Not heard owt so have logged into my account just now and it has now appeared as an additional credit to add to my credit balance. This has only appeared in the last 7 days because i logged in the 8th as my bill was overdue

SO OVO are treating it as a nice little extra loan to them now that they pushed me into upping my direct debit further last month. :sad:

I think the Government are paying the money over to the energy companies each month for six months and the energy companies are passing it to customers as they get it. Why would the Government pay all that money up front and have to pay interest on the money from day one?

I'm very happy with my £66.

Especially as my tariff is fixed until August next year.

Hopefully by then Russia will have a new leader.

I think most experts are reckoning on 2 years for prices to come down and now our guaranteed fix is only till April so expect bills to double when your fix finishes

And I think Putin would have been shot by now if it was ever going to happen he is just too powerful. I think when push comes to shove we are going to have to grovel before him and give him loads of concessions to end the current crisis

Every month there are stories in the local press of businesses that have gone belly up because they can't afford their energy bill latest locally is a Gym that's been going 20 plus years. We cannot afford to buy LNG at massively inflated prices

The price of natural gas has fallen by 25% this month so far.

grant £66/month bill £50/month so £16 excess credit x 6 = no leccy to pay for 8 months

But greedy companies still will be ripping us off with the support of this government and have stated prices to consumers are not going to be reduced.
The day of a revolution is not far off now.

I believe that the predictions being used for gas prices now suggest that by April there will be a lower price cap thus no need for the support.

Nah I would have thought TT would have gargled himself to death by now but our Heathcote has always been imbued with the spirit of the Jarrow marchers :roll:
