Having got to the situation where I haver to tell Powergen what my meter readings are on line..all the sites seem to say that my best supplier for my usage would be BRITISH GAS????
Something like 15-20% savings...
Currently I am on direct debit...
Using online stuff to keep my meter readings synched with powergens estimates.
Anyone got any horror stories about BG as an electricity supplier?
or the perils of changing standing orders..
I'll just say that "all the sites" were using a rate for my current supplier much higher than I was currently paying. They get a big bonzana if someone swaps.
I'd got some sort of guaranteed rate a few years ago.
Worth checking.

Yes - I've swapped a couple of times now, and I at least always make sure that I check the identified cheapest company (and maybe the top
2-3?) using manual calculations; as Derek says, it's not always the same result! Doesn't help much if the site has *overestimated* the rates charged by a competitor which accordingly gets missed off the reccommended list altogether of course.Also worth running the comparison on more than one site to check for consistency but IIRC most of them seem to use the same search tool.
