A report
published by unravelit.com, a major provider of independent
information on domestic gas and electricity prices, states
that the prices of household gas has increased by an average
of 6% in the past year. The increase in the competition
and the aggressive selling has created a murky market where
it is becoming more difficult to notice these increases.
Comment: A couple of sites have been developed that
compare the prices, products and services of the electricity
and gas suppliers. Unravelit.com
provides Ofgem, the Gas and Electricity regulator with the
pricing information on all electricity and gas suppliers
across the country. It also provides a service to consumers
through its website, including a facility to compare products,
suppliers and savings as well as helping you apply online
for the services available. uSwitch.com
provides similar services on gas, electricity and mobile
phones.
