There should be a law forcing energy companies to charge the best pricing they have on offer to all customers at all times, instead of the current nonsense of having to ring up the power company every year when the year's pricing deal "is expiring" to avoid being put on extortionately high "default" rates. Not only to save money, but also time, as I am sure I am not the only one who hates having to wade through which "deal" is supposedly the best each year on pain of being given a big bill if I don't want to be bothered.
Great idea, don't know how it would work in practice though.
And yeah, my email to my supplier this year was essentially "don't make me faux leave to another supplier again to get the good rate, just give it to me"
