The company was unsound and was paying the family and relatives owner’s other companies, possibly illegally. 27yr old owner has done a bunk.

Rather epic fail so far. All of which is moot given the present situation, but as with other 'regulators' they really are proving to be as effective as a chocolate teapot.
“Avro Energy is ceasing to trade. Ofgem, the energy regulator, is appointing a new supplier for its customers.
Customers need not worry, their supplies are secure and domestic credit balances are protected.
Ofgem’s advice is not to switch, but to wait until they appoint a new supplier for you. This will help make sure that the process of handing customers over to a new supplier, and honouring domestic customers’ credit balances, is as hassle free as possible for customers. Support and advice is available on the Ofgem website for both domestic customers and non-domestic customers. Alternatively, if customers need additional support, they can call Citizens Advice on 0808 223 1133 or email them via their webform. Advice will also be shared on Ofgem’s twitter @ofgem and facebook channels.”

2. In order to generate revenue. Energy supply is profitable.
NB - other advanced Western economies, *including the USA*, operate their energy supplies largely by publicly-owned companies. This sort of direct-to-consumer privatisation is not only ludicrous, it's unique to the UK.

They should renationalise it, just so the pigs can sell it off again later and make more money at our expense. The amount of waste is fuckin obscene in all areas, everyone has a dig at the NHS and it is absolutely wasteful. They are certainly far from the only ones, and we just have to accept it until we get to the ballot box again. It's actually not even funny any more how inept they all are. Nor how much money we spend allowing them to fritter it away on shite.
Ludicrous, absolutely ludicrous
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes...
But you only heat the whole house when everyone is in. You just heat the one room you work in during working hours.
Now it seems we can't survive without every room in the house being heated. Fact is we need to stop being so entitled and need to stop burning gas so I don't mind it going up.
No one needs a monthly price plan, just use what you use a quarter and then pay the bill. If the bill offends you then use less.
Also it's rare to get any really savage winters these days. At least I remember them being colder with more ice about.
My dad used to suck an Extra Strong mint and breathe on us to keep us warm.
