Switch with confidence

uSwitch.com has agreed deals with some gas and electricity suppliers to receive a small commission payment when a customer chooses to switch through us. However, this does not affect the rankings of suppliers in your results. Our commercial relationships are in place to help make the switching process as convenient as possible for our customers, and in some cases we can offer online deals that are not available directly from the supplier.

uSwitch.com’s priority is delivering the best customer experience we can. How do we achieve this?

• If you’re new to switching we have a comprehensive library of articles, which can inform and help your switching decision. We recommend you start with the section Why switch?
• We keep our switching process as simple as we can. The questions we ask are to help us deliver accurate results, which match your needs. And when you switch, we only ask for the information the supplier requires to switch you as quickly as possible
• We’ve already thought of the questions you may have and included them at each step. So if you need some guidance, it’s just a click away

Our commercial relationships have no bearing on the ranking of suppliers in your results. To ensure you get the whole picture when you make your comparison, we provide information from all the suppliers available through our service.

The rates we use to calculate your results are provided directly by suppliers. We monitor all suppliers continually and update to ensure our results are comprehensive and accurate.

We are delighted to be a part of this new, more robust, Confidence Code and support any initiative that results in increased impartiality, accuracy and greater consumer confidence.
