Compare Electricity and Gas in these States

Each energy provider is only able to sell energy in some regions, therefore the number of electricity and gas providers that are compared for you differs depending on where you live.

FAQ about switching electricity and gas providers
Here are some questions and answers about what happens after you've completed the comparison process and have chosen to change electricity and gas providers.
If you change your mind that's okay because
your new electricity and gas provider has to give you ten days of 'cooling-off' period,
that means you have ten days during which you can change your mind and stay with your current
energy provider.
No. You won't have to do that.
The delivery of actual energy to your house, via the pipes and wires, is done by your energy distributer (not by your energy retailer).
The distributor continues to supply electricity and gas to your premises
after you change to a different energy retailer.
The retailer issues your
electricity and gas bills, however, they buy the energy from the distributor and resell it to you. You can't purchase electricity and gas directly from the distributor,
you have to go through an energy retailer.
You can be sure that you won't experience an interruption to your electricity and gas supply when you switch retailers,
because you'll continue to use the same connection to the same distributor.
The 'paperwork' is all processed quite quickly,
usually in less than 24 hours.
However, the switchover can't go ahead until after
your old provider has sent you a final bill,
and they can't do that until they've taken a final meter reading.
So, it depends on
when your next meter reading be. It could take as long as three months.
Compare and Connect will sign you up with your
new energy provider, and will also tell
the current provider that you are switching away from them.
The switch to your new provider
will not happen immediately, because the current provider
will have to do a meter reading again, one final time.
and then send you a final bill.
The new provider only begins charging you from the date of the meter reading.
the energy distributor that supplies the energy to your house
continues to be the same one as before the switch.
No. Our service is free to you.
We will receive a commission from your
new electricity and gas provider.While our service is provided to you without charge, you may be subject to charges in relation to your current service, including exit fees. You should check this with your current supplier(s).

*Compare & Connect does not compare all plans in the market.Tips to reduce your electricity usage and lower your bills
Here is a list of easily implemented tips for reducing your expenditure on electricity
- A cheap alternative to an electric blanket is a hot water bottle.
- Use the clothes dryer less. Dry the clothes outside or alternatively, use an indoor clothing rack.
- Turn all appliances off at the power socket when they're not in use.
- Eliminate draughts. Prevent cold air or hot air blowing in or leaving through the gaps under doors and around windows through the use of gap seal tape and door snakes.
- Wear clothing that's appropriate for cold weather, instead of turning on the heater (jumper, booties, beanie, warm socks).
- Close the doors to rooms that aren't in use, so that you only have to heat or cool a smaller area.
- Minimise the use of air conditioning by opening the windows at night to allow the cool air in, and then shutting them in the morning thus keeping the hot air out.
- Minimise lighting by making use of the available natural light and replace older lights with energy efficient LED lighting.
- Prevent the sun over-heating rooms by closing curtains and blinds in rooms that the hot sun shines directly into.
