Business Gas Confusion

Since deregulation of the gas and electricity supply to domestic and non-domestic users  in the UK, many business gas suppliers have sprung up. These suppliers were supposed to compete, bringing down the cost of business gas. In reality, the cost of gas depends on many things and deregulation has brought confusion for business owners who are not sure if they are getting the best price.

There are no published rates for business gas by post code so while businesses are being bombarded by offers for cheaper business gas, the business owner really has no way of knowing who is offering the lowest rates without getting quotes from every supplier.

There are many of different tariffs for business gas customers which make choosing a supplier with the lowest prices even more confusing. One supplier may have a lower rate per unit of gas but another may offer a discount for direct debit payments that makes their cost for business gas lower in the end. To make things even more confusing, business gas suppliers have a strategy of offering new customers low prices so at the end of a contract, business owner must start the whole process of looking for the lowest rates again. If they don’t, their contract will roll over, often at higher rates. It’s enough to confuse anyone, especially business owners who are dealing with setting up their business gas supply for the first time.
