Switching energy companies...any to avoid? Any recommendations...


Recommended Posts

Sorry, bit of a bore me, snore me post but...

I'm thinking of switching energy companies but wary of ending up with one that are a pain in the you-know-what to deal with.

I'm currently with British Gas, I don't find their customer service too bad but reckon I can save a lot by switching...there's loads out there though offering better rates.

Npower are said to be avoided at all costs.....any others, does anyone know? Or anyone had good experiences they can share? people generally only to take the net to write bad reviews.

Cheers!

It is my understanding that scottish gas own the hardware (pipe etc.) and therefore their prices are the best.

I have switched with them and found that to be case.....and when I have to call them someone actually answers.....good enough for me.

    • It’s been closed for several months, I think.
    • I've not posted any restaurant reviews here for a while, but with the long Easter weekend approaching I thought I'd serve an update. I recently reviewed The Palmerston and elsewhere became involved in a debate about the best pub lunch in SE22. So which ones do people here currently rate?  Yes I know people can just do a search for "Best pub lunch" but as well as new eateries popping up all the time two of the places I've reviewed – EDT and Bishop – have had a reboot since I reviewed them so I'm interested in hearing how they are doing now. FYI I'm still not charging people to read my reviews or subscribe (though they can pay if they are inclined) and I still haven't had any cease and desist letters from other food people who have used the word "Eats" in their name. And I put a lot of work into these reviews. They aren't just a couple of dashed off sentences saying what is good/bad. When not doing this for fun I'm a professional journalist. If people want to nitpick and be pedantic I'll just have to learn to live with it. https://eatsdulwich.substack.com/ 
    • Have there been any happy outcomes yet?  I was reminded of this thread by Kate Bradbury's recent two minute Radio4 Tweet of the Day spot on swifts and swift boxes.  She even plays their calls out of her window hoping to attract them.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0029yp8 Coincidentally, last week I came across a planning condition attached to the permission (24/AP/3592) granted to the old Melbourne Grove GP premises, that they install "no less than four bee bricks."  They're specifically for so-called solitary bees, who seem to be regarded as equally busy and deserving.  Kate B. mentioned that Brighton now attaches a similar condition, requiring swift boxes in all new-builds.  Might Southwark be doing so too?
