Switching energy suppliers
Ofgem (The Office of Gas and Electricity Markets – which is a non-ministerial government department and an independent National Regulatory Authority) have approved many online price comparison sites that are a good place to look when comparing energy tariffs and supplier deals.
These independent websites operate in accordance with Ofgem’s code of practice, the 'Confidence Code'.

Our ‘Better Homes, Better Health’ scheme may be able to provide advice to help find out the best electricity tariff / arrangement for your property (if you meet the eligible criteria) – you can make a self-referral for a home visit by a trained energy advisor.
To make sure you get the best deal, you’ll need to know:
- The name of your current supplier.
- The name of your current tariff, usually found on your bill.
- The amount of energy you use.
- How you currently pay, and would like to pay with a new supplier.
- Your postcode.
