Lord only knows how people on low incomes are going to be able to afford it. How many lives will be lost because old people will be frightened to put their heating on?

But don't worry the government will sort it out for us....

Definitely 'Greeedy Bstards'. I would expect a minor increase, not 25%, that’s taking the urine. With their customers leaving in droves, I suppose they've got to recover their losses somewhere and what better place than their existing customers.


When my wife and I bought our bungalow about 6 years ago we set up 'Dual Fuel' with another supplier. Just after moving in, BG sent us several bills addressed to us which we ignored, then we received a 'Final Reminder' to pay £150. Both my wife and I telephoned them several times to explain that although we have a very similar surname to the previous occupant, we have only recently moved in and are with another supplier, unfortunately they didn't listen so we approached 'Energy watch' and I think 'Ofgas'. We provided documents to substantiate our case. After the regulators intervened BG quickly dropped their argument and offered us £20 for our troubles, to which they offered to 'give to one of our chosen charities' !!!

They are speculating or is the word panicking. Everyone is frightened that because of the Russian/Ukraine gas fiasco a couple of weeks ago that the price of gas will increase latter this year.

I think the definition of true greed is the oil industry
