This gives a good price on cashback sites, but you dont appear to be able to use the cashback sites, only by going direct to OVO, then why do the cashback sites show them? anyone managed to get any cashback?

    What cashback site have you seen them on then?

    Do you mean a comparison site ?

    They don't let you switch through Energy Helpline anymore. However the OVO switching part of their website is just a branded version of Energy Helpline?!

    Anyone know where I could get any cashback on this, as my parents are wishing to switch to them asap?

    Think you may be out of luck as far as cashback goes, you could see how much the 100% green option is with Ovo but I would imagine going for that would cancel out any cashback anyway as its slightly more expensive.

    Comparison sites have to show all providers - regardless of whether they get commission from the suppliers and/or are able to offer cashback etc.

    I'm currently changing to Ovo via http://www.simplyswitch.com/moneysavingexpertcashback/ss_offer_page_a.html

    Must have changed - as it allowed me to change to Ovo online a couple of weeks ago.
