Energy providers usually offer several tariffs so that you can choose the type of payment that suits your needs and lifestyle best. E.g. you may decide if you wish to pay your bill monthly or every 3 months. Or, you can choose a tariff which guarantees fixed prices per energy unit.

Are you worrying about energy prices? There are a few ways to lower your gas bill.
