British Gas reduces energy bills for over a million pre-pay customers
More than a million British Gas customers have had their rates reduced after a so-called 'prepayment penalty' was removed. The change means pre-payment meter customers will pay the same for gas as those who pay by direct debit - they had been paying more.
The move to bring gas prices for prepayment customers in line with direct debit rates will lower bills for around 4.5 million households across the UK. But the change won't affect electricity-only prepay customers as they are currently charged slightly less than those on direct debit on average, according to MoneySavingExpert.
The energy giant says its prepayment customers will be well over £10 million "better off" over the next three months as a result of the move, with the average saving being £15 per household, reported the Mirror. British Gas has around 1.24million customers with prepayment meters - though around 158,000 of those only have electricity prepayment meters so won't benefit.
