Just announced profits of £750m for 2023.

Absolutely scandalous with thousands of people still not being able to pay their energy bills.

Fat cat shareholders just get fatter.

Well seeing as they all charge the same due to the price cap isn’t your argument with them all ???

The others haven't announced their profits yet have they so I can hardly slag them off just yet?

Rest assured I will do.

Not all profits will be from domestic customers and they are also the biggest company

The facts are that they have increased their profits 10 fold whilst we have all paid double for our energy. Anyone claiming the two are not linked is bananas. OFGEM gave them a blank cheque. Remind me again where OFGEM gets its execs?

The biggest scandal is the standing charge.

Indeed. Huge increase to fund zero increase in network costs, and to cover any company who goes bust. Prices go up, we pay, company takes profit. Company goes bust, we pay.

Just like the banks all over again
