Switching electric/gas providers (see first post for links)

Switch the account holder to your other half, you will get new customer rates.

I'm with electric ireland on the 24hr rate. I used to be on their day night plan. Losing my 28 percent discount and best they will offer is 18 percent.

Flogas 24hr is 23.44c standing charge rural 313.90

Electric ireland are offering me 27.93 with standing charge of 314

I'm getting an ev but the other two rates for Flogas is making a difference of 4 euro a week. I am better off with the 24hr with 8 on family and peak rate when the kids get in from school at that time and dinners.

Anyone recommend Flogas. Are they due an increase. I see electric irelanf haven't increased and not sure if they will now?

Farm is with bord gais. Only moved to them in August. Thinking of moving away from them now with the hike so interested in Flogas

Electric Ireland will increase prices, as will Airtricity sure as night follows day. That's how competition works in the Irish electricity market

As has been stated many times in this thread already, yes and yes

I've seen that floating around, very odd!

It is odd. I always thought you just had the 14 day cooling of period and outside of that you would have to pay an early termination charge if you broke the contract. It must be in the contract though otherwise they wouldn't state it. I'll see if I can get a screenshot of it.

how is bord gais electricity price going up 12-13% when oil prices are down about 10% this year?

can anyone make sense

Scroll down to the very bottom of the email. It's the part that most people don't bother reading.

Hi all, I was hurried into BGE last year by door to door sales person (admittedly I shouldve known better!)

So I switched from Electric Ireland to BGE around December, if I contact Electric Ireland looking to "re join" will I come as new customer or? Do I need to say I had account with them before altogether, or will that just confuse things? Any help welcome please

Switched to BG on Sept 3rd from Energia-cancelled today.I can't do another switch for 30 days(I think).So as I am now out of contract with Energia on the D/N tariff I assume I'm now on a standard rate,Can anyone please tell me what that rate is?

For existing BGE customers you can view your current and proposed charges here.

I had a quick glance through the T&C's and the only reference I can see regarding the 30 day period is point 2 ( c ) which states ….

2(c) You can cancel your Contract within 14 days from the date you agreed to this Contract if you signed up via a website ELECTRICITY FOR YOUR HOME 5 or over the phone or 30 days from the date you agreed to this Contract if you signed up via a doorstep sales agent under the Consumer Rights Act 2022 by using the cancellation form on our website at www.bordgaisenergy.ie/ cancellation-form or by contacting us in accordance with Condition 17 (“coolingoff period”).

Edit/ Point 5 c might cover it …

c) We are entitled to change the price charged once we have informed you either by the publication of an advertisement in any national daily newspaper or by sending notice of the change to you by post or email or to your Online Account. We will give you thirty (30) days notice in advance of any price change taking effect. Any such advertisement or notice will state the date from which the change is to become effective. Should we not hear from you within this period, by continuing to receive the supply of electricity you will be deemed to have given your express consent to accepting this change and that you are happy for the Contract to continue on the same terms and conditions, subject to the price change.

anyone try yuno they seem to be significantly cheaper on switcher app?

When did we get a 'right' to terminate contract due to a price change? Others charge a termination fee
