“Turning non-switchers into savvy switchers” - Davey

The Government is taking additional steps to make sure the 84% of households who don’t switch can get the best deal.

The Government is taking additional steps to make sure the 84% of households who don’t switch can get the best deal, Ed Davey announced today. Switching energy suppliers could save households as much as £158 a year but only 16% switched between March 2012 and March 2013.

This builds on Ofgem’s reforms to create a simpler, clearer and fairer market for energy consumers, which Government is backing through the Energy Bill. These reforms will move people off poor-value “dead” tariffs, reduce the number of core tariffs to four per gas and electricity supplier, and make bills easier to understand.
