Compare Electricity Deals With Money Pug

  • Money Pug can help you get the best prices for all the energy that you use in your home. Visit the utilities page and you can learn more about how to save money on your gas and electricity by choosing a package that supplies both to your home. But not all of us have a gas supply, and those of us who do don’t always want to get it from the same supplier as our electricity. Here at Money Pug, combined gas and electricity packages are not all you can compare. On this website, you can also compare deals for just your electricity. We help demystify the process of choosing the right electricity supplier, and make it easier than ever to switch to get the best possible deal.

Why Might I Want to Look For A New Electricity Supplier

You might want to look for an electricity supplier if you are about to, or have just, moved house. Moving can be a complicated business and the last thing that you want to worry about it making sure you are getting the best deal for your electricity supply. But spending just a few moments between cleaning, unpacking and all the other jobs to check out Money Pug’s handy listings of electricity suppliers could pay off. You could end up saving a lot of money on your new home’s bills.

You don’t need to be moving home to look into switching supplier. More and more people are waking up to the idea that we are the customers and we should be in charge. You don’t have to put up with over-charging, poor customer service or other problems with your supply. If your current supplier is not up to snuff, you might want to kick them to the curb. Money Pug helps put the power firmly back in your hands – and helps make sure you get the very best prices for the power that comes through your sockets and powers your lights and other things around your home.

Another reason that many people are choosing to switch electricity supplier is that they would like to go green. Choosing a green energy package is a good choice for the environment, and though green energy can cost a little more, the difference might be less than you think. Many electricity suppliers now offer electricity that has been generated with renewable sources like solar, wind, hydroelectric and tidal power, so we can all keep the lights on without costing the earth. If you want to live in a way that is ethical, sustainable and eco-friendly then choosing a deal which offers at least a percentage of green power could be a great way to go. When you use Money Pug, you can easily compare green deals, so you are not paying over the odds to save the planet.


What Tariff Types Can I Choose For My Electricity Supply?

  • When you are looking at the quotes Money Pug lists for your electricity supply, you will find that a range of different tariffs are on offer. Tariff types can include:

Standard, Variable Tariffs (Prices can go up and down – usually this is the default option.)
Fixed Rate Electricity Deals (Prices remain static for the term of the agreement – usually a ear to 18 months. You will have to pay a fee if you want to switch before the end of the term as you will be locked in.)
Capped Electricity Deals (The price of electricity is capped at an agreed price and will not rise any higher. But this can be more expensive and again, you’ll be locked in.)
Online Electricity Deals (Opting to deal only online and without paper bills can often save you money on an electricity deal.)
Economy 7, Economy 10 or ‘time of use’ Electricity Deals (These deals allow you to take advantage of off-peak electricity, which is cheaper. But these only work if you change your habits to make the most of the cheaper pricing at certain times.)
Green Electricity Deals (The best option for an ethical, eco-friendly electricity supply. You’ll probably pay a little more – but perhaps less than you might imagine.)

If you are moving house, that is a good time to reassess your energy deal. If you already have a great deal then you can carry it over into your new home.

Will I get a smart meter if I switch gas and electricity?
The government set into motion the scheme to install smart meters to monitor energy usage and whether or not you will be offered one will depend on which company you go with.
