How do I choose a supplier?

My husband is in the forces and we have just moved to the UK from Germany and so are in the process of finding suppliers for everything!
At the moment our gas is with British Gas and electricity with southern electric as these are the default suppliers for the MOD.
Due to being out of the UK for nearly 4 years we have no idea what our consumption will be like or how much we need to pay! The house we have just moved in to is a smallish 3 bedroomed end of terrace. Gas for heating and cooking. For the time being (until I find a job) I will be the only one home in the daytime.
The compare sites aren't very helpful for me at the moment as I have no idea of what figures to put in for comparrison.
Can anyone give me any guidance? Thank you.

    The comparions sites will guess for you if you don't know your consumption. They will use an average which is the best you can do.
