British Gas

[DBedford]

Anyone here still will British Gas, and if so why please?

I'm asking as I'm finding it increasingly difficult to justify staying with them.
Having had their HIVE EV charger installed (a nightmare) and their EV peak tariff being 8p/Kwh more Octopus Go,
It's hard to justify staying. I am aware if I had a difference changer I could sign up to Intelligent Octopus, but I don't .
Cheers, and boy to I need a drink or three!

Like many others no doubt, I having paid for energy for over forty years now and i still like to find a good priced deal.
I have been with British Gas once in that forty years, for only a short 12 month contract.
I guess that pretty much sums it up then really !.
They are expensive, period.

My late Mother-in-law was with British Gas and I'm an Executor for her estate. I won't go into the ghastly details of BG changing established meter readings and refusing to understand the problem before handing the bills over to their solicitors.
Steer clear if you can, Octopus customer services are much better.

You might not be able to go onto Intelligent Octopus, but there is still Octopus Go so long as your shiny new meters are really smart.

I confirmed with Octopus a few days ago, my new BG smart meters will work if I switch.

I'm with Octopus and have Go. It just works. They are not perfect (growing pains) but miles better than anyone else I have been with.
