Would We Get A Better Deal If We Switch?

Hi All

We have our Gas and Electric supplied on a Dual Fuel fixed tariff (Nov 11) and from what we're hearing we could possibly get a better deal. I've put our consumption below:

Gas from 15/03/09 - 01/03/10 we consumed 7779 KWH we pay 7.203p for the first KWH and then 3.632p for the next KWH

Electric from 15/03/09 - 01/03/10 we consumed 2851 KWH we pay 23.646p for the first KWH and then 11.756p for the next KWH

We will be penalised £100 for leaving early but if the saving is greater then it would be well worth it.

So is there possibly a better deal out there for us, any comments and feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Many Thanks
Ian & Nikkei

    Prices vary according to where you live, and you don't say who provides your gas and electricity.

    Those prices seem very high for a tariff that has a early leaving penalty. You will also probably get dual fuel and direct debit discounts applied to your bill - that can make a big difference.

    You should just enter your details in a comparison website(like energyhelpline - see top of page) and that will give you full answers to your questions.

    You also have very low gas consumption and below average electricity.

    Hi Cardew

    Thanks for the reply, our supplier is British Gas. I'm off to energyhelpline to go look now.

    Thanks
