Rate rise could lead to bigger household energy bills
Research by uSwitch.com shows that the average energy bill with E.On (formerly Powergen) is set to rise from £913 to £1,063. The energy provider will raise prices from February the 8th, a trend that has seen all but one major energy supplier increase their prices in recent months. Bucking the trend Scottish & Southern energy have assured a price freeze until late March. Anne Robinson, director of consumer policy at uSwitch.com said:
“With savings of up to £325 to be made, now is the time for consumers to really start making competition work for them.”
