Another quarter, another energy price fluctuation to contend with – another change to make to your household budget.
But there are fixed deals available cheaper than the new price cap, according to Uswitch.
The average household can save £125 against October’s price cap with the cheapest 12-month fixed tariff, said Richard Neudegg, director of regulation at Uswitch.
At £1,592 typically per anum, it would also stave off another small increase expected in January, he said.
It is worth pointing out that it is in Uswitch’s favour for people to move, and a fixed tariff could always end up costing you more if the price cap were to drop below that fixed rate in April and June next year.
“Customers staring down the barrel of winter might question whether the current price cap system is really the best way to put real pricing pressure on suppliers,” said Mr Neudegg.
“It’s important for households looking for certainty to run a comparison to see what’s available to them and see personalised prices based on how much energy they are likely to use.”
Here are the top 10 fixed energy-only tariffs that could help you beat the price rise, according to Uswitch:
