Get your energy tariff on track this winter
The energy market is always changing and with many different products on offer it is vital that you shop around to ensure you are on the best energy deal for your needs – and if not, switch.
With winter drawing closer, now is an ideal time to review your energy tariff(s) and switch to a better deal if needed. It usually only takes a matter of weeks to complete a switch, meaning your new tariff should be up and running before the colder weather takes hold and your winter fuel usage kicks in.*
If you are thinking about switching energy tariff the first step is to dig out your old bills and take accurate meter readings. Once you know what your typical energy spend and usage is you should consider how you prefer to pay and manage your energy bills. If you want to protect yourself against any future energy price hikes for a longer period of time, a fixed contract could be a good choice. You should be able to narrow down the options to those that best suit you and your family’s needs. And finally, before taking out a new energy policy, don’t forget to read the small print to make sure you are aware of all the specifics.
Whilst switching may seem like a hassle, it is in everyone’s interest and the process really is quite simple. Putting in some time and effort now could save you money in the long run.
