Moving to a larger property

Hi all, some newbie advice required if possible...
I am moving home on November 16th and would like to register a new account with a new energy supplier.
My issue is I'm unsure as to how the whole process works as I've not done this before.
I am currently living in a 2 bed flat and am moving to a 3 bed house. I've been on the usual comparison sites and obtained quotes based on my usage at my current property and I'm being quoted around £850 (duel fuel). However, if I enter details for my new address and don't specify and previous usage, I'm being quoted around twice that amount, obviously based on national averages.
So, do I go ahead with a quote based on my usage at my current address, or, should I wait until I've moved?

Its not everso hard to make up your own figures to put in - why not use your existing figure plus about 20% to get you somewhere near and then you can read your meters regularly when you get in and monitor your consumption against your own estimates.Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers0
