Title: What an honest web site calculator!
Post by: Taxi_Driver on 21 February 2010, 19:25:01
Seeing as British Gas has been advertising its slashed its prices by 7% recently, I thought id check to see how much i could save if i switched.

So told it my last years consumption for both elecy and gas, told it my current supplier....and....

It reckoned it would cost me another 8squid/yr if i switched to British Gas  ;D ;D

Im usually cautious of web site calculators as i reckon they tend to be optimistic and i was ready for it to say you will save xxx if you switch to us.

But not this time   :o ::)

Think i will stay with my current supplier  :y ;D

It's a lottery - whoever you choose, someone else will be cheaper next month.  And if you believe everything you read, U-Switch and the like will get richer quicker. :(

In which case, in a simplistic view, you've been paying 7%+ more than me   ::) ;)

"SWALEC is a trading name of the Scottish and Southern Energy Group of which SSE Energy Supply Limited is a member"

Just the people I'm trying to get away from so no point in me going there.
