According to BG, in order to get “cheap rate” from BG I have to have a smart meter fitted and sign up for the cheap rate. Problems with that are: 1. Mt previous experience with BG have been bloody disastrous. Their fitters tried to con me into a boiler replacement and then maliciously broke the boiler, causing extensive floods and forcing me to get new boiler. 2. From media reports, smart meters spend a lot of their time broke. 3. My EV mileage is so low that if I signed up to cheap rate for my EV, then my “standard rate” price gets hiked by about 5p perKWh and my overall power bill would cost me much more than not signing up. So I’m going to continue not getting cheap rate. Safer that way – I am not letting a BG fitter or any BG smart tech into my house.
Peak Save Sunday gives you 5 hours of half price electricity every Sunday. It’s doesn’t change your standard tariff, we pay 23p per KWh all the time and get it for 11.5p on a Sunday and during the Green Flex days, you can benefit from it with any of BG’s tariffs. It’s perfect for EV owners who don’t do enough miles to benefit from a night tariff. If you are already with BG it’s a no brainer.
