.70 could be a stuff up on their behalf, I have never heard of a plan being so high, ever. These days .20 is a good deal.Quote:

I only just switched to this plan & is a new account with AGL due to a subscriber name change, we were on $0.80 when we had the second solar installed on the shed roof & the installer said no one is that 'honeymoon deal' anymore, and advised when the inspector comes to check it for feed in that we would lose the high FIT , but it never changed & only just dropped to 0.70 a few months ago, which is ok because the buy price is cheaper too, So I'm not complaining.Quote:

We have had feed back from a few customers lately that have managed to get 20c fit, it's turns out they had all called up at around 10am, this must be something to do with where the calls go, if it be local or overseas.Quote:

The retailers must be making a packet from such low FIT then reselling at over 40c. I wonder why the ACCC hasn't had a hard look at them.
...........and do something? :Rolling::Rolling::Rolling:Quote:

I had some serious trouble hearing what a call centre tech woman was saying recently (9am AEDT), partly because her roosters were crowing in the background.Quote:

I am not sure how much of a saving going to the Solar Savers plan would be given that all tariffs service charges are about 6% more expensive that what I am on now (demand tariffs are the same) for a maximum of 70c a day extra FIT. Not sure where AGL see the savings for the solar power generator.
The saving grace for AGL here is the significant on time payment discount of about 13% on the total bill.
.... and GB, you're definitely on a good wicket, that FIT is from sometime in the middle of the last decade, you lucky bugger. My advice is to never query your bill[bigwhistle]
BTW the system we installed is just under 10kW. best day so far saw an output of over 64kWh(50kWh exported). I am now, strangely[bighmmm], very interested in advancements in battery tech which will hopefully see a better value proposition from an environmental, longevity and ..... financial perspective.
