I switched to Bulb a while ago as I'd heard a lot of good things about Bulb in the run up to switching
I'd been with SSE for ages and was happy with them.
However, despite knowing I could save money on my bills, I was reluctant to change and end up with an inept company and all the grief that entails.
What finally pushed me over to switching was SSE trying to threaten me with a "Smart" meter using the "under government legislation, we can inspect your meter and replace if necessary".
My existing meter is fine and was new in the early noughties and I know new meters are optional.
So to me this meant they'd bull they way into swapping out the meter to get their kick back, and I'd be left with another "just a meter" as we have poor mobile signal (we use WiFi Calling) and even SMETS2 are not fully compatible with all providers nor problem-free.
We are conscious of our energy usage and minimise where possible as I believe this is the most beneficial to the planet.
