Don’t miss out on getting the cheapest energy prices for your home. Here are two great ways to score a better energy offer.
1. Check your bill or ask your energy company for their ‘best offer’.
Your energy bill tells you if there is a cheaper energy plan available for your home.
Look for the words ‘could you save money on another plan?’ on your energy bill.
This isn’t a marketing ploy by the company. It’s a requirement from the Victorian Government to make energy companies responsible for giving you the cheapest energy plan available, based on how you currently use electricity and gas.
Watch our video on getting the best offer.
It’s likely you’re not on your energy company’s cheapest plan at the moment (companies have dozens of different ones) so taking advantage of these fairer rules is an easy way to save money.
So, if your bill says you can save, call your energy company and ask for the ‘best offer’.
Our video shows you what to say and what to expect when you call your energy company to get the best offer.
