Utility supplier

luckybert

My Mum uses utility warehouse and they supply her gas, electricity, broadband and landline phone. She pays over £200 per month.
I think this is high. I'm looking to switch her to a cheaper deal. Which companies do I use to compare these services as I can only seem to find comparisons find gas and electricity?

Good place to start here : https://www.uswitch.com/.
Dont use switching services,do it yourself.

I can see I can compare gas and electric but where can I compare gas, electric, broadband and phone please?

Use the drop down boxes in the page header,landline deals are under broadband for some reason.
Maybe I'm not understanding what your asking for,if you want a single comparison for all those separate things combined I've no idea where offers that.
Even if somewhere does doing seperate comparisons for each will likely provide better results.

Yeah single comparison for those items or someone (other than utility warehouse) who can offer a utility package for gas, electric, broadband and landline.

Cant advise any further,£200 per months likely the price to be paid for the convenience of putting all your eggs in one basket,should you so want to.
If you do find somewhere that offers what you want please do post details here as it might help others who cant,wont,or dont wish to do their own comparisons.

That is often a more expensive way of purchasing as an all in one .

if you can provide a breakdown of the services, perhaps someone here can help you.
Information you will need:
1. Phone - what package does she need, does she need a landline? does she need free calls all day or just evenings and weekends?
2. Broadband - What broadband does she have, is it ADSL, fibre, g-fast or FTTH. What speed is she getting, what speed do you need. Do you have access to cable (virginmedia) at your address?
3. Electricity and gas - what is the annual consumption for each utility in kwh.

If you have all this info, then someone can help you in getting a good deal.

@luckybert Just do it one step at a time - gas, electric, phone / broadband - then close your mum's UW account saving the club fee.  

When using the comparison sites for gas and electric go for separate suppliers - dual fuel is generally not the best option.

Uswitch will default you to expensive suppliers that pay them commission.  Better to use Citizens Advice and 'Which? Switch'. Make sure you enter annual kWh usage from actual bills and ignore all projections and savings claims, just compare annual costs.
