We compare the whole market on your usage, so you can weigh price, contract type and service in one place - and switch in minutes.
What to weigh up
Price & contract
Unit rate, standing charge, fixed vs variable and any exit fees.
Service
Customer reviews and complaint handling vary widely between suppliers.
Smart features
If you have an EV, heat pump or battery, check the smart and off-peak tariffs.
FAQs
Who is the cheapest supplier in 2026?
There is no single cheapest - it depends on region, usage and tariff type. Comparing the whole market on your usage is the reliable way to find yours.
Are smaller suppliers safe?
Yes - Ofgem's Supplier of Last Resort protects your supply and credit balance if a licensed supplier fails.
How often should I compare?
Around each quarterly cap change and when a fixed deal ends - with the July 2026 rise confirmed, now is a good time.
