Energy tariff ending soon, act very soon

At the end of August 2012 the following energy tariffs are effectively coming to an end.

  • nPower Price Protector
  • ScottishPower Online Energy Saver v14
  • ScottishPower Capped Price Energy September 2012
Energylinx are advising customers to take note of this as in both cases customers can potentially be moved automatically the the energy suppliers standard tariff with effect from 1 September.

If this was to occur npower customers would experience an overnight increase, averaged across the UK of 8.97%

Scottish Capped Price Energy September 2012 would see an average increase of 10.55%.

The largest impact however is those customers who has been lucky enough to have remained on Online Energy Saver v14 who will potentially experience a price increase of 24.48%.

It is more than likely that that both companies will attempt to immediately offer customers an alternative product but Energylinx would advise that no customer should even consider accepting without first checking what the market can offer as at the moment there are some fantastic energy deals to be had but you need to check the market specific for your home and not simply rely on an energy supplier defaulting or offering you an alternative product.
