Utilities: Gas, Electricity & Telephones

Deregulation of the electricity market throughout the UK was complete in May 1999. All households may now  choose which company supplies their gas, electricity and telephone services.

COMPETITION has lead to lower prices and some energy companies now offer new services like telecoms or financial services. Moreover,  like banks, some utilities provide access  to customer accounts on the internet and also bill payment facilities.
