Finding the best deal in Glasgow
- Check your current rate — look at the unit rate (p/kWh) and standing charge on your latest bill.
- Compare fixed vs variable — fixed deals lock in your price, variable follow the price cap.
- Look at the whole price, not just the headline rate. Standing charges add up.
- Watch exit fees — typically £30–£60 per fuel for fixed tariffs.
- Switch online — the process takes about 5 days and your supply is never interrupted.
