Tell me about it. I got my statement today and they are trying to change my monthly direct debit from £46 per month to £159. I am hoping they have made a huge error because unless I am heating a swimming pool I don't know about surely they can't be increasing bills by that much???

Nice, just in time for all the winter bills too, very convenient for them.
Time some stronger regulation of the energy companies was put in place,they are just simply greedy parasites.

Very true instead of just paying lip service to this problem.

Yep they are definitely in cahoots, even those who tried to counter energy rises with solar power saw the buy back tariff reduced.
How many more will be faced with the heat or eat dilemma this year?

[Harry!]

That's such a surprise, especially as winter is fast approaching!

I take loads of calls every week from people complaining bitterly about the prospect of gay marriage and wanting their MP to represent their views. Strangely, there's not been one call today complaining about this. Everyone should email their MP. Make a noise. They work for you whether you voted for him/her or not... remind them that they are public servants and you want something done.

British gas 6% rise
N power 11%!... greedy feckers.
