Author Topic: New Energy Price Cap. How will it affect your punting?  (Read 1560 times)

Offline FiveKnuckles

As per title, the new energy price cap comes into effect tomorrow and some household will see a 50%+ rise in utilities.

Punters:  How will this affect your punting?  Will you be cutting back, going lower quality or no impact?

SP:  Will you be holding rates steady for the time being?

Personally will reduce the number of punts per month and more fiveknuckle shuffles  ;)

*must have plenty of WGs lurking so let them know our mood  :cool:

It doesn't affect me my main problem is finding a decent SP.
Although it will probably diminish the available pool as it's a handy excuse to ramp up prices.

Either a reduction in punts, or a reduction in time spent at each punt, or both  :hi:

More luck than judgement, I had the pox of peoples energy, gave them the pox and they waived exit fees, got a low 2 year deal and a refund from peoples energy just before they went bang.

Unless my new company goes bust I am all right for the time being, and use very little, living alone in a warm insulated house, so no big impact thankfully. I am lucky too in that I can get extra work if needs be, and restart the parts business I let go quiet during the pandemic, I have more stock than I could sell.

I really feel for those on pay as you go though, they are going to suffer the most and often are the poorest in society. Help needs to be targeted, not random.
Banned reason: Undesirable, previously banned, still attacking members, discussing UKP with SP, toxic personality, it’s a no from me!,

What I mean is, I will probably reduce the majority of my punts down from 1 hour per session, to 30 minutes.  :hi:

FFs, there's a 4 page thread on prices going up due to cost of living rising. - https://www.ukpunting.com/index.php?topic=335311.0

Failing that there's 9 pages on energy companies.   https://www.ukpunting.com/index.php?topic=322495.0

Wrong site to be asking SPs on, there's only about 3 who post.
