What do you intend to do when your fixed energy contact ends? Will you fix or not? I know mine will go up a lot as I had fixed it before any of the recent big increases but I don't think I will be fixing again for a while. Does anyone also know how they calculate the new direct debits. Mine have suggested a far too high one. I used last year's figures, added 53% as that was the recent big increase and I believe that should be good enough for now till the October increase again. What do you think?

I think we should over throw the government, and create a new socialist state where transport, utilities, education, healthcare, policing and the fire service are all owned and ran by the state. But that's just me.

My company went bust last year. For my new variable one I am not increasing my direct debit with Winter in mind, i.e. I only pay what I use (get billed monthly), because I don't know who I'm going to fix with yet. For me that is fine as it will be a bigger cost towards Winter either way and I am planning for it.

Not yet seen a fix worth switching to but I keep looking and waiting. It's all a gamble.

I just hope they are sensible with the direct debit as their quote is obscene. Nearly three times as before.

I was hoping I get some advise on this from those who may have had their dd increased excessively. I am planning to challenge them. My spent last year was less than £100 pm ( fixed to pre increase prices) and they want to raise my dd to £360 pm which I think it's unreasonable. Anyone had similar experience
