5 minutes to save hundreds of dollars - you'd be crazy not to compare, switch and save!
Because you could save money on your electricity and gas bills or you can switch to green electricity! And all at no cost to you!
Competition which enables customers to easily switch their electricity and gas suppliers has been rolling out through Victoria from 2002, NSW from 2002, ACT and South Australia from 2003 and in Queensland from 2007.
We’ve initially launched our ShopAround online comparison service for electricity and gas companies in Victoria to offer Victorian householders and small business owners the best deals available from our participating suppliers. We’re also working hard with our partners to bring the same easy comparison and switching service to NSW, ACT, Queensland and South Australian customers as soon as possible!
Competition is generally good for the customer – and in this case it can be good for your home or business! It means that electricity suppliers and gas suppliers are now fighting for your business – and that means you might be able to get cheaper electricity, cheap gas supply, great renewable energy plans or just better add-on product features that are important to you like tickets to the footy or a magazine subscription.
Whether you want to try and find cheap electricity, find the best gas price, trim the household budget or control your small business costs, ShopAround will help take the pain out of comparing electricity and gas companies. If you decide to switch your electricity or gas supplier, ShopAround makes the whole switching process simple and free for you to use. To start comparing our best available deals simply click on compare Electricity and Gas.
But if you don’t want to switch you don’t have to. If you haven’t negotiated a new electricity or gas deal with your supplier since competition was introduced, here’s your options:
- Do nothing. Stay on your current contract. But if you remain with your original electricity or gas supplier you can’t negotiate your prices – they are set by government regulatory bodies in each state.
- Move to a negotiated market contract with your current energy supplier.
- Move to a negotiated market contract with a new electricity or gas supplier.
