elelctricswitcher

I have tried withot any success to switch my Gas & electric, the problem i have is that i can not find my tarrifs when going through the drop down lists in any of the switching sites.
Can anyone give me any ideas?
The tarrif i am on at present is called Fresh Start NSC with Scottish Power.

If you can't find your tariff it does not really matter. If your consumption and postcode are correct then the results should be reliable and in the correct order and have the correct prices. The only thing you have to ignore is the 'savings' amount. Calculate for yourself how much you would pay and compare.

The reason you cannot find Fresh Start is because that is one of the social tariffs offered by Scottish Power. As it is not generally available to all, it is not included on comparison sites.

Whilst you may find you can get a lower overall price with a different supplier even without the benefit of being on a social tariff, it might be wise to call each of the suppliers directly to see what they can offer in terms of their own social tariffs.

Note that eligibility requirements for social tariffs vary by supplier, so the fact you qualify for a social tariff with one supplier does not imply you will qualify for other suppliers.
