, so worth having a look.

Here?s my referral link again which you must click to take you to the join link if you join without clicking this link, neither gets out credit: bulb.co.uk/refer/ricardob1020


Thanks

Ric

I'm very uncomfortable, for the reasons set out in the attached, with the idea of the forum's being used to help a single poster make money.


I'm asking Admin to remove this thread, as was done with the previous one, or to edit out the link. In the meantime, I suggest that every other Bulb user posts their own referral code here. I'm not going to post mine here, but if anyone wants to pm me for it and I give it to you, I'll also provide eventual evidence of my passing ?50 to a charity of your choice. The ?100, btw, was I believe offered to customers who'd been with the company for a year, instead of the standard ?50.

Ian, I listed all the benefits I could, and the drawback, people are free to make up their own mind. If ppl do switch, they will do so for saving money for themselves and going green to help the planet. If as an added benefit, u can get some credit, what?s the harm?


As I started my post: they emailed me an email showing how good my carbon footprint is, I was impressed and decided to share the love. If more ppl join for cleaner energy what is the harm? If the credit is an added incentive for more ppl to go green, what is the harm???

    • @ ed pete "there still has to be the demand". I don't know but wondering if developers have been able to make a case based on the increase in demand from 2023-2024. The research I looked at said demand had risen by 500 in that period,  but was still below an all time high in 2022.   There will be others who know much more about this area who can give the rationale in favour; perhaps this latest govt. research is incorrect or only gives part of the story. My point is if, as seems likely, this development does little to solve the current housing crisis at local level for the non student population, I hope that the council is very, very sure that this level of student accommodation is warranted at this location. I have not managed to look at the plans in detail but how sustainable are the plans for the build; how will it be heated, what about impact on water and waste services?    
    • There is also I believe some evidence that students are choosing to go to universities, where they do, closer to home so as to avoid additional costs by living at home. Personally I think this is a mistake - being an undergraduate is a first chance for independence - but if economics and costs are making this so the demand for accommodation such as this will again be weakened.
    • A good plumber - Ade Okoosi. He came to do some plumbing for a new kitchen at a flat in Camberwell, sealed up a gas pipe and put in some taps and a thermostatic shower. On another occasion he rapidly removed a radiator. Would definitely use again.  Ade 07961981944
    • Interesting the projected demand.  One imagines that you don't undertake this kind of investment without the business case to back it up.  There's one going up near a friends office in the City that is for 782 students.  OK, these are much closer to HE establishments but there still has to be the demand. https://dominusrealestate.co.uk/projects/65crutchedfriars/
