Are there any catches for me to change from EnergyOnline Extra Saver 8


Discounts
  • 6.00 % Direct Debit Discount
  • 2.00 % Dual Fuel Direct Debit Discount
  • 7.30 % Online Discount
To the SaveOnline tariff

  • 6.00 % Direct Debit Discount
  • 2.00 % Dual Fuel Direct Debit Discount

The Elec and Gas charges are the same but the SaveOnline gives me an extra 2.30% online discount.
Are there any other factors I should consider before changing?

    Hi freddysmith,

    It looks like you have got all of the info correct to me, the SaveOnline tariff is one of the new products we have brought out.

    I considered exactly the same change as you, but after going through a couple of comparison sites realised EDF's Online V5 was more competitive and switched to them. Also got cashback.

    I'd suggest you put your usage details into a few comparison sites and see what comes up. That's the easiest way of deciding what you do next.

    I will have a look at EDF's Online V5 with a more accurate reading from my bills.
    On a rough usage it says I would save £144.
    Did you also receive £14 cashback?
