Cashback and credit search - Cheap Energy Club

Hi,
If I switch between tariffs with British Gas using the Cheap Energy Club, will a credit search be performed on me?
Also, will I still be eligible for the £20 cashback?

Thanks,

masonic

There should be no need for a credit search or cashback if you are not switching between different suppliers.

Additional information

This information is required by your provider to complete your switch

As part of your application, British Gas will carry out a credit check to ensure that the most appropriate tariff and payment method is available to you. This will involve sharing information with credit reference agencies and will leave a record on your credit file. As part of this process, British Gas may need to offer you secured payment terms, such as Monthly Direct Debit and/or payment of a Security Deposit. British Gas will contact you separately in the event this is required. Click to view the full terms and conditions
