    I understand now that the savings have got to be if you didn't switch and ended up on you current suppliers most expensive tariff. But how does that help us who always tend to switch, we are looking to better the deal we already had with our current supplier? 
    Instead we find increases in the standing charge and price per kWh to our current ending tariff by coming to the "cheaper" new supplier.
    I'd like to find a comparison site that asks what your current kWh rate is and standing charge and find a cheaper one. 
    Either don't fill in an end date for your current tariff, or make it at least 1 year away.:)

    Or use a site such as MSE's Cheap Energy Club that allows a calculation not only on the savings you will achieve in the next 12 months, but also based on the cost of yoiur current tariff even though it won't last another 12 months.

    Or you seem to be able to do the sums youself.

    So many options for you.
