British Gas today, 26th April 2007, announced a further cut to its standard electricity and gas rates for domestic customers with immediate effect. This follows Telecom Plus, another gas and electricity supplier who announced price cuts across their tariffs yesterday. British gas has announced a headline grabbing reduction of 6 per cent on electricity prices and gas prices by 3 per cent, this applies to their standard tariffs for customers paying by monthly direct debit. Together with the decrease announced earlier in the year this second round of price cuts for British Gas customers reduces the average annual dual fuel bill by £207. This takes average prices down to £913. As a dual fuel supplier British Gas Click Energy 2 is one of the most competitive prices across the UK. Catalyst would encourage all customers to compare their energy prices regularly and in particular those customers paying by quarterly bill or on a standard tariff who will be effectively throwing away money by not switching supplier.
