Roll up; roll up for cheaper fuel bills!
Norwich Big Switch and Save launched on the 21st January, the highly successful scheme will open for registration for eight weeks.
It is a simple idea. Get enough households to band together. Ask the energy companies for the best deal they can offer the group as a whole. And move, en masse, to the one provider with the lowest price It’s an easy way for people to engage in the energy market. You have a trusted third party (Norwich City Council) who’s actually doing all the leg work and making it simpler. They go out and carry out an auction and hopefully get the best possible price for the consumers involved During the first tranche, a total of 1,768 households signed up. Two thirds were offered a better deal than their current one, with the average saving being £165 for the year (the top saving was a whopping £500). It is estimated city homes saved approximately £54,000 as a result.
The website opened on the 21st January, all you need to do is provide basic information of yourself and your gas and electricity usage. So get your bills at hand and go to www.norwich.gov.uk and press the Big Switch and Save link
