HOW UNLIMITED ENERGY WORKS
UNLIMITED ENERGY FOR STUDENTS
Unlimited Energy for your student house
Unlimited Energy is a game changer for house shares. Here's how it works and how to get fixed prices for a year.
Here’s how Unlimited Energy works
-
Pay your bill each month.
-
Use all the gas and electricity you need.
-
…That’s literally it.
It’s a bit like an unlimited phone contract. And, unlike a traditional capped deal from a supplier, you’ll never never get a bill for “overuse” at the end of your contract.
12-MONTH STUDENT BILLS CONTRACTS
Fixed-price student energy bills
Sign up for 12 months with Fused as a student or graduate to get a fixed energy tariff for your Unlimited Energy. This means:
-
Your energy price won't change for the length of your contract.
-
Easier finances, because your monthly bill payments will also stay the same.
-
Your price won't change during your contract, even if energy prices rise or fall.
STUDENT BILL CONTRACTS TO MATCH TENANCY
Custom student energy bills
If your custom package length is less than 12 months, or you're not a student or graduate, your Unlimited Energy will be be on a variable energy tariff.
-
Your energy prices will change with the Ofgem Energy Price Cap every three months
-
Your monthly bill payment will be adjusted up or down automatically.
-
You'll be in the loop with updates 30 days before any change to your price.
UNLIMITED ENERGY FOR STUDENTS
Is Unlimited Energy really unlimited?
Yep. Unlimited for any domestic use. As long as you’re not operating a small factory or an industrial kiln, you’re good.
Covered by Unlimited Energy:
-
As much heating as you need to stay warm
-
As many charging cables as you need to stay connected
-
As many nights in front of the TV as you like
-
All the showers and baskets of laundry you need to stay fresh
Not covered by Unlimited Energy:
-
Any non-domestic energy use
HOW IS UNLIMITED ENERGY DIFFERENT?
Unlimited Energy vs. Capped
Unlimited Energy is a service you pay for, not an amount of energy you pay for.
-
With a traditional energy supplier, you pay for every unit of energy you use. This is a capped energy deal.
-
With Unlimited Energy, you pay one price each month to use all the energy you need with no usage limits.
-
There's no risk of a huge bill at the end of your package, because there’s no limit to go over.
-
Like an unlimited mobile contract, there's no money back if you don't use a certain amount.
Your Unlimited Energy tariff is based on the price of energy, because we pay energy suppliers on your behalf - but your monthly bill will never change based on your energy use.

No charges for “over using” energy. Ever.

With Unlimited Energy you don’t need to be like the 52% of students who avoid putting the heating on to save money in winter. (Save the Student)
STUDENT BILLS PACKAGE VERDICT
And here’s why students love their Fused bills package

So, what’s a capped bills package? And why is Fused better for students?
A capped energy package is the default offering from energy suppliers, and it’s what you’d get if you set up an account with them. You pay the same each month, but get billed at the end of your contract if you use “too much” energy. Unlimited Energy from Fused lets you use as much as you need with no worries.
WHY IT’S GREAT IN REAL LIFE
Why Unlimited Energy is a better deal for students
Capped energy bills are always an option, of course, but here are some stories from real students about problems Unlimited Energy would have solved for them at uni
-
I used to live with a girl who’d bang on the door when I showered ‘cause she was worried about the cost of bills. I would check she wasn't in the house before I would take a shower. Wouldn't have been an issue if we had an Unlimited Energy package.
-
On the capped package we had from a supplier, my housemates and I would set timers on our phones and use the heating on for a max of half an hour a day for fear of getting charged extra…you can imagine how cold and miserable it was.
-
When I finally moved into my own flat on a capped package, I went over my energy allowance in the first month. I just had no idea how much I was actually using until I was charged.
-
Someone unofficially moved his girlfriend in. She’d take long showers, blow-dry her hair etc. At the end of the tenancy there was an energy bill for £350 over use (capped package!) and he refused to let his girlfriend be charged a penny.
These have been edited for length and clarity, but otherwise they’re from real students, some of whom have worked for Fused.
