Any significance in the RNS announcement of schroder holding 11 % or is this just an update similar to that issued by cevian as regards their holding in Aviva being announced as if anew at just over 5% whereas it had previously been stated as a holding of 4.95% back on the 8 June
I don t know what to believe but sold out of Centrica few days ago and put it all into Lloyds as fed up with inertia
Will be well gutted but not willing to take a chance again cost me big time

Friday 20 August 2021


Centrica will transfer more than seven million domestic and small business energy supply customers to a new billing platform.

The move follows a partnership with the software firm ENSEK and its ‘Ignition’ platform that promises to enhance customer service.

Customers will be able to manage their accounts regarding their energy consumption and bills without needing to speak to anyone.

Centrica said that it has already tried the platform with British Gas Evolve and now plans to replicate this across its entire UK energy supply business.

Chris O’ Shea, Group Chief Executive at Centrica, said: “We are the UK’s largest supplier of zero carbon electricity and our partnership with ENSEK is another great example of how we are using the right technology to deliver a more affordable, sustainable and simpler experience for our customers.”

Jon Slade, Chief Executive Officer of ENSEK, said: “Continuous innovation is at the core of ENSEK’s strategy, as we look to enable digital transformation in the energy sector and accelerate the energy transition.”
