The best deals are disappearing, so act now to nab a great rate

As predicted in my previous blog and also highlighted in Mark Adam’s weekend article, competitive tariffs are disappearing one by one to be replaced by ones up to 37% dearer. 

The anticipation within the industry is for prices to jump significantly due to a rise of over 40% in underlying gas prices since this time last year.

Right now it is still possible to grab very competitive fixed rates to protect yourself against the expected price rises this winter.
