Uswitch comments on latest Energy UK switching figures

Commenting on today’s announcement from Energy UK that electricity switching rates have surpassed 400,000 for the third consecutive month, Ann Robinson, Director of Consumer Policy at Uswitch.com, says: “It’s really encouraging that record numbers of consumers are taking control of their energy bills, but more needs to be done to help households engage with the market. The Competition and Markets Authority and Ofgem must quickly implement the proposed final remedies from the CMA’s energy investigation to boost competition, improve customer service and reduce bills.

“It takes just a few minutes to find the best energy tariffs. People switching with Uswitch.com save an average of £394 a year, proving that shopping around really does pay off.”
