The cheapest will depend on your usage so a comparison site like Uswitch is best. Unless you just want people's opinions of the suppliers they use. It won't get you the best deal though.

I was with Scottish Power for a few years, but the fixed pricing ended at the end of February. For what it's worth, I ran my usage figures through a few comparison websites, and British Gas came out the cheapest for me, so I am in the process of switching over to them.

 

Check out moneysavingexpert.com for switching tips. Different comparison sites offer various incentives e.g. £40 money back, things like that. Once you have found suppliers which factor very highly in the comparison sites, it's worth looking to see if various money back sites (such as quidco, topcashback) also offer incentives to switch.

 

Go with cheapest supplier, using site with the best incentive!

I got 80 quid cash back after joining EDF through the Quidco website, just had to wait a couple of months after moving to them before getting the cash back. Seem to remember they had similar offers for NPower and EON at the time but EDF worked out cheapest before the cash back.

Ah Quidco - keep meaning to use that site myself and was also going to say Moneysaving expert website is really useful - i need to change our suppliers too

Used to be with N Power but changed supplier to First Utility about three years ago. No problems whatsoever.

I'm with first utility. Don't ever use Scottish Power would be my advice.

I changed to OVO about a year ago, no problems, they are a lot cheaper than British Gas.
