Best D/N Tariffs

one big switch deal ends today.

Dare we imagine with EU announcement on gas cap today, and the wholesale price decreasing that rates might actually come down?

con747 · 21-10-2022 10:55PM

I suppose it depends on which multiverse we live in.

SD_DRACULA · 22-10-2022 02:40PM

What ever happened with these morons in charge and that 0-5% VAT rate on renewables that the EU approved?

poker--addict · 03-11-2022 10:32PM

All seems quiet on the price changing front the past 2-3 weeks? Did I miss anything? Have we peaked? 🙂

Went with energia EV rate, obviously not what it was months ago, but appears to be the cheapest night rate, and I should not hit the monthly caps. On the off chances prices fall back I suppose we can always pay the 50 quid to buy out, but I suppose for heavy night users competition for this plan might not change much.

What is the monthly cap again, its pretty high isn't it?

I've started using a lot of electric heaters to reduce oil consumption so I'm hitting 30-40kWh per day purchased, all on night rate.

SD_DRACULA · 04-11-2022 10:51AM

If you keep up this usage you might go over it, it's quite low actually, 1000 per month N and 1500 D

You want to be under 33.33kwh per day (2000/61)

DrPhilG · 04-11-2022 10:58AM

Bugger, thanks for that.

That said even if I did venture into the excess rate it would still be better than using an extra 5l of oil per day at €1.30 a litre.

I'll keep a close eye.

ELM327 · 04-11-2022 11:19AM

Yes I'm for sure going to be paying for some units at the excess rate. However, it's only like 15c and that only applies to units in excess of 2000.

poker--addict · 04-11-2022 09:02PM

I am hoping with a bit of solar feeding a battery that I shouldn’t enter the night time excess too often even with heat pump. As above, so be it if exceeded, it’s still cheaper than many company night rate

Time to renew this thread, coming out of the energia Ev tariff and it is the wild west out there.

Energia quoted me new d/n rates of 45c/22c and ofc F those rates but it seems to be the new normal 😰

What's the best d/n tariff at the moment (if they even exist anymore)?

Flogas BWG 'exclusive' offer but they aren't taking on any more on the phone apparently, but online sign-up is still there

Rural rates..

SD_DRACULA · 07-07-2023 09:29PM

Certainly better, not sure you can change in advance of contract end date can you? 8/08 is when the energia ones expires.

But probably best to just take the early exit fee and get it asap.

Is it fixed for the year?

What's their FIT per unit?

Fixed for 1yr, CEG is 24c afaik.. been with them 3yrs and found them very stable and efficient so not happy to leave but not leaving this offer on the table esp. if they're pulling it. if prices drop in a few months I'll reassess again

poker--addict · 07-07-2023 10:04PM

Hardly worth paying a breaking fee so close to the end when on balance prices should come down or remain the same.

who knows when Flogas will drop this offer and that nice CEG rate, who knows what'll happen to prices.. but one thing is certain, this offer exists 🤔

I wonder is the CEG fixed? 😂

Fair point. The day rate on the day/night is very favourable compared to what most of us are stuck in at. A cold month would see the 50e break fee back a few times!

SD_DRACULA · 08-07-2023 07:07PM

Hope FG don't have the stupidest FIT payment in history, once a year like BG, chancers.

Nelbert · 08-07-2023 07:37PM

That flogas offer is better than the previous one I was looking at from them a few days ago. Contract up next week and while this would slightly increase my day rate it's the first time I've seen a night rate below my current rate (I missed out on the energia offers last year).
