WebSaver 6

Combine this online gas tariff with WebSaver 6 electricity and you’ll be able to enjoy the biggest discount possible from British Gas. Read our full overview.

Savings:

  • Minimum 6% discount against British Gas Standard tariff rates until 1st May 2011*

    • You could save minimum 6% discount against British Gas Standard tariff ratesfrom your typical yearly gas bill by switching your gas to the WebSaver 6 tariff, paperless billing is as standard and the tariff is available to new and existing British Gas customers.

    By taking your own meter readings and managing your own account, helps you rule out the chance of being overcharged. You will also be a little bit greener with paperless billing.

    Don't forget

    If you’re not confident online or prefer more traditional billing methods then the self-management system associated with WebSaver 6 (taking meter readings, paying bills online) may not be for you. This tariff is only available for those with credit meters, ruling out prepayment customers.

    It is also important to note that there is a cancellation fee of £30 per fuel if you decide to switch to another tariff on or before 1st August 2010.

    Is it right for me?

    WebSaver 6 potentially offers the largest saving in discounts, especially if you opt for a dual fuel package, so if you’re prepared to take meter readings and want to save money, this deal is for you.

    Standard Gas

    The standard gas tariff is available to new and existing customers, and open to customers with credit and prepayment meters.

    Discounts:

    • For direct debit payments: £35 off
    • Total saving: £35

    You could save up to £35 on your typical yearly gas bill.

    The standard tariff comes with no cancellation fees or tie-ins (allowing you the flexibility of switching again without incurring costs), and discounts are on offer for customers that show loyalty and opt for a dual fuel deal.

    Don't forget

    Paying by direct debit and bundling a gas and electricity package may not suit everyone. WebSaver 6 is a more economical option if you can handle managing your own online account.

    Is it right for me?

    This could be the best tariff for you if the online aspect of WebSaver 6 doesn’t appeal. However if you want to save the maximum amount consider managing your account online as the discount available are far greater.
