OT. Just trailed on bbc news that Brit. Gas prices set to rise (again) by
25%!

Any thing(s) to be careful of re changing to another supplier? Yes I'm
sure
other suppliers prices may go up too - but maybe if enough people change,
competition may start to moderate these huge rises?

I think the energy companies have realised that they do exactly the same as
the oil companies when they increase the cost of petrol. Has anyone else
noticed a trend?

Welcome to rip-off Britain. Guess they will be revealing "record profits"
soon

I guess the hikes will keep the gov happy as well - all those extra taxes
(albiet @ 5%)

British Gas gave customers last year the option of signing up to a scheme by
paying a small premium of approx 3% on existing rates. This "freezes" the
rates paid until 2010. I took up the offer and my latest account confirms
the "freezing" till 2010.

Britain is one of the most competitive economies when it comes to the
supply of consumer goods and services..

Are the rates frozen or capped? Supposing rates drop?

I smell a conspiracy
