[Cherie]

What is needed is a hefty price cut, a price freeze means nothing. I am with British Gas, I moved from a fixed rate in October to an alleged lower rate tarriff, plus the 50 quid green tax should have kicked in, they put my direct debit up by 4.00 last month, when I queried it the woman on the other end waffled on that only by using less energy would the DD come down (eh what with a cheaper tarriff and a reduced green tax) when I pointed out that my energy use was less according to their own energy graphs (you compare this years to last years usage), she waffled on a bit more, (pretty sure these people are employed for their waffling skills rather than being helpful) and I came away from the call more confused than I started.

So to recap for those of you that dosed off

50 quid green tax reduction
less energy usage
cheaper tarriff than last year
rise in DD

work that one out.
