    Probably best to stay with them until you establish some kind of usage profile, else the words frying pan and fire spring to mind. ;)

    If it's a repossession and you are planning to work on it then the last thing you want is standard tariffs in winter. Workmen and powertools and wide open windows and heating left on daytime as well as evenings. Have a look on the comparison sites for whichever tariffs are cheapest in your region for a bit above average gas and a lot above average electricity.

    Once any work is complete then you can think about establishing your actual useage profile and switching again (if necessary.)
