My Heads Buzzing
« on: November 30, 2014, 05:08:50 PM »
Just been trolling through the Energy Savings Sites.
What a headache - KWH 's, Annuual  projection Costs  :-?

All gobble-de-gook to me, it really isn't for old women  :(

Anyway I did the change over pretty easy enough, saved over £450 a year ( I see a mini cruise looming  ;) )  but do others get boz-eyed with it all - or just me !!!

I've never heard of them either. We're with Eon for both gas and lecky.

Thanks for this post Pam.  I'll be checking them out.  The name seems to come up as OVO though  :)

Energy Saving? Thank goodness you know who doesn't post here anymore - you would half a dozen A4 sheets worth of replies... LOL

I think the place to go is Money Saving Expert - http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/
I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

I'm impressed with Ovo, monthly payments went down considerably and well in credit (which they actually pay interest on)

Might check them out next year. Our current contract with Eon doesn't finish till about July.

We have had Scottish Power phoning.
They phoned before I went into hospital a couple of times and hubby took the calls.
I said I would speak with them on a given date but then was in hospital so that didn't happen.
They've called again today, pushing their 'low standing charge rate'
Explaining what I had done yesterday I asked for them to email me their figures and I would look at them during the 14 day cooling period.
Only they couldn't do that from their call centre, so I sent her packing and said I would look at them when the next change came. Not prepared to talk figures over the phone, I like to read and digest.
I believe they are owned by someone from Spain?
Anyone know who owns OVO?

If you google OVO and look under Wilkipedia it gives you all the background to the company.

Nice find Fly, I can feel a change coming on.

Interesting read Fly.

I will mention though that for anyone eligible for the warm homes discount that OVO don't as yet take part in the scheme.
