Cheap Energy Club for Landlords

stephengulliver

Hi everyone, I hope this is the appropriate forum for this thread, apologies if not. I'm a new landlord and I have more than one property. I've signed up for Cheap Energy Club for my first house, which looks like an excellent idea. I then tried to enter my details for a second property, but it failed because it said the email address was the same as an existing account. Instead I used a different email address, but if I get any more properties I'm going to have keep creating new email addresses to cover them with the Cheap Energy Club. Have I missed something please? Many thanks for your time. Sam

No you haven't missed anything.

The cheap energy club is aimed at domestic users. Each residential address has one account per fuel - and that is the limit the CEC has too.
i.e. it allows you to compare energy prices per address, and alerts you when you are not on the best deal for that particular address (and the usage you declare)

The way around it is, as you say, register with more than one email adress. i.e. one email address per residential address.

Are you actually paying the energy bills for the properties you rent out? Usually it's for the tenant to sort out their own bills in which case no need for you to bother
If you have HMO, then perhaps you do pay for the energy yourself.
