New Electric Bill rec'd, huge increase aaaarrrrgggghhh

After being on contract for several years my electric contract has come to an end and my bill has gone ballistic.

Has anyone got any (recent) experience of electricty comparison sites as the ones I use for home don't quote for business, & the ones i've used in the past for business are either defunct/not quoting/ require filling in of multiple details to get a quote.

As usual any help will be gratefully rec'd.

  • I haven't got a business comparison service for you but I recently used energyonline to switch to powergen and then moved house.

    My final bill came to a whopping £750 (usually £40). Few hours on the phone and finally they agree its all their fault and the real bill is £58.

    Muppets. Not recommending powergen.
    Sense is not common.

    I work for a charity, and we've used them, but AFAIK it's not limited to charities, certainly doesn't say so on main web page. Don't remember the forms being too complicated either.

    Please tell me if you've already tried this lot!
