    I think it’s more to protect themselves from the inevitable backlash when people get massive bills and then complain to the government or get on the news saying how bad the utility companies are raping them.
    You are correct.

    This thread makes me super thankful that I locked in with Atco when they had the $3/$0.03 combo deal a few years back. Last year of the deal currently, but Id venture to say it worked out in my favor.

    True, but for my usage the savings on electricity was a lot more than the expense of gas.

    5-6 cents for me. That's like $10/mth less.

    Interesting to hear. Always thought it was the opposite for most.

    Same. Grow setup + mining rig + a/c + original furnaces with inefficient blower fan running 24/7 all summer = lots of kWh per month.

    The $3 had all the fees included. My floating rate with fees was around 3.20 to 3.50 so the $3 was a savings.

    It has been a great deal but it ends at Christmas

    Not all fees, but it included the per GJ transaction fee. Like Enmax's floating rate is X + 99c per GJ.

    Side note: Nine energy providers in the UK have now declared bankruptcy.

    Not the big ones, but pretty much all the small ones got slaughtered on the one week price spike (just like Texas). Not too sure who are the big players in the UK.

    Atco has that as well... or did at the time i signed the contract... but you are correct that fee... the atco 3/3/3 deal got rid of the variable fees for a flat 3

    nothing gets rid of the fixed infrastructure fee or what ever they are called etc... cause that is how the companies pay for the build out of service and their real profit margin.

    there is very little profit in the product they sell.

    So Atco just sent our their renewal offer for the 3/3 deal.

    3 yr deal
    $0.599/Kwh
    $3.99/GJ
    +$6.99/service/month

    How does that compare to Enmax?

    ENMAX is more, so if one is with ENMAX right now, depending on the deal you got for electricity, not worth to switch over $0.10 savings on gas. I'm $0.599/kWh and $4.09/GJ with ENMAX.
    And the other benefit with ATCO might be the 15 days notice to switch vs. 30 days with ENMAX.

    I assume all the fixed costs between ATCO and ENMAX are the same, which is the bulk of the costs anyways. I am just uncertain about the admin charge; I think ATCO is higher for admin charges.

    So in a nutshell, if you got a renewed offer with ATCO, stick with 'em. I wonder if ATCO will offer this to new customers too..

    ATCO seems better in all aspects, the 70 cents is a fair chunk of savings. And 20 cents per service per month service fee savings with ATCO.
