Uswitch comments on E.ON residential standard energy price freeze

Commenting on today’s announcement from E.ON that it will freeze standard residential energy prices until at least April 2017, Claire Osborne, Uswitch.com energy expert, says: “Standard variable tariff price freezes may look good on paper, but in reality could lull consumers into a false sense of security. The fact remains that consumers on standard deals could be overpaying for their energy by an eye-watering £200 a year. These customers should switch to a competitive fixed rate tariff, which also gives protection for longer against any future price rises.”
