Mines due for renewal in may . Do I hold on and hope Russian don’t invade? Probables is if they do invade surely a lot of electric company’s will pull there fixed deals anyways as they can’t control that?

I can see a lot of people bypassing their meters if this carries on.

I've been looking hard at my 3 x Business supplies and 1 x domestic to see if they can be re-juggled to the cheaper source of power. I am on 2yr fixed contracts currently and switching to a new supplier does not look to be the thing to do at all ! :-o

Sorry, but Nope.
much as I would like , being a generator I think they will settle back, but only after a settlement in the Ukraine. If Vlad does march in two things could happen,v firstly the Ukrainians may well , in fact I would think virtually certainly blow the interconnection through the country. This will cause am massive spike in energy prices right across much of the Eastern and probably Western Europe too.
Vlad will be desperate to be seen to ease the situation and I would guess will move heaven and earth to repair links and send cheap power.
It is of course the gas price which is driving our electricity prices
 
Well I don’t think I’ll take that offer!!
