Refusal to pay energy bills

[Marlo]

Is this a viable option? If enough people simply said we are not going to pay would this force a retreat from the energy companies. The cost is a complete runaway train that is only going to get worse over the next 6 months.



That sums it up, 7 billion in profit. Between April and June alone, one company. This is storm the Bastille let them eat cake stuff.

So would it work, would a mass refusal to pay the gigantic bills be possible?

No it wouldn't work.

They advertise their pricing before you use the product.
If you don't want to pay the price then don't use the product.
If you use it and then don't pay then it's stealing.

Truth is, with all the problems in services, if many did this then we wouldnt have the capacity to cope with the legal ramifications. Then, when you factor in all those that rent and who owns the responsibility to pay, it turns into a nightmare.

I’ve never paid for a tv license, just stop paying and ignore the letters job done

Cancelling your direct debit is not refusing to pay, it is just refusing to pay in advance. If enough people do it, all beginning on the same day, it will send a very strong signal.

The coming months will be a case of simply can’t pay rather than won’t.

I think a fair few season tickets direct debits will be getting cancelled unfortunately
The fucking whole thing is sickening

What is the reasoning to not let these ridiculous profits have a windfall tax ?

Good for you not making Lineker and all the others with cushy jobs richer.
