The Cartel of Energy companies.
New laws will force energy companies to offer customers the lowest tariff |
We were sold the lie that "privatisation introduces competition which would improve services and drives down costs".
All that happened was that a few privately owned companies replaced one publicly owned company, and created a cartel of private companies, fixing the price between them. This latest piece of idiocy from government will ensure just one thing. The companies will be "forced" to ensure that customers are on the lowest possible tariff and the companies will respond by ensuring that there are only two tariffs. There is no guarantee that either will be the correct low charge. In any case, it has never been properly explained as to how there can be numerous tariffs for the supply of energy. Just another example of the energy cartel spreading confusion and ensuring customers pay the highest prices.
