Is it easy to switch my gas and electricity?
Did you know that around 4 in 10 households have never switched their energy supplier? If you've never switched your energy, then you have the greatest potential to make huge savings. Comparing and switching your energy supplier online only takes a few minutes, and uSwitch takes care of all the paperwork for you.
If you've switched before then don't let that put you off - there are always new plans coming out and the energy market is constantly changing. Check regularly that you're still on the cheapest plan and make sure you're not paying over the odds for your gas and electricity.
What else can I do to save on my gas and electricity bills?
To maximise the savings you could make on your energy bills, follow these three simple steps.
- Take your gas and electricity from the same supplier - this is called dual fuel and most suppliers will offer a discount for doing this.
- Pay your energy bills by direct debit - this will earn further discounts on your bill.
- Sign up to an online energy plan - this is where energy suppliers offer their most competitive prices.
