Does anyone use ENI for gas & electricity? I fancy their new boiler deal but you need to be a client of gas and electricity. The electricity looks substantially cheaper than my ENEL bill but gas looks about the same to be honest.Just wondered what they are like to deal with.

hi penny,i don't use them..yet but have been thinking about it. traditionally they are a well organized serious company ..they extract gas and petrol all over the world..so i guess this is a natural progression for them into distribution it could prove to simplify things having a single supplier.We already know about ENEL.....and the miriad of gas companies..it might be worth going for this option

ENI is a big company, and pretty well organised, they were brilliantly quick sending me a cheque for an overpayment. I was with ENI for gas (well, it started as Italgas and then changed its name to Eni) but recently I've gone over to Enelenergia. Cannot say yet whether they are any cheaper, and I've no experience of Eni prices for electricity. It's a bit of a minefield - I assume there are some comparison sites on energy prices for the Italian market, but tarriffs seem to change on a daily basis, and then there are special deals like the boiler offer which might tip the balance. It is wise to read all the small print carefully, and see if any new contract is for a fixed term, or how much it costs to escape from it if it turns out not to be suitable.

Thanks very much for the info. They have some info on their site giving example costs depending on how much gas/electric you use and it would be cheaper for us. The prices are fixed for 2 years. The big question is what happens if you cancel/move house in the 2 years as our house is up for sale. I guess I'll have to give them a ring :-)
