The recommendations for 'switcher sites' on MSE all allow online checking - but a phone number too:

Energy Helpline Cashback 0800 279 45 46
Save On Your Bills Cashback 0845 331 2034,
Energylinx 0800 849 7077
Uswitch 0800 093 0607
Buy 0845 601 2856
Simply Switch 0800 781 1212
The Energy Shop 0845 0450160
UK power 0800 0932447
Switchandgive 0845 0840 300
Unravelit 0845 120 2056

Why not ring up (I'd choose the 0800 ones first) using your father's name, tell them you're not online and compare phone quotes?

now now, no scottish power plugs pls.

and yes WE do know that simply switch are affiliated with scottish power.

personally i find ukpower to be one of the better sites.

as for giving your fathers name, it is not necessary for the comparison. simply give the properties post code and annual consumption. do not give names as you may find that your father gets 'accidently' transferred.
