Hi all,

My wife and I have just started renting a 2 bed victorian cottage. The current supplier of Gas and electricity is southern electric. Do I stay with them, or who would be better for us? We are only home evenings and weekends really so wont be big users.

Thanks
Proud dad to Darcy.....

    You need to register accounts with them as any switch of supplier will take at least 4-6 weeks .

    If you've an idea of anticipated annual usage, use a comparison site. If not, any switch may be a case of out of the frying pan...

    When you register with SSE, ask them about the best deals they could offer you as otherwise they will probably put you on their standard (usually most expensive) tariff. Check about any early exit fees if you are still considering switching supplier.
