Just moved into our new house - Gas & Elec Supplier help

Options
Hello

We have just moved into our new house (gas & elect) and just wondering if someone could help us select the product. The new house already has SP as supplier. But there are too many products and tech details around pricing on the website. The customer service are not bery helpful as always.

we are 2 people - elec n gas consumption wont be too much just for heater and washing .. and would like to give regular metre reading (monthly or quarterly would be okay)

thanks in advance

    Sorry it is online,you submit readings online and receive reminders when it's time to read your meter,My last bill was for just over 2 months as i decided to read my meters early,you don't have to wait 3 months if you don't want to,you can do it anytime.

    Are these figures per month,i pay £54 per month but it goes up and down depending on your bills and how much credit or debit you have

    Work out your annual consumption figures and go to one of the comparison sites recommended by MSE.

    Assuming gas CH and single rate electricity, you could start with a UK average of 20,500Kwh for gas and 3,300 Kwh for electricity.
    Using estimated monthly spends will not give you an accurate comparison.
