Join Big Community Switch and save on your energy bills in 2024

Registration is open for the Big Community Switch 2024 - and Stockton-on-Tees residents are being urged to sign up to fix their energy tariff!

The Big Community Switch is a safe and simple collective energy switching scheme for our residents to try and save money on their fuel bills next year.

Switching means you can fix your tariff and you no longer have to waste precious time comparing prices as it's all done for you! It's free to do and there is no obligation to switch.

Residents across the Borough have until Monday 8 January 2024 to register for the next online auction the following day, when a variety of energy companies will compete to become the energy supplier for customers that sign up for the switch.

The more customers signed up and registered the more competitive the deal is likely to be.

Once registered, you will receive your personal offer from 22 January, highlighting how much you might save compared to your current energy tariff. If you choose to accept this no obligation offer you will need to follow online instructions to make the switch by 8 March.

Councillor Clare Gamble, the Council's Cabinet Member for Environment and Transport, said: "We understand that many households are frustrated with continuing high energy costs and have struggled over the last two years. That's why we're committed to seeking better deals working in partnership with Big Community Switch and iChoosr.

"But we also understand that switching energy suppliers can be a daunting task, especially in the current market conditions. Big Community Switch helps demystify this process for households and offers guidance and support every step of the way.

"Don't wait any longer to see if you can start saving on your energy bills. Join the Big Community Switch today and join the thousands of people who have taken control of their energy costs."

The scheme is open to anyone who is responsible for paying their energy bill.

If you, or someone you know, can't access the form you can still register by calling the Big Community Switch registration line on 0800 048 8439. Lines are open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5:30pm, please have a recent energy bill to hand.
