Energy Costs to Rise. (Again)

So what is the best way to get the best rate?

For years I paid my bills directly with EDF and British Gas, I was often offered a deal by either to take on both accounts under one company, and I always turned them down.

Then about 6 years ago I came across a company who would use their resources to find the best deal out there for all my energy.

I wouldn't say it was a 'catch', but there was a fee involved, and that was, if they could save me £50 or more on my current prices, I had to pay a £25 yearly fee, for as long as I wished them to source the market for me.

So I can quit at anytime.

After giving them the details of both accounts they came back to me and told me that by changing suppliers, I could save £260 in the first year, so I agreed and they transferred my accounts to a new supplier for my gas and electricity.

I must admit I was sceptical, but I took my own meter readings and compared what I was paying to what I was now paying, and in the first year they did as they said, and saved me just over £260

So the 2nd year came and I paid another £25, they kept an eye on the market and when something cheaper came along, the flipped me over to a new supplier.

In the last 6 years I've had 4 different suppliers, each one slightly cheaper than the last.

But it must get to a point whereby I'll be paying rock bottom prices and no further deals are available.

But the thing I like about it all, is for £25 per year, they do all the work and they take no commission from the companies they use, it is impartial.

Now there are a few companies out there offering this service, I have not compared them, I am happy with my choice, and my choice was ‘Flipper Community’, Google it to lean more.
