ender4 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 New fixed rate deal out - EDF Energy - Essentials 1yr Mar 25 v6. It's 18% lower than the price cap. MSE says good to move to this if currently on the price cap rates with no penalty to move. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/utilities/are-there-any-cheap-fixed-energy-deals-currently-worth-it/#deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumstopdogs Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Looks like some new British Gas fixed tariffs are available. The Fixed Tariff 12M v3 is a £29 saving projected for me. This new tariff might be worth looking at if you're with British Gas @Genie There is also another one called Fixed Lighter 12M v2 that seems to have lower standing charges but higher cost per unit but projected not to save as much for me anyway but still £17. Might be worth considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth considering. Thanks again mate. I’ll jump on that 12m v3 as it’s another saving of £27 I notice they have also reduced the exit fees from £75 to £50 for moving to another supplier.

foreveryoung Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Noticed fuel creeping up again for hardly any reason. Around £1.55 a litre now, although a Shell by me which usually is average is £1.68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I read that there was actually a drop in oil price after Iran launched their missiles but it hasn’t stopped a little bit of piss taking by the petrol stations. The fuel in the pumps now will have been purchased months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

News from today further drops Quote Oil prices fell on Monday, dragged down by a renewed focus on market fundamentals as Israel and Iran played down the risks of an escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, after Israel’s apparently small strike on Iran. I think their was a pre-attack ”premium” but since then it has been downward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I've not been looking at unleaded prices for a while Proves then it's just petrol stations taking the piss then. I have seen £1.49, but mostly around £1.54 at supermarkets up to £1.68 for shell Essos. Was around £1.40 a couple of months back, oil has gone further down in price, but fuel costs have gone up. Diesel this is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
