Is it worth switching energy suppliers ?

hi members, just a quick query , I have duel fuel with eon on their standard eon energy plan which I find highly costly and even their (few) other plans to switch to aren't amazing !

I know it is likely eon and others are likely to follow SSE's price hikes around November but could I find another supplier that hasn't announced prices hikes yet and switch to them with one of their cheaper fixed tariffs therefore avoiding price increases with that potential new supplier ??

I have done a comparison check and N POWER have come up cheaper bearing in mind I have used my actual usage and units pricings based on eons current energy plan tariff.

I have about £50 debit to eon and no contract ties to them.

thanks for any relevant info/replies.

    It's always worth switching from Standard, because it's always the most expensive tariff. Why are you still on it?
    Go for the cheapest fix you like.
