About our services

We continuously monitor all UK gas and electricity suppliers and in many cases we have tariff information even before tariff changes are actually made. In this way we aim to ensure that we have the most accurate, reliable and comprehensive service in the market. Where we provide online application services, we are paid a small commission by the relevant supplier. This in no way affects the way in which we present savings, nor does it affect the price that you pay for your energy.

Why should I switch?

Consumers in the UK are free to choose their gas and electricity suppliers. The best deals offer substantial savings, and shopping around with this tool will help you find out how much you could save. It’s just like looking for a better deal on your home insurance or motor insurance.

What do I need?

To get a quote takes just a few minutes. Tell us your postcode, the name of your suppliers, how much you spend per year, and we’ll tell you how much you could save.

How does your service work?

This service compares over 6,000 different and constantly updated energy prices, from all the main suppliers in England, Scotland and Wales.

What happens after I submit an application?

We will confirm your application by e-mail and forward your details securely to your chosen supplier. The supplier will start organising the switch and will contact you to confirm when the service will start.

What are the advantages to me?

This is a fully comprehensive, fully independent, and fully impartial service. It is fast, friendly, secure and FREE . We pull together all the data and information from the utility industry to make your life easier. Within 10 minutes you could end up saving over £170 a year on your energy bills. Try it for yourself and see. Use the service as often as you like; there is no obligation.

How do you keep your prices up to date?

We monitor all gas and electricity suppliers, and all tariffs, on a continuous basis. In most cases, we receive information before tariff changes are actually made. In this way we aim to provide you with the most comprehensive and accurate source of service and price data in the market.
