PS. British Gas might be offering a 5% reduction to their customers but you'd be better off switching.

Thanks to a utilities price war and the new 17 day faster switching initiative, now is a great time to switch provider - in fact you'd be able to move to a cheaper tariff before British Gas' reduction even comes into effect if you do it now.
