SIMPLY SWITCH ENERGY SUPPLIER SURVEY 2020

6/10 HOUSEHOLDS HAVEN'T SWITCHED ENERGY SUPPLIER IN THE LAST YEAR

We conducted a survey of 1,000 energy customers



Just 41% had switched to a new supplier in the last 12 months.

23% between 1-2 years ago.

25% hadn't switched in the last 2 years

10% have never switched

Households who haven't switched within the last year are likely to be on
standard variable tariffs (SVTs), which means they're most likely paying more
than they need to.

THE BIG SIX

WHO ARE THE BIG SIX?

The Big Six are the UK's biggest energy suppliers, they are:

 * British Gas
 * EDF
 * e.on
 * npower
 * Scottish Power
 * SSE

69% of customers get their energy from one of the Big Six.

British Gas are the most popular, serving 29% of the people we spoke to.




WHO IS THE BEST ENERGY SUPPLIER?

We asked respondents to rate their supplier across four different criteria.
Suppliers are ranked in order, top to bottom.

Supplier Value for Money Customer Service Complaints Handling Bill Accuracy

GAS & ELECTRICITY PRICE COMPARISON – HINTS, TIPS, AND HELPFUL INFORMATION

Save money on your energy bills

Utility bills make up a sizeable chunk of household expenditure for most of us.
With gas and electricity prices rising year-on-year, it’s more important than
ever to find a way to cut costs down.

By far the quickest, easiest, and most effective way to reduce what you spend is
to switch to a new, cheaper tariff (or tariffs). Use our comparison engine to
find out how much you could save by switching to a new supplier today – it’s
free, only takes a few minutes, and you’re not committing to anything by
comparing. Best of all, you could save hundreds of pounds off your annual bill!


HOW DOES SIMPLY SWITCH’S ENERGY COMPARISON SERVICE WORK?

 1. Enter your postcode so that we can make sure we’re showing you accurate
    prices
 2. Let us know a bit about your current tariff including who your provider is
    and how much you’re paying/using
 3. Choose a new tariff from the list we generate for you
 4. Follow the simple steps, relax and enjoy the savings as us, your old
    supplier and your new one all handle the switch without you having to lift a
    finger


TYPES OF GAS AND ELECTRICITY TARIFF: SINGLE FUEL OR DUAL FUEL

Most newer-build properties nowadays only use electricity, so owners don’t have
to worry about getting a gas tariff at all. But those of us with both gas and
electricity supplied to our home need to make a decision: get both fuels from
the same supplier, on the same tariff, or take out two separate contracts.

Taking out a dual fuel tariff (with both gas and electricity from the same
supplier) is definitely the simpler option. You’ll only have to pay one bill,
and deal with one supplier – making your life a lot easier. And most of the time
you’ll get a better price when you get both fuels together. This isn’t always
the case though. If price really is the most important factor for you when
choosing a new deal, then it’s worth comparing dual fuel tariff prices in your
area with the price of two separate single fuel tariffs just to make sure.


TYPES OF GAS AND ELECTRICITY TARIFF: FIXED RATE OR VARIABLE RATE

The next choice you’ll need to make concerns how the price of your tariff is
calculated. You’ve got two basic options:

FIXED RATE ENERGY TARIFFS

With a fixed rate tariff, the price per unit of your gas or electricity is set
in stone for a set period (typically between one and two years). Of course the
actual amount you pay will depend on your usage, but you’ll be safe in the
knowledge that at least that’s the only variable. You’ll be safe from any price
hikes and while you also won’t benefit if prices drop, this doesn’t happen
particularly often anyway.

Generally speaking, fixed rate tariffs mean lower prices, as well as security
and predictability, and so are almost always the better option – though this
isn’t always the case! Some suppliers, like Bulb, only offer a variable rate
tariff, but it’s still cheaper than many other deals on the market – including
many fixed rate deals.

VARIABLE RATE ENERGY TARIFFS

The price per unit on a variable rate tariff will fluctuate in line with
wholesale energy prices, as well as any changes in running costs for suppliers
which might result from policy changes, for example. In practise, suppliers tend
to be much more inclined to pass on price rises than any price drops to
customers.

The most common variable rate tariffs are default, or standard variable tariffs
(SVTs). These tariffs, which customers end up on after fixed rate terms end, or
when they move into a new property, are responsible for a significant portion of
overcharging in the energy market. SVTs are invariably the most expensive
tariffs offered by any supplier, and yet a large percentage of customers are
signed up to them.

You could be on a standard variable tariff if:

 * You’ve just moved into a new property
 * You haven’t switched to a new supplier for over a year
 * You can’t remember when you last set up a tariff


WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR WHEN COMPARING ENERGY SUPPLIERS

If you’ve never switched before, it can seem a bit overwhelming. With a lot of
different tariffs from a lot of different suppliers to choose from, and
seemingly lot of information to take in, it can be tempting to just leave it and
stick with what you’ve got.

But it really is a lot more straightforward than you might imagine. Here are a
few key things to look out for when you do start comparing gas and electricity
tariffs:

TARIFF COMPARISON RATE

Since everyone’s usage is a bit different, it can be hard to properly judge the
cost of any given tariff. Ofgem (the energy regulator) now make every supplier
show what’s known as a Tariff Comparison Rate, or TCR, for each tariff. This
gives you an estimated cost per unit (per kwh, or kilowatt hour) that includes
any extra charges based on average usage so that you can easily compare one deal
with another. The price indicated by the TCR is not final (as it will ultimately
depend on your usage) but it will be uniform across different tariffs, making
the comparison itself simple.

