Managing The Energy Bills

Energy bills are rocketing and every penny saved counts. Here are a few points that might be of benefit:

Consider Switching

In Northern Ireland, there are five electricity providers and there are twenty different tariffs.

Switching is still beneficial.

Be Vigilant

Being vigilant seems to be the general advice. There are lots of price comparison tools that you can make use of to save money.

Talk To Your Energy Provider

Talk to the energy provider to explain that you are struggling. They have a code of practice and need to be able to accommodate vulnerable customers.

Maximise Your Benefits

Make sure that you are getting all the benefits that you are entitled to. If you are unsure, its worth giving Citizens Information, INOU or other advice agency for clarification.
