Who are you with mate and is this a fixed deal that’s been altered?
 
The government have effectively approved a doubling of bills compared to this time last year. Europe just announced a windfall tax on producers but political dogma prevents that here.
Perhaps any freezing of costs should have started with reducing taxation of the energy. The Gov is collecting much more vat etc than it budgeted for.
 
Far from it. I’ve just worked hard all my life and if I can’t afford it I don’t have it. Always lived within my means
Voted Labour all my 34 years of voting
But don't agree with the money going straight into people's bank accounts. Too many people have there priorities wrong.
 
Just had email from Octopus. They do seem to be doing more than most to alleviate the problems.

'We’re reducing our standing charges a further 4% from the Government discounted level – I
wish it could be more, but in times like these it’s only right to direct as much help as possible to
those less fortunate. We’ve also stopped advertising on TV, bus stops, train stations, sports
arenas and online, and are redirecting all these funds to help customers who are struggling.'
