Cheap Energy Club Not Showing My Tariff

Cheap Energy Club is not showing my current tariff so I cannot get a comparison.

I am on the Fuse - 'Dec Single Rate Fixed (13m) v5', but Cheap Energy Club only shows the 'January 2026 Fixed (12m) v2'.

It is not important right now, but I do like to see if I could be saving money, especially when the new Price Cap comes out in April.

    It doesn't matter.  Just do the sums based on actual meter readings 12 months apart.  Always compare annual costs not DD amounts.

    Use the same figures you put into the CEC, your actual annual kWh use, and work out the cost on your current tariff both annual and monthly (1/12th annual) as shown in the CEC.  You can then compare that with what the CEC throws up.

    Unfortunately, your current tariff is classified as an "exclusive" energy tariff.
    It was only offered via a specific comparison site (uSwitch, I believe) or direct via the supplier.
    Comparison sites do not usually list details of any "exclusive" tariff, unless they actually originally offered that particular tariff themselves.
    Perhaps try uSwitch? (or whichever other comparison site you originally found it on)

    It doesn't matter if your current supplier or tariff isn't listed.  Just tell the MSE CEC that you're with Ecotricity, Good Energy or whatever and see the results. Then do the sums and compare annual costs for your existing tariff.

    Please be aware that if the OP were to confine their comparison search to the MSE CEC, they may be missing out on the cheapest available tariff.

    Whilst Fuse Energy typically offer very competitive fixed tariffs, their "exclusive tariffs" are often even better value. However, the MSE CEC has not to my knowledge ever offered a Fuse Energy "exclusive tariff", so details of these "exclusive tariffs" are never shown even as part of the MSE CEC "whole of market" results.

    Yes, it's hard to see everything that's available. As well as the CEC you have to try several approved comparison sites, taking care to click on the 'whole market' option which is often well hidden.  Finally you should check with all the suppliers directly.
    Then repeat the whole process for separate gas and electriciy suppliers.
    Phew !
