Remove the daily standing charge for Gas and Electricity from all suppliers.
The standing daily charges are expensive and unfair, this should be abolished. Daily standing charge even if you use no energy at all. As of July 2023, customers in the UK will be paying an average standing charge fee of around 53p per day for electricity and 29p per day for gas.
Currently with the cost of living crisis, the standing daily charges are expensive, this should be limited to a set % of a tariff.
While people can reduce your energy use to try and save money, you will have to pay your daily standing charge even if you use no energy at all. As of July 2023, customers in the UK will be paying an average standing charge fee of around 53p per day for electricity and 29p per day for gas.
