Centrica Share Discussion Threads

Perhaps Conn has not come out fighting because of this :

[jpjohn1] 01/11/2017 09:35

Where is this going !!

[hamhamham1] 01/11/2017 09:27

All I ask of the committee is that they don't issue more woolly heavy handed threats. This is a rediculous way to operate.

[careful] 01/11/2017 09:12

agressive regulation is crushing this and BT.
CNA expected to pay green subsidies and invest billions in infrastructure,
and then bear the cost themselves.

similarly BT have to invest billions in Fibre optic broadband and like a charity hand it over to competitors.

Theresa May is beginning to look out of her depth.
No knowledge of business, no knowledge of ordinary people.
Corbyn is a street fighter who was not part of the Oxford Union debating Society.
How genteel, but this tory gang are beginning to worry me.

my avge is just under 175p going to add to get it down to 173p

[susiebe] 01/11/2017 09:04

I would have thought price cap well and truly priced in by now.But no market wants to trash it even more.

[portside1] 01/11/2017 09:02

going to add some more in a few mins before the hearing on caps

[rathean] 01/11/2017 08:56

The long drawn out death rattle of Centrica shareholders me included. You'd think this lot would have been a rock solid income share, if they reduce the divi I am officially crying.In other news OPTI are edging north, good rns dyor

he should also say he will switch off power stations they own if they are not making money switch them off for a week in dec and see the uproar by the public when the lights go out

[hamhamham1] 01/11/2017 08:51

Market seems edgy in the run up to 10am. Let's hope that this committee give some direction on where the cap is going.

[portside1] 01/11/2017 08:50

I am waiting for CONN to announce NO MORE FORWARD INVESTMENT IN THE UK ENGERGY BUSINESS ,
WHY IS HE NOT FIGHTING IS CORNER FOR THE COMPANY ,

[portside1] 01/11/2017 08:47

my homes I look after have fixed with bg till aug 2019

[capeview] 01/11/2017 08:31

I'm with Octopus Energy. Not had any issues with them and there pricing for me is fixed until April 2018. I had one issue just the other day where my gas reading was listed as estimate and not customer. Emailed them, changed the bill and adjusted within a few hours.

Had no issues with the switch over or setup and I'm free to leave whenever I want with no fees attached.

So far they have been really good but time will tell in the next few years, but we need competition to give the big guys a kick up the back side.

[hamhamham1] 01/11/2017 08:23

BBC Parliament. Today at 10am. Live Energy Price Cap Committee. Worth a watch maybe

[portside1] 01/11/2017 08:17

yes I switched mine and my two daughters to bg I do all the donkey work as they are far to busy and the one lives 88 miles from me

[hippo] 01/11/2017 07:21

There is also a price to be paid for switching from any of the big providers, when you read the reviews of the small providers they are generally poor....switching issues, poor customer service and hiking tariffs at first opportunity, basically many horror stories.I review my own tariff every year, but currently ignore the small players for those reasons, maybe things will improve.

[hamhamham1] 01/11/2017 07:01

British gas comes out number one if you want a fixed price deal (plus dual fuel and direct debit)

[hamhamham1] 01/11/2017 06:33

I just did a uswitch search for dual fuel with direct debit and british gas came 2nd cheapest. Not bad, At least it shows the public that british gas are willing to fight for your business.

[hamhamham1] 01/11/2017 06:23

Moneysavingexpert emailed me about a new British gas deal. hxxps://www.moneysavingexpert.com/latesttip/
