Cheap Energy Club Reliability

Hi,
When I try & get a comparison on CEC I don't seem to get consistent prices. EG My comparison price today initially came back @ potentially £170 saving over a year. The second time CEC quoted £27. When checking Frequently Asked Questions CEC states they include all providers but my provider (Tomato) isn't there. I compared the Kwhrs & Standing Charge tariffs for 30 days & Tomato consistently comes out cheaoper with no Exit fee. Can anyone shed light on these anomalies?

    MSECEC is currently pretty unreliable as to savings.  They also do not include all suppliers or all tariffs from suppliers they do list, they don't even list some of the tariffs shown in the latest MSE newsletter !

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    I'm using the MSE app and when trying to access the Cheap Energy Club I get the message that the page doesn't exist.
