Petition Action

Ban the use of prepayment meters for energy provision.

Petition Details

Currently energy providers dishonestly pretend that poorer customers disconnect from their energy supply voluntarily, they call this "voluntary disconnection", however this is a lie, Nobody ever does such voluntarily it is forced on prepayment customers by the energy providers.

Additional Information

With the ridiculous & unobtainable amounts of money energy providers charge for prepayment use, it's is simply a matter of time before somebody dies in the cold because of so called "voluntary disconnection", it's both dangerous & unsafe to millions & not fair on anyone to pay so much for energy at rates like £10 per day gas & £10 per day electric, the prices are out of control so we need to send a loud message to these energy companies, banning prepayment meters would force them to change.
