Great news for residents looking to save money this summer as Warwickshire Switch and Save returns.

Warwickshire residents have already saved well over £1.73 million on their gas and electricity bills and are now encouraged to join the latest Big Community Switch to see how much they could save.

Warwickshire County Council has opened its 11th reverse auction in an effort to help its residents save money on their energy bills.

Using their collective bargaining power, residents can increase competition amongst energy providers and secure better energy prices. The Council is continuing its partnership with iChoosr to use their expertise in negotiating with energy providers to secure the best prices for residents.

Residents can register their interest in the scheme before the auction begins.

Those who have registered their interest, will then be given a personalised offer showing how much they could be save by switching. If the householder is happy with the deal they can then proceed and switch suppliers totally free of charge.

Over 35,000 households in Warwickshire have registered with the scheme and 8,018 have made the switch and saved a combined amount of £1,73 million on their gas and electricity bills as the scheme continues in its popularity.

Peter Butlin, Deputy Leader of Warwickshire County Council and Portfolio Holder for Finance and Property, said: “Some residents will be paying too much, particularly if they haven’t switched supplier for a while, so I’d encourage everyone not to delay and sign up now with the scheme to see if they could save.

“In the last reverse auction, many of those who registered were eligible for a saving on their energy bills.”

The amount of money that can be saved will vary depending on the customer’s current tariff, payment method, consumption and the winning bid. There is no guarantee that an offer will be the cheapest, but the model aims to ensure the majority of participants are offered lower annual energy bills than they are on currently.

Residents who want to take part in this fantastic initiative should visit: https://bigcommunityswitch.co.uk/warwickshire/landing and have their latest energy bill to hand as they will need the details during the registration process.

Registration opens on Tuesday 3 August 2021. The auction takes place on 12 October 2021, with individual offers posted or emailed to residents from Monday 25 October 2021. Registration closes Tuesday 23 November.
