Small businesses are paying too much for energy (The Times)

Untitled design (17)

For too long, small companies have suffered at the hands of energy suppliers and unscrupulous brokers. The Competition & Markets Authority (CMA) estimates that small businesses pay about £500m more a year than they would if the market functioned properly.

Did you know, when a business comes to the end of a fixed-term contract, a supplier can switch it to a default tariff with little warning. This can mean an increase of 50% or more!

The message is simple. Don’t pay more than you have too!

We can help secure contracts of up to 5 years in length and help you enter into a contract up to 12 months in advance of your current contract end date. We can also conduct detailed analysis of water bills, going back up to 6 years to identify issues of over-charging or incorrect tariffs. In a rising market, these features can provide significant benefit in terms of budget certainty and peace of mind.

If you have an issue with your current contract, please get in touch with us.
