Better Lambeth - Council statements and updates - Housing and planning

Lambeth householders who signed up to the Big London Energy Switch in October 2015 have saved an average of £230. Another auction is planned in February 2016 and you could be part of this.

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.

Key Dates for the next auction:

1 February 2016 – is the deadline for registration. You can register easily at www.BigLondonEnergySwitch.org.uk, or call 020 7926 1000.

2 February 2016 – the auction starts and the company offering the cheapest deal on the day gets to offer you a new contract.

12 February 2016 – a personal offer letter will be sent to you showing if you can save money. Only then do you have to decide whether you wish to accept the offer.

15 March 2016– if you do wish to accept the offer, your contract must be returned by this date.

You can find out more about the Big London Energy Switch at www.BigLondonEnergySwitch.org.uk.
