Total 1484 so 598 or 896/1484x100= percentage:D
No cashback for switching to zog or GB
Thank you for working this out for me. I can now get on with the job of switching - not one that I like doing but needs must!0 -
I'm in a similar position with Sainsburys, current tarrif ending mid February. New "best" tariff offered by Sainsburys shows a 50% increase in electric price - time for a move.0

Got Sainsbury's email today. I just checked via Quidco which gives a £40 duel fuel switch cashback rate but can't tell you if their comparison tool gives best rates, but seems to be suggesting a very decent saving on current usage (my own, not yours!).0

Don't believe some of the nonsense posted on this site. OFGEM-accredited comparison sites do not offer different rates for a given supplier's tariffs. Each supplier is allowed a maximum of 4 tariffs. From time to time, organisations like MSE may offer a limited time collective switch which it has negotiated with a particular supplier. Collective switches are not shown on a supplier's website.
Comparison sites may offer to share some of their referral fee with you: some do not. Finally, beware of the savings shown on comparison sites as most use the OFGEM-mandated energy savings methodology. It assumes that if you have a month to run on your fixed tariff then the next 11 months of the following year will be on the supplier's standard variable tariff. This leads to inflated costs and inflated savings when you switch to another fixed deal. I compare annual costs - present tariff v new tariff - when calculating savings.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.
