Who are you moving to and why?

I'm with the above at the moment and I am getting the feeling its getting expensive, I haven't worked out my usage but comming into winter Im barely in credit where as last year I was in credit more.

I can see cashback websites are paying upto £150 for switching suppliers.

Is Npower and EDF ok? I like this EcoManager device that EDF have.

    I just switched from Southern to EDF earlier this evening getting £100 from EDF (after 3 months) and £80 from Top Cashback AND the tariff is cheaper.:beer:

    Read Martins articles on switching.

    He recommends:
    (1) use a comparison site
    (2) don't base any comparison decision on the promise of cashback from a third party site
    (3) don't base any decision on the basis solely of a 'free' gizmo
