Understanding new energy rates
I was surprised to find that my replacement energy supplier's new rates are so complicated.
They haven't just raised the rates at which they charge per kilowatt hour for electricity and for gas but have also changed the standing charge for each of them - in very different ways.
That makes their charges very hard to compare with the capped rate, which isn't (as I recall) expressed in that way. Meanwhile, the MoneySavingExpert website has (unsurprisingly) crashed as people try to understand how their bills are changing and if they can do anything to minimise the effect.
Does anyone here have a supplier other than Shell Energy which has notified them of changes to standing charges as well as to rates per kWh, so that we can compare what different suppliers are doing?
