I have just moved and need to look at a new supplier. I wanted to go to first utility but failed their credit checks, my credit rating is awful so not shocked. do any of the bigger suppliers not do credit checks?

a lot do now, as so many are trying to avoid paymentsDon't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.0

Why?
Who is your present deemed supplier?
Is your meter a PPM or credit meter?0 -
its southern electric for both gas and electricity, on a credit meter want to avoid prepay at all costs0
-
What tariff are you on and how much would you save by shifting?
There is no point of changing supplier if you end up with a PPM and don't save anything0 -
I guess im on their standard tariff, I literally just moved here so not called them yet0
