Switching is simply the process of changing the company that sells or provides electricity and/or gas to your home. Thanks to the introduction of retail competition across most Australian States and Territories, over eight in ten Australians can now select and switch their gas and electricity supplier.
switching electricity
When it comes to electricity, everyone is different. Perhaps you always pay your bills on time and want to be rewarded for doing so? Or you might want to reduce your carbon emissions without it costing the earth? Or perhaps you simply want a better level of service from your electricity provider?
compare and select providers
At Switchwise it's all about choice. We know first-hand how complicated electricity pricing can be. Switchwise puts you back in control so you can make a more informed choice about your household power supply.
Whilst the electricity that powers your home is the same no matter which company you choose as your provider, electricity suppliers were not created equal - they all offer different energy plans to suit a variety of different household needs. In some states of Australia there are at least ten electricity providers that might supply your suburb. The deregulation of the energy industry has created a unique and excellent opportunity for consumers to compare the range of deals on offer and to seek out both better pricing and service.
how we make life easier
Unfortunately, sometimes there can be too much choice, making it difficult for you to make a good decision. Before Switchwise you would have had to do all the legwork yourself; identifying a range of alternative electricity providers that supplied your suburb, their rates and contract terms. Then you would have had to put that information into a spreadsheet with your current supplier's pricing and discounts together with your usage information to work out if cheaper offers might have been available. Could you really be bothered with all that?
Switchwise has already done the work for you. We can show you a variety of energy plans on offer from several suppliers all in the one place.
Once you have found a suitable electricity plan for your house with one of our panel suppliers you can complete our simple online application and Switchwise will arrange the switch with your chosen supplier.
