I had understood that Parish Buying would provide competitive energy pricing but it now transpires that our church has been signed up to a tariff with a very high standing charge which is out of line with the market. The commission Parish Buying take was also not made clear. It is proving very difficult to make contact with anyone at Parish Buying to discuss and the lack of transparency is a major issue for me.
I thought that Parish Buying should be able to offer us lower prices, as they are buying energy in bulk. However, for our 2023 contract, we found ourselves signed up to a contract with a very high standing charge, without any discussion or leeway.
I work for another charity and with them we received quotes which were lower than the contract that Parish Buying negotiated on our behalf. So, it's hard to believe that the contract we were offered is best value for us as a church.
