Can I keep switching gas and electricity

Last month I swapped from powergen to British gas via quidco and then powergen tempted me back this month with guarantee of being cheaper than British gas till 2009 and a payment of £25. In the last week I've seen that scottish power would be cheaper again for me by quite a bit. Problem is how often can i change suppliers and how much time do I have to leave between changing, if any. As far as I know I am under no contract. Thanks for any help anyone can give

AFAIK you have to wait 30 days between switches so in theory, you can switch every four weeks or so.0

I like the idea, switching even six times a year at an average cashback of £40 plus my old age winter fuel allowance would make a tidy profit.
Once the energy providers catch on tho perhaps will refuse to take you on.0 -
Yeah, 28 days and you can move.
Be careful of any lock in deals that may start surfacing though.
I think switching between seasons is a good idea if a Supplier is better for you than you current one.
Just be aware that switching on average takes 6-8 weeks, but in reality it can take 6 months behind the scenes. The more you switch, the more likely you are to experience data issues and wait longer for a bill.:rotfl: It's better to live 1 year as a tiger than a lifetime as a worm...but then, whoever heard of a wormskin rug!!!:rotfl:0
