Hi Guys,

I have been comparing my gas and electricity prices online i have an acurate figure based on 12 months monthy spend from my current supplier. However i put my tariff monthy spend etc inthe usual sites,moneysupermarket,tesco compare etc but they seem to give me different savings and different companys for the best saving.
eg moneysupermarket says EDF save 153 per year (best option)
Tesco compare says british gas save £160 per year (best option)

does anyone know who to trust because someboby is giving inacurate figures

Thanks

    Contact your supplier again and ask for your annual consumption in kWh.

    Put that into as many comparison sites as you like and you should get the same results from each. :)

    Always use annual consumption figures on comparison sites, not monthly DD amounts or annual spends.
