Do you want to save money on your fuel bills? Sign up to our successful collective switching scheme that aims to help save you time and money on your fuel bills by finding you a better deal.
You could save on average around £320 a year if you sign up to the scheme.
Since collective switching started in August 2013 it has saved residents a total of over £100,000 on their energy bills.
Residents who have benefited from the scheme already highlight the great savings to be made and how simple the switching process is.
Make sure you don’t miss out on these fantastic savings. Sign up to the free collective switching scheme and change your energy supplier.
Around 97 per cent of households that have registered for the scheme benefited from savings.
If you want to save money on your fuel bills, register online at www.northlincs.gov.uk/collective-switching.
It is free to register on the scheme. Registration is open now and you have until 22 May 2017 to sign up. The auction will take place on 23 May 2017. Offers will be issued on 5 June 2017.
Collective switching offers households the opportunity to sign-up to a scheme that allows the council to enter an auction with energy companies on their behalf, to secure a discounted energy price.
The scheme is run in partnership with iChoosr Ltd, the UK’s leading provider of collective switching.
