Cheap Energy Club not always clear

I plugged my details into the club's webpage, to get a "personal" switching recommendation and its "NEW Top Picks" tab showed me :
"Hurrah! You can save £34 a year by switching to the top dual fuel deal" (the deal offered was a March 2017 fixed at £1,623 pa.)
However, when I clicked on the Fixed/capped Tarriffs tag I found another long fix (Jan 2017) at £1,578 pa - saving me £89 a year and also saving me £51 in switching charges.
As with most "money saving" ideas, this demonstrates that you shouldn't accept what you read first time.
