Students say 'unlimited' energy costing £2k more
Reading Students' Union questions the value of "unlimited" energy contracts for students, stating they pay an average of £2,200 more per household. Research reveals students might unknowingly sign up for costly contracts and has prompted the launch of an Energy Advice Service. Providers defend their unlimited packages, emphasizing transparency and the convenience of fixed costs. Students are urged to research energy deals and make informed choices to avoid unnecessary expenses.
