Hi cinders59,
Energy deals are starting to slowly return, though savings for switching aren’t anywhere near the same levels they were before the energy crisis.
However, a few firms offer tariffs that could be worth considering – though some of the cheapest are for existing customers of that firm. If you want to consider those types of tariff, you can first switch to that provider’s standard tariff then ask to be moved to the existing customer deal. Though do be aware deals can be pulled at any time, and switching firm usually takes around five days.
For the full options, and more info on whether it’s worth considering switching, see our Stick, switch or fix and Should you fix? guides
Thanks

Just received an email. "good news the energy price cap is going down as per OffGem price cap
But the standing charge is going up
Surely not a saving thenThanks to all who post compsITV winners membersclub#20 -
It's the same with all companies on their SV tariffs.1

Pretty much every supplier within the same region offers the same pricing, within less than 1% of the Ofgem SVT, unfortunately at the moment there are no cheaper tariffs.cinders59 said:My tarrif ended in July now I am on the Standard tarrif gone up from £90 month to £170
