I had gas separate as I went with a small company and the prices were very competitive and I’ve been with them for a few years and they were great. Admittedly no bells and whistles, a work in progress online login account was being worked on towards the end but i got emails regular each month and was very easy, no hassles at all.
I did toy with fixing my gas and elec with same supplier but existing gas came to a bit cheaper and as they had been fine up till then, I decided to stick with them but turned out the company went bust purely because the company they bought gas off went bust and they couldn’t get it for similar price so they went bust as they couldn’t make it work then due to rice rises etc.
I’ve always found better deal son single tariffs than dual fuel so they have always been separate but now the market has effectively shrunk as most smaller/competitive companies are fewer, I suspect they will all be fairly similar now as no real need to compete much these days they can just all hike the prices. Whereas with smaller companies they had reasons to try be competitive and smaller companies got certain tax breaks etc to help them be more competitive.
