It's now easy to compare, switch and save!

ShopAround.com.au has today launched a new free service which helps Victorian households compare great electricity and gas deals. By taking just 5 minutes to enter a few details, householders will now be able to do an easy energy comparison and see what deals are available through ShopAround.com.au’s participating suppliers. Whether consumers are just looking for an easy way to compare electricity companies or gas prices, or find cheap energy, electricity or gas or find great renewable energy deals ShopAround.com.au's new service can help.

The founders of ShopAround.com.au have been developing the website for 18 months and have spent that time focused on making the energy comparison and switching process as easy as possible for the consumer. They have also been promoting the new service to energy industry insiders.

The online energy comparison service which easily allows consumers to compare electricity or gas costs and prices from participating suppliers and then switch to their chosen supplier online is new to the Australian market. David Power, Director of ShopAround.com.au, said that “We hope to offer consumers a simple way to research the best energy deal. Up until now, if householders wanted to see whether they could save money on energy and compare energy suppliers, it could take days of phoning around – and even then, once you have all the information in front of you, the structure of the tariffs and charges is very complicated making it difficult to compare energy deals. Our service does all the hard work for you – all the householder has to do is take 5 minutes to enter some energy consumption details and then pick the best energy deal for them whether they're looking for cheap energy or renewable energy!”

ShopAround.com.au puts the power of choice in the hands of consumers. Users of the site can choose to compare gas and electricity deals by Supplier, Price or by the renewable energy Green Energy accreditation ranking. We make it easy to compare electricity and gas costs and prices.

ShopAround.com.au will soon be launching the service in South Australia, NSW, the ACT and Queensland. The energy markets in Tasmania, Western Australia and the Northern Territory are not yet open to competition.
