npower launches ‘Football Saver’ energy tariff

To celebrate the start of npower’s sponsorship of the Football League, npower is launching the cheapest available offline direct debit product.

Called ‘npower Football Saver’, it promises to be 7% cheaper than npower’s standard monthly direct debit dual fuel offering and is available for off-grid single fuel electricity customers who also pay by direct debit.

Aimed at new customers ‘npower Football Saver’ also includes a free £45 voucher to be spent, for example on a new football shirt, at Football League club shops across the country.

‘npower Football Saver’ is on average £68 per year cheaper than the British Gas standard monthly direct debit dual fuel offering; and over £90 cheaper than the SSE equivalent.

‘npower Football Saver’ is guaranteed to be 7% cheaper than npower standard direct debit rates until 30 September 2011.

Giuseppe Di Vita, managing director of customer markets at npower said: “When designing this product we wanted to achieve two goals, first we wanted to support local football clubs across the country, second we wanted a competitive offline product for new npower customers.

“We’ve scored on both fronts with the free £45 voucher to be spent at club shops, for the new seasons’ football shirt, and the cheapest direct debit offering available offline.”
