Didn’t know British Gas were in banking.So that's record profits for Energy and Banking, ever get the feeling we are being conned?
I dont see British Gas handing out tenners to the poorest energy users.Thing is the regulator sets the price cap so they are to blame. The current level includes a premium that allows suppliers to recoup some of last year's losses in order to prevent a potential new wave of supplier failures.

French govt originally limited its bill rises to 4% which just meant the government paid the tens of billions of losses (where do they get their money again? People will pay one way or another. Think there's been some sort of riots taking place there over the last 6 months about worsening conditions....)
The bill shield was 4% Feb to Jan, then it was upped for 15% to July and now upped 10%, this cap is due to expire in 2024 and so far cost then 110bn euros on top of the losses a caused by EDD's ongoing nuclear issues
They've still done well to protect people gradually but I see people sharing this 4% nonsense all the time
"according to the government, with electricity prices customers of EDF’s regulated electricity tariffs having risen by an average of 31% since the end of 2021."
Meanwhile our bills are forecast to go down, how old are those images?
What's that got to do with EDF putting prices up in France 30% and rising when your image said 4%?You might find the following useful - bearing in mind that profits have soured since these figures were published:
