Can someone explain this, I don’t get it.
Good about a year ago, the price of my gas and electricity went down but my standing charge went up enough that I ended up paying more. Then again, I’m sure they’ll just find another way to screw you.
Of course they will, this is definitely a step in the right direction, but I’m not fooling myself into thinking what ever tariff they conjure up is going to be substantially cheaper.
Energy provision should never be for-profit, it should offer what is a necessity for people at the markets unit prices plus any maintenance/development on top.
Would the ‘maintenance/development on top’ not be called profit?
When I say profit I mean money going to shareholders. The money made should be kept within the business (where possible) to fund its maintenance and development.
They will implement it in a way that makes 99% of prople worse off so no one takes it up and they can “prove” it’s not wanted.
