If you are trying to compare electricity prices there a few things that are worth watching out for to make sure you’re not getting ripped off. So when you are looking to compare, be wise and switch with Energy Quotes.

• Have a look at the back of your bill and compare electricity prices between peak, service charge, and off peak if you have it. Chances are they aren’t similar, so when comparing prices, focus on the one that is costing you the most. In other words, saving 10% on a $200 peak charge saves more than %15 on a $60 service to property charge.
• Comparing energy companies can be difficult and tedious, but there are several comparison companies and aggregator sites that can help you. Spending five minutes online can help you understand what you need to do. But please don’t be fooled by tricky sales techniques and remember to compare apples with apples.
• Signing up to someone with a high early termination fee, especially if on a long-term contract. On the bright side, every contract has to have a ten day cooling off period, so if you think you made a mistake, you can still cancel, the details are on the paperwork.
• Signing up to someone knocking on your door with the “deal of a lifetime.” I kid you not, that’s actually what one of them called it. Turns out it wasn’t. Most power companies now employ door-knockers and the one thing to be aware of is that they aren’t doing an electricity price comparison; they are selling their particular company.
• Thinking the electricity will be cut off. It won’t be and doesn’t need to be, so don’t call the retailer you are with now to cut it off, the new company will organise everything for you.

Remember when comparing Energy providers if you’re dealing with a broker or aggregator that only deals with one provider be very wary. If they aren’t willing or cannot sign you up to more than one retailer question the information you’re receiving. Energy Quotes will be your one stop shop for energy comparison. Energy Quotes will not change your provider or recommend you do if we cannot save you money. Energy Quotes Fast, Free and Easy
