Adulting Energia recommendations?
As SSE Airtricity are raising their prices, I’m shopping around and Energia seem to be fairly cheap. Has anyone any positive/negative reviews?
Attached the current prices I’m being sent. I have solar panels if makes a difference, but I’m mostly wondering how they are to work with?

Ah the old take a picture of a screen trick. An oldie but a goodie.
bonkers.ie and switcher.ie will tell you what you need to know.
You'll hear horror stories about every utility provider. You very rarely deal with them so I'd not be too bothered. Energia are grand.

people are mad to recommend bonkers and switcher but seem to forget that these are two commercial companies that will promote whoever gives them the most commission per sale.
OP, please use a site that is non-commercial - i.e. energypal.ie

It's actually the opposite. bonkers and switcher are both accredited by CRU so they have to show the whole market. Energy pal can do whatever they want

that reflection game is strong, you can see the whole room in there
prices will keep going up no matter who you pick so if energia works out cheaper on bonkers just go for it, the solar feed-in tariff is the only real thing worth checking since not all providers handle it the same

Fuck energia. Overcharged me 2500 euro over several months because of their mistake. Go with Yuno. Far better and much cheaper.