EXIT FEES

If you’re on a fixed rate deal, and you choose to leave it before the set term
is up, you’ll almost certainly be liable to pay exit fees to the supplier. The
value will vary from supplier to supplier, but will typically be around £30 per
fuel. Bear this in mind when you are comparing prices – if your prospective
annual saving with a new supplier is £50, but you’re paying £60 to leave your
current deal, then it’s probably worth waiting until the end of the term.

If you’re on a variable rate tariff, then you won’t have to pay exit fees.
Additionally, some suppliers will offer to pay your exit fees for you if you
switch to them, so keep an eye out.

FUEL MIX – GREEN ENERGY SUPPLIERS

Climate change is a big issue nowadays. As such, a lot of customers are more and
more keen on reducing their carbon footprint, and opting for an energy supplier
who uses only or mostly renewable fuel sources is a great way to do this. Some
suppliers, such as Bulb, Co-operative Energy, and Ecotricity, offer completely
renewable energy.

Our website also has a number of helpful guides that cover everything you need
to know about gas and electricity. These energy guides will answer all your
questions about switching energy supplier. They will also tell you all about how
to save money on gas and electricity in other ways, such as making your house
more energy efficient and using different types of thermostats.

WHY SHOULD I COMPARE ENERGY SUPPLIERS?

The biggest reason to compare energy suppliers is that doing so could result in
saving you a lot of money on your gas and electricity bills. It is completely
free to run an energy comparison and it only takes about five minutes. Here at
Simply Switch we offer a free and impartial comparison service that will show
you all the best deals around at the moment. We also show you all the customer
service ratings of each gas and electricity company. This means that you can see
how other customers have enjoyed their experience with that particular supplier.

WHO IS THE CHEAPEST GAS AND ELECTRICITY SUPPLIER?

The cheapest gas and electricity supplier available to you will depend on your
location and your energy usage. This means that there is no one company that
offers the lowest rates to all people. What is more important is how well each
energy plan that you consider will fit into your lifestyle and your energy
demands. Here at Simply Switch we can show you all the best deals that are
suited to you. We do this by asking you for a little bit of information about
how much energy you normally use. This means that we can tailor the search to
find plans that specifically suit your needs.

IS IT DIFFICULT TO SWITCH ENERGY SUPPLIER?

Many people believe that switching energy supplier is a long and drawn out
process. This could not be further from the truth. Once you decide to switch
energy supplier through our website, we take care of the rest of the hassle for
you. We will contact your old supplier and let them know that you’ve decided to
switch. We will also contact the new, cheaper supplier that you have decided to
move to and let them know you’ll be coming aboard. We do all of this at no extra
cost to you. The energy companies pay us a small commission for each new client
that switches through us but none of this cost will be passed on to you.

IS IT CHEAPER TO GET MY GAS AND ELECTRICITY FROM ONE ENERGY SUPPLIER?

Many gas and electricity suppliers offer discounts for customers that purchase
both their forms of energy through them. These types of deals are known as dual
fuel deals and they can be a great way to save money on your gas and
electricity. However these deals aren’t always the cheapest, it often depends on
what type of energy user you are and what energy requirements you have. This
means that it is important for you to carry out a price comparison. If you do
this, then you’ll be better placed to find a plan that suits you and that can
also save you money on your gas and electricity supply.

WHAT IF I’M ON A PREPAYMENT METER?

Using a prepayment meter is usually not the cheapest way to pay for your gas and
electricity. Prepayment meters are typically used by people who have had
problems paying their energy bills in the past, who have been in high levels of
debt or by those who live in rental properties. But you can still save money on
your gas and electricity bills by doing a quick price comparison with us – many
suppliers offer cheap energy deals for those on prepayment meters. We can also
help to you to save money by switching to a cheaper tariff with a traditional
meter or smart meter.

WHAT IF I WANT TO FIND A GREEN ENERGY PLAN?

If you’re concerned about our damaging impact on the environment, you may be
thinking about switching to a green energy tariff. All the Big Six energy
suppliers now offer 100% renewable energy tariffs, and many smaller suppliers
exclusively offer green deals. And while they used to be more expensive than
your average energy deal, prices are a lot more competitive these days. Use our
price comparison service to get a list of green energy deals available to you
and see how you could save money as well as the environment.

WILL MY GAS AND ELECTRICITY BE CUT OFF IF I SWITCH?

In a word, no! Your gas and electricity will continue to run if you switch
suppliers using Simply Switch, so the only thing to consider is your potential
savings. The reason there is so little hassle to switching energy suppliers is
that the gas and electricity themselves come from the national grid, and their
route to you won't change if you switch suppliers. The only difference is the
payment recipient, so no need to stress about going a day without the kettle,
oven or TV!

CAN I SWITCH ENERGY SUPPLIERS AT ANY TIME?

If you're on a fixed term plan it's a little more complicated. You can switch
supplier during your contract, but you're likely to incur an exit fee. This can
be sizeable in some cases and may negate the savings you'd make by switching!
It's worth checking with your supplier to work out your exit fees. An exception
to this is if you are in the final 49 days of your contract. Ofgem rules that
within this window suppliers can't charge exit fees, so this is the best time to
switch supplier.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SWITCH ENERGY SUPPLIERS?

The vast majority of energy suppliers are signed up to the Energy Switch
Guarantee which ensures that your energy changeover will take no more than 21
days. This includes all of the “big six” energy suppliers.

At the other end of the timeframe, legally suppliers are obligated to allow a
14-day cooling-off period from the signing of any new contract. In practice this
means they will usually wait until this 14-day period is up before beginning the
switch.

So you can generally bank on a switch being over between 14 and 21 days from
signing a new contract. It could take longer in some unusual circumstances such
as when suppliers have difficulty obtaining meter readings or if you've had debt
problems with previous suppliers.
