Billscutter and National Housing Federation team up to save millions money

May 29, 2012 - PRLog -- My Home Energy Switch is an exciting partnership between the National Housing Federation and Billscutter Ltd., which aims to put more money in the pockets of housing association tenants.

The My Home Energy Switch partnership will provide Housing Association tenants and staff with a free and impartial online or telephone fuel switching service that will help them save an average of £165 on their gas and electric bills. The service will be continuously updated with the latest tariff information so tenants will be encouraged to keep checking the website to ensure they are getting the best deals.

It is the aim of My Home Energy Switch to provide the easiest possible service. Users can compare suppliers and tariffs online and select the one which is right for them. Switching shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes. The new supplier will confirm the date of change direct with the customer with the process complete within around 4 weeks. There will never be any interruption to service and the only change the customer will notice is a little extra in their pocket. The process is completely secure and supported by a dedicated customer service team.

The National Housing Federation is the voice of affordable housing in England and represents the work of housing associations and campaigns for better housing. NHF members provide two and a half million homes for more than five million people and each year they invest in a diverse range of neighborhood projects that help create strong, vibrant communities.

Billscutter Ltd. is a leading energy switching company who as part of the Swansea based Save Britain Money group visit up to 10,000 households every week and help around 8,000 of them save money. The group mission of helping to increase the disposable income of consumers across the UK provides an excellent fit with the aims of the National Housing Federation.

My Home Energy Switch is actively encouraging all Housing Associations to promote this free service to their tenants and staff by producing a factsheet and leaflet. To find out more visit www.myhomeenergyswitch.org.uk

Notes for Editor:
Average savings for new movers are £123.25 per year.

The savings will be bigger if a tenant has a credit meter rather than a pay as you go meters.
