Why to use?

JohnClimber

Hi I'm a newby so please keep is simple for me.

If all goes well we are moving to our new 4 bed detacted house on Friday.

Which companies for Gas, Electric, Water and Phone line are the best value at the moment up here in the North West of England?

Many thanks:beer:

go to one of the price comparison links above, enter your postcode, and try with 2 different usage figures, eg 3300kwh el & 20500kwh gas, make a note of the best tariff offered, try the same again with 4000kwh el & 25000kwh gas.. read any relevant terms, eg if minimum contract period etc, then pick the one that suits your needs best.. The lower figures above are the ones recommended for an average 3 bed property

Looks like Bristish Gas WebSaver 6

Anyone on here using this and is it as good as they claim?

seems an ok deal, but as with everything these days read the T&Cs before you sign up.

Remember with WebSaver6, you'll be forced to pay via Direct Debit (which a lot of people like to use, so I suppose it's not that bad, but thought I'd mention it) and obviously view your bills online. There's an exit penalty of £30 per fuel if you exit before 1st August 2010, the tariff expires 1st May 2011.

Don't think you have a choice with water?
