Switching provider - How often can I switch

mc_emily

Hi
How often can I switch energy provider, please I've been with my current one for 2 months now but just seen a better deal. I have no exit fees. Could I switch again? Are you allowed to switch as often as you like?

Thanks for any advice

You can only switch every 28 days under the current arrangements.

When were these 'current arrangements' implemented?

As we successfully applied to switch again as soon as we were confirmed as being with a new supplier - that was about March time.

We were with the 'intermediate' supplier for about 21 days only.

I suspect the 'about 21' was actually 28 days. This has been in place since 98.

It would nt make sense to allow customers without exit fee s to, "switch as often as they like " otherwise some would be switching every few days and messing up the system that no one could keep track of the energy use and end up paying nothing leaving a trail of confusion.
28 days is a generous period , too generous IMO. I would personally make 3 months the limit .
