A gas prices comparison should provide you with the cheapest available prices. However, I've tested out the various comparison services and rather surprisingly they didn't always give me the same results.
Below are a few tips to help ensure you get the most accurate gas prices comparison.
Whether you use Uswitch, Energy Helpline or MoneySupermarket, they all generally require the same information. I would always recommend you have a recent bill to hand.
Most gas bills that you receive are estimated bills and as these can vary wildly from reality, I would advise you take extreme care. I would recommend phoning your gas company with an update reading at the end of your billing period and then base your gas prices comparison on this.
Most of the information the gas prices comparison sites ask for is simple like address, postcode, supplier etc and then you are usually asked to provide either how much you spend each month or how much gas you use. As the price you pay is usually based on the estimates I would always enter how much gas I have used.
To get this figure simply take the closing meter reading from your new bill based on your actual reading and deduct the previous actual meter reading you have. You then need this by the number of months between these readings to give you a monthly figure.
You need to also make sure you enter the exact tariff you are on into the gas prices comparison service - if they don't have it don't use them as they won't give you an accurate reading.
Following these steps should help to ensure you get offered the best price for your needs.
As I said earlier, I did a test of the three major comparison services just to make sure that they all offered me the same tariff. And what surprised me is that they didn't. You can see what happened and which gas prices comparison service offered me the best price at http://www.paulsblogspot.com/cheapgaselectricityprices.html
If you don't fancy having to keep switching your gas supplier to stay on a cheap tariff then the Utility Warehouse Discount Club could be what you are looking for. They guarantee that the prices you pay will always be competitive with the big six suppliers.
