Today we’re launching Face To Face – a new campaign with @uniteeconomy calling on the Scottish Government and local authorities to keep debt advice local. The cost of living crisis has not gone away & neither has the need for increased support for vital frontline services!
Scottish Power forcibly installed 24,300 prepayment meters in 2022, more than any other company, so it’s no surprise Ofgem have given them the green light to resume forced instillation & disconnection by the back door. Thoroughly grim. theguardian.com/business/2024/…
Wonder how many folk this will kill? Honestly, what the fuck is the point of a price cap when affordability is clearly ignored?
From 1 January 2024 Price Cap average direct debit unit rates for energy ELECTRICITY Unit rate: 28.62p per kWh Standing charge: 53.35p per day GAS Unit rate: 7.42p per kWh Standing charge: 29.60p per day For more ⬇️ ow.ly/KaOz50QaBxI
What makes a 75-year-old more vulnerable than a 74-year-old? The forced installation of prepayment meters must be banned outright. mirror.co.uk/money/ofgem-ex…
📉Today @Ofgem announced a drop in the #energy price cap from £2074 to £1923 a year. 💰Yet just a few weeks ago @BritishGas announced a 900% increase in 6-monthly #profits to nearly £1bn. 👎More weak regulation, letting #profiteers rob from our pockets. #TakeThePowerBack
"Energy UK has criticised Ofgem for not yet introducing a compensation mechanism for suppliers to recover debt accumulated from the ban on forced prepayment meter installations." The last thing the energy companies need is compensation! 🤯 tinyurl.com/mu8knvah
The solution is clear: Public ownership. Our response to Centrica’s soaring profits in the @heraldscotland via @GabyMcKay ➡️heraldscotland.com/news/23682751.…
Centrica’s profits have rocketed by almost 900%. This is your reminder that British Gas used to be ours. Now we pay for their profits. It could be different. We could own our energy system. ft.com/content/07175b…
In today’s @heraldscotland: people being threatened with the forced installation of pre-payment energy meters face inconsistent advice if they turn to the courts for help heraldscotland.com/news/23662698.…
We’ve been building this case since the start of the year. Good to get this story out. The Courts are throwing vulnerable Scots to the wolves with inconsistent advice that enables exploitation by energy providers. tinyurl.com/2v78ftpf
It's July now but it'll be winter soon enough. People across Scotland can't be left to fight predatory energy giants with unclear and inconsistent court advice.
NEW: Today’s @heraldscotland reveals that Scotland’s courts are giving unclear, inconsistent advice to those threatened by their energy provider. Our campaign found the courts to have abandoned vulnerable Scots, all while the utility companies rake it in. tinyurl.com/2v78ftpf
The courts are throwing vulnerable Scots to the wolves. We need to prepayment meters now. heraldscotland.com/news/23662698.…
End Prepayment meters.
