Good news!
Time to finally get off a fixie with my current provider.
I thought I was so smart locking in when the prices started going crazy, fully expecting the govt to sit on their hands.
In the end, it all got subsidised anyway, and now I’m on a pricey fix.If you are interested in Octopus - I can shove you my referral code - you get £50, I get £50 if you end up using it.
Hmmm… 2024…. isn’t there supposed to be some sort of big thing happening involving politicians. And of course the British people can see right through any attempt to bribe them. Can’t they?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Domestic energy prices will fall by 16% in April, according to a prediction by consultancy Cornwall Insight, bringing some relief to billpayers.
If this continues, we could see energy costs hitting their lowest since the Russian invasion of Ukraine," said Craig Lowrey, principal consultant at Cornwall Insight.
Under Ofgem’s price cap, the annual bill for a household in England, Wales and Scotland using a typical amount of gas and electricity, paying by direct debit, stands at £1,928.
“Concerns that events in the Red Sea would lead to a spike in energy bills have so far proved premature, and households can breathe a sigh of relief that prices are still forecast to fall,” Mr Lowrey said.
The regulator is proposing adding £16 to a typical household bill between April and March 2025 to give suppliers the funds to offer prepayment plans and write off debts.
Last week, Chris O’Shea, the boss of British Gas owner Centrica told the BBC his pay last year of £4.5m was “impossible to justify” when others were struggling.
