Until someone brave enough in power is prepared to take on these insidious companies and put the public first for once but then again politicians will think about themselves before they ever get around to helping the consumer.

One thing I've noticed is energy companies now charge an "early termination fee" if you want to switch away to another company to soon.

Wish I lived nearer the cost, then I'd stick up a vertical turbine on the roof and use the power from that.

I'm sure I'm on 12 month contracts for the discount deals I've got with EDF and British gas.
