I have just spent way too long comparing electricity plans now that my Lumo contract is about to run out. Looks like I'll be moving from Lumo to Sumo for power, and to Alinta for gas. I hate that we have to contantly be doing this to get a decent price, and it sucks that the people who can't have to pay more. Why do we allow people who can't constantly stay on top of this sort of thing to be taken advantage of? It might be popular to call it a "lazy tax" but it is really an extra cost burden on the vulnerable.
