I wish there was a law making it mandatory for electricity companies to be more transparent with their pricing schedules.
It's damn annoying. I've been trying to get pricing out of Pulse Energy but the person on the phone wouldn't do it until she'd seen a bill from my current provider - how about they just be bold and say a price?? The other annoying thing some power companies do is quote ex-GST prices by default.
Yes, you need to provide your current rates.
Then Pulse will email you a better rate.
Then you call your company for a better rate, which they may or not do.
Then Pulse will beat it and offer a credit on the account to sign for 12 months.
Then your current company will call you and may offer an even better rate.
If most companies are giving ex-gst rate, than its easy to compare, and when companies offer incl gst rate, ensure they give you excl gst rate.
Or sign up to a two year contract for a 50c per litre discount.
Considering companies offered me $150 for signing up with them for 12 months and a much lower rate than Contact (Contact said they couldn't beat my current rate), I suspect the 30c off is just a gimmick.
Do the math, the Contact 30c off fuel deal has KwH rates at double the standard rates and if you already get about 10 -12 c off fuel using smartfuel or a fuel card then you'd need to be using a lot of fuel to break even.
Which supplier do you guys use? I find it hard to comprehend the rates and using powerswitch for instance to compare but then getting charged more than what they work out…
How is it possible that Flick offers 1.5cents per kwh??
Do they?
Right now have 15.8c per unit
Anyone here uses Flick?
That's their commission. Its the spot rate plus either amount.
@Shaw: are you able to elaborate that Shaw?
Explains it here https://www.flickelectric.co.nz/pricing
Flick's totally different from other companies because we pass through all of the wholesale costs of getting electricity to your place without any mark-up, then charge you a separate fee to look after you as your retailer.
The 1.5c is the "separate fee" they charge on top of the rate, which is variable.
@bigbosssnake: You play the following on flick:
- The variable spot price of electricity (what electricity actually costs) - normally 10-17c/unit.
- Flicks Fees (what is in that picture of yours above)
- GST
Is the 30c off for the life of the plan or until the 30th June 2018? 30c is ~$15 worth of fuel, so it would be quite a chunk for a bill around $100.
