    Despite everything above I've gone ahead with the next switch via moneysupernarket, they're less fussy about switches in process !!

    And I've saved virtually nothing except an extended time.

    As JJ Egan suggests, perhaps you can give us an example or 2 available exclusively from TCB?
    - No, thought not :cool:

    Perhaps you need to read a post twice before you elect to "disagree totally" with it ...

    There are many comparison site exclusive deals that are available via various cashback sites.

    I never stated exclusively though Topcashback

    e.g. for my region

    Example 1

    SSE 1 year fix v16

    Elec 17.16 per kWh 23.81 daily standing charge

    Gas 3.88 per kWh 20.50 daily standing charge

    compared to uSwitch exclusive SSE 1 year fix

    Elec 11.191 per kWh 39.76 daily standing charge

    Gas 2.394 per kWh 42.25 daily standing charge

    Example 2

    nPower 1 year fix

    Elec 15.9705 per kWh 24.795 daily standing charge

    Gas 3.52065 per kWh 26.523 daily standing charge

    compared to uSwitch nPower exclusive v6 1 year fix

    Elec 15.131 per kWh 21.50 daily standing charge

    Gas 3.119 per kWh 20.18 daily standing charge


    I am sure that you could find them yourself, if you can be bothered to look for them and are capable of working out the saving for these two example exclusive tariffs that achieve more cashback than from CEC.

    It is obvious that you don't know as much as you think you do about energy prices!

    Perhaps you will choke on your humble pie, I do hope so.

    I agree that some sites do have different offers.


    If your someone who wants to switch monthly (Nothing wrong with that) then your best avoiding cash-back deals because your likely never going to sit with one supplier long enough to actually earn them.


    I find the CEC works fine for me (as do the other switch sites I have used) but they can all take a couple of months to fully register the changes correctly.


    CEC has "exclusive" deals sometimes itself. From what I have found, generally, the exclusive deals are not the cheapest every time. The example you give does show it cheaper, but are the exit cost the same, and does the other one come with a signing bonus?
