VIP Electricity Rates

Comments

  • I have a few mates who work at AGL if you really that keen.

    I checked the rates for Victoria. It is actually cheaper to go with Tango.

    With AGL what gets you is peak is from 7am - 11pm M - F then rest is offpeak.

    Tango is peak from 3pm - 9pm 27.9c incl GST, rest of the time it is 18.4c.

    • Assuming OP is on an off-peak tariff.

      • -1

        Then you need to assume that you get a lot more off peak with Tango therefore go Tango rather than AGL.

    • Can you provide the AGL code please?

      Citipower (Vic), single rate + controlled load (hot water)
      AGL VIP is 25% off default offer + Flybuys points + AGL Rewards + Android app
      Tango Home Select is 16% off default offer

    • Can I please get a promo code (starting with A) if possible?

  • I noticed a lot of vendors are upping the price drastically since 1 July in VIC

    Damn it. Looks like I am trapped when my contract expires.

    • Or you can go Powerclub and access wholesale rates.

      I only average 5Kwh a day. Put the reverse cycle on a little and get 8Kwh on cold days. So might not make much sense for me.

      • Will check them but so far, Tango/Globird/EA are all massively expensive for AUSNET going by their web price.

        As a comparison, I now have 29c and 14c Peak and OffPeak. The cheapest of all these 3 companies above are 34c 21c Peak OffPeak

        AND they don't lock in the Supply Costs now, only Rates and not all are offering it (EA for example doesn't).

        This VDO thingy is actually worse off for me.

        • Pretty sure anyone who previously shopped around for the best deal are worse off.

    • are you sure you are contracted? nearly all, if not all, are not locked in - they will be 'benefit periods' where you get your rates, discounts etc for, but not contracted in to stay

      • I think they mean when their contract is up they're going to be stuck paying higher rates, no matter who they go with.

  • +4

    Diji1 should be able to offer some information about the electricity market.

  • even without those special offers, AGL is ranked #1 in powercor area, and #2 in Ausnet area (by only $6) so it's worth taking them up anyway for their app & 24x7 service. source - canstarblue
