How our guides are written
Our guides are written to be accurate, practical and free of jargon. Here is how we put them together and keep them up to date.
Who writes them
Guides are written and reviewed by Ben Metcalfe, who founded and ran a UK business energy brokerage.
How we check facts
- Rules and thresholds are checked against primary sources such as Ofgem, HMRC, Elexon and Xoserve, which are listed at the end of each guide.
- Where rules differ for microbusinesses and larger businesses, we say so.
- We don't publish live prices or savings figures. Any numbers in worked examples are clearly marked as illustrative.
Keeping guides current
Each guide shows when it was last updated. We review guides when rules change and at least once a year.
Independence
We may receive a fee from our broker partner for introductions. That doesn't change what our guides say. See how we're paid.
Spotted a mistake?
Please tell us and we'll check and correct it.
We introduce enquiries to an energy broker partner and may receive a fee. We're not a supplier and don't give whole-of-market advice. How we're paid
Your next energy contract deserves a closer look.
