Default Powergen 10% + 30% rant

Sorry, you've missed my point completely - I wasn't talking about
getting monthly payments right, I was talking about not wanting to pay
that way at all.

For the moment Powergen is about the cheapest


Not for electricity round here (East Anglia), where they taken over as
the default supplier (Eastern Electricity - TXU Energi - Powergen).
They're the most expensive.

[...] Well not BG whatever the fugures indicate.


Now who's being irrational? I never had any problem with BG, as default
gas supplier, until their prices started to go off the scale.

What is worth ranting about (IMHO) is the lack of clear visible
published tariffs in this industry. Go to most suppliers' Web sites and
look for their price lists. Usually you can't find any, just useless
'savings calculators' and stuff like that. Where they do exist the
tariffs tend to be well buried in the site without obvious navigation.
