Hello,
we have now been living in our newly built house for six months, and the electricity and gas consumption is starting to stabilize, making it easier to estimate future usage.
After moving in, we initially ended up with the expensive default energy supplier tariff from eon-Avacon. Now, for the first time, I am seriously considering switching. My preliminary research shows that there is significant potential to save money.
Is it really as simple as the internet (well-known comparison websites, etc.) makes it seem?
I’m sure some of you switch providers regularly (annually?). What do you pay attention to when doing so? Does the transition go smoothly? And what are your thoughts on green energy tariffs?

There must be some of you who switch regularly (every year?). What do you pay attention to when doing so? Does the transition work smoothly? And what are your thoughts on green electricity tariffs?Every year the new contract comes up. It takes about 5 minutes to switch providers. I don’t really care about the transition, since if not, the default supplier automatically steps in. I’m indifferent to green electricity, but the prices are the same as the “normal” tariffs. I’ve now had green electricity for two years and nothing has happened to my appliances so far.S

E.ON increased their prices on March 1st, but if I understand correctly, it is usually possible to leave the basic supply tariff quickly without a price increase, right (2 weeks’ notice)?
So I am looking for a suitable new low-cost tariff on a comparison website, preferably with a 12-month contract period and a 12-month price guarantee. What are the usual cancellation notice periods for these plans?

What are the usual cancellation notice periods in such cases?Generally between four and six weeks. A comparison website like C...24 will also remind you that you need to cancel your current contract (or sign a new one, and the new provider takes care of everything).P
pffreestyler19 Mar 2020 11:42We also switch every year. The current contract started on 17.07.
Should I have the new provider cancel the old contract by 01.07 (July 1) or by 01.08 (August 1)?
