Best Place to Compare Prices

Hi we have just bought a new house but wont be moving in straight away as there is a lot of work to be done before we can, but need an electricity supply. The previous owners used Utility Warehouse, but the reviews for them don't look too great. I just need electricity as the heating is supplied via an oil tank. Where is the best place to go for comparison prices - there seems to be a huge number of sites offering this service now. We are in Scotland.

    but no site is better than the other .

    You need to register with the current supplier before you are able to move . You are on a deemed contract with the existing supplier until you register and move or not .

    Hello, and welcome to MSE :hello:

    You will find lots of really useful MSE articles on this site.
    Here's one that may prove useful

    Some of the comparison sites suggested there offer even more possible cashback than the MSE Cheap Energy Club does now :money:
