on E.On increasing gas prices by 15 per cent and electricity prices by 9.7 per cent

Commenting on E.On increasing gas prices by 15 per cent and electricity prices by 9.7 per cent, effective from tomorrow, Scott Byrom, utilities manager at price comparison site moneysupermarket.com, said: "This move by E.On will have the greatest negative impact on customers in Eastern England, the East Midlands and most of North West England who will see any mortgage savings wiped out.

"E.On has 3.6 million customers there - the bulk of whom are on its Standard tariff.

The argument to change to an online Monthly Direct Debit tariff now is stronger than ever.

" Even before this move, E.On's Standard dual fuel tariff was averaging £171 more than British Gas Click Energy 4 - now the difference is even starker at £285.".
