Best way to switch to Scottish Power

I've pretty much decided to switch to Scottish Power (from Southern Electric due to their price cap until 2011) but I'm now looking at the best way to switch to get the maximum savings.

If I go through moneysupermarket I get £30 but would I also received £20 through Quidco as well as the original £30 for switching?

If I go through go through from Quidco to the Scottish Power site it says I'd receive £62 for a successful Dual Fuel Sale - would this also mean switching from another company?

Any help would be much appreciated.

    You can't get moneysupernmartking AND Quidco - it doesn't tend to track.

    However, direct through Quidco, the £62 is a better offer and we got our cashback no problem

    I switched yesterday after searching the comparison sites for best deal then just went wholely through quidco for scottish power duel fuel direct debit online rate capped, till 2011 & now getting for the same rate more or less that I have been with Atlantic . That was based on north west uk rates they do alter depending which area you live. Quidco tracked and gave me £75 by just solely going through them. You need to make sure that the comparison sites are not still tracking your enquiry from your previous enquiry by closing your original enquiry, and starting fresh with quidco.
    This gave me so much peace of mind I may be paying slightly more now but can now rest easy till 2011.
