Other Added - Business Electricity Customers Penalised For Being Loyal
Chinese calligraphy is one of the oldest art forms that still practiced to this day. Although it still serves its more practical application—written communication—calligraphy is appreciated by the rest of the world as something more like abstract art, conveying more than just arbitrary words but expressions of creativity and of the human spirit.

Customer loyalty counts for nothing.
Customers should be able to trust their business electricity supplier to give them the same price as they offer new customers.

Everybody talks about innovation but not many firms can “walk the talk” and turn a creative idea into something of value. According to the Harvard Business Review only 1 in 10 new product introductions succeed in the market.But what makes the difference between success and failure? If we knew the answer we could use innovation to drive faster gro
The biggest culprits were banks, insurance companies, telecoms and essential utilities. They all offered exceptional introductory rates in the hope that customers, usually tied in with direct debit accounts, and would fail to notice the increases when it came to renewal. And here we had the inception of a new market model which is now today’s norm.
The more loyal you became the more you pay.
But for those who dared to question the renewal rates or God forbid, shopped around, there were the infamous ‘save tools’. Suddenly there was a reason why the insurance company could match the quotation received from a competitor.
Now it was always believed that companies would never get away with such practices in the business to business sector. Businesses would see through these dubious practices and would use the introductory offers to cut their costs, switching to a new introductory offer the following year.
Well those who thought this were wrong.
First the banks began to offer low or zero cost banking to new customers with no significant exodus after the first year. The rest followed in their wake culminating in deals from the previously ‘one price fits all’ utilities.
And to their delight they discovered the real benefits of business inertia.
Business electricity suppliers have adopted this worst practice - 'new customer only' pricing polices and the SAVE toolkit.
This has given business electricity suppliers a buffer in which to recruit new customers with even more attractive rates whilst the ‘loyal’ customer is forced to subsidise this new acquisition.

1.Be aware of what your competition is doing but don’t “compete” with them. To do so results in a game of “leapfrog” – this year your product’s a little better, next year, theirs is a little better, etc. This is a tough way to do business. This is the way to stay at breakeven or less. Instead, keep your focus on your customers and on how to “

Dynasties fall, empires break, seasons pass—but one thing that never ends is mankind’s technological progress. To prove it one more time and this time, with remarkable prospects, laser tube processing has come to make things easier for the tube-cutting industry.

electrity4business, the independent business electricity supplier, said “these new customer only pricing policies are shocking. There isn’t any reason why an existing customer should be offered a worse price than new customers. After all it costs the supplier more money to taken on a new customer”.
Businesses can have the last laugh!
Business electricity customers should make sure that they don’t accept hiked up renewal prices and insist that their current supplier gives their ‘new customer’ price.
Businesses should vote with their feet by rejecting the renewal prices, cancelling the existing supply contract at the end of term and make the incumbent supplier provide them with new customer prices.
