Comparison Sites are they accurate?

Yet again I am going down the tortuous route of price comparison!

I have visited 4 sites and used my annual KWh for both Gas and Electric. Confused.com is very different and not recommended by MSE but USwitch and EnergyHelpline/Moneysaving vary by £62 saving!

So why such a discrepancy?

EnergyHelpline and Moneysaving gave same results!


EnergyHelpline........Current Cost......£908......Save £45

USwitch................Current Cost......£863......Save £107

Confused...............Current Cost......£719......Minus £45

    OK I belatedly looked at the Q&A's, sorry!

    But the results give you little confidence that what they say is correct!

    So IMHO negating the usefulness of comparison sites :-(
