ESB or Bord Gais

Bigcheeze · 2012-04-15 18:58:59

Just about to move house and wondering which is cheaper for Gas and electricity. I suspect it's Bord Gais as ESB don't publish their rates on their website. Can anyone confirm which is better value ?

Just be careful of offers that seem cheap with low unit rates but that have a high standing charge.

Thanks. it kind of over-complicates it when a comparison chart would do fine.

Ime if you ring them up they will match each others prices, so it's much of a muchness. Beware of coming out of sweetener deals, prices going up and having to play them off against each other again.
