The Big London Energy Switch is back!

The Big London Energy Switch includes a number of London authorities working together to get a better deal on electricity and gas for residents through an auction process. The company offering the cheapest deal on the day gets to offer you a new contract. However, there is no obligation to sign up to a new provider, so you have nothing to lose by registering.

Following the auction we will send you your personal offer. Based on this offer you decide whether you wish to switch.  Should you wish to switch we will request some additional information such as your date of birth and registration status, and upon your acceptance – your personal and energy details will be sent to the new supplier for processing.  Your new energy supplier will then send you a letter explaining the details of your new contract.  Your gas and electricity supply will not be interrupted at any time.

Key Dates for the next auction:

12 October 2015 – deadline for registration.

13 October 2015 – auction starts and the company offering the cheapest deal on the day gets to offer you a new contract.

26 October 2015 – personal offer letter sent to you showing if you will save money. Only then do you have to decide whether you wish to accept the offer.

24 November 2015 – if you wish to accept the offer, your contract must be returned by this date.
