How we are paid
We don't charge you a fee for quotes. If you choose a contract through us, the supplier pays us a commission that is built into your unit rate.
For example, if your unit price is 30.00p per kWh and our uplift is 1p, you would pay 31.00p per kWh, and the supplier passes that 1p to us.

Common questions
A few of the questions we're asked most. See all of them on our FAQs page.
What is a supply number?
A supply number is a specific piece of information that relates to your site which identifies your address, meter type, and helps to get accurate quotations. This can be obtained from your current supplier or alternatively it is generally located on a bill.
How long does it take to transfer?
For customers out of contract, an application generally takes between 4–6 weeks as per the standard transfer process. Please be advised that further delays may occur if your supplier objects to the transfer. If you are still in a contract, supply will commence a day after your contract expires.
Will I be charged a termination fee?
A new contract can be agreed 90–180 days prior to the end of your existing one. If you opt to leave before this, you may be subject to an early termination fee. The amount will depend on the length of time you have left on your current contract.
You are under no obligation to pay such fees, as you will be provided with the option to remain with your current supplier. If there is no contract in place, there may be no termination fee. We strongly advise that you correspond with your standing supplier for clarification on the matter. Please note the early termination facility is not offered by all suppliers.
What if my business has a domestic meter?
Many businesses do often have a domestic meter. This can easily be identified by the supply number on your bill, as it will begin either 01 or 02. If you have a domestic meter and you are a business, we can still transfer you onto a business contract, subject to proof of business being provided.
