Gas Prices



Since recently moving into my own place with my boyfriend i have taken on an awful amount of bills :(


We had set a realistic budget for each month and stuck to it perfectly until the gas bill came through.....we are currently in the process of switching from npower to e on and had the bill of what we had used during the 40 day period whilst with N Power and they charged us a very hefty sum of £150.43 which instantly i thought must have been a mistake.


So i rang the company up only to be told by some rude woman on the phone that if you use the gas you pay the price! So disgusted with her service i rang e on who i am due to be with shortly and explained the situation and they told me that with the units used they would have charged me no more than £85 for what we had used!


Now i understand that different people offer different prices, it is like the supermarkets constantly trying to compete with one another but how on earth can N Power condone charging me over £65 more than a different company for the same product?!


I would never ever reccommend N power as a supplier and am very pleased that i am with E on now :D

  1. this example is perfect to show bad behaviour how can a business expect someone to pay so much for six weeks even 85 is a lot considerin there not doing anything because the oils they are using that produce the gas are naturally found on earth which belongs to everyone. i luckily to am moving out but dont have to pay no gas just electric so hopefully that will be one less bill unless my electric prices look similiar to your first bill. im glad you are good enough to share the dangers of these businesses.
