Energy

Know what you pay for energy, and when your tariff ends

Gas and electricity are among the largest household bills you can change. Wisemium reads your bill, keeps the tariff and the end of any fixed term on record, and shows you the date that matters before it arrives. When you want to compare, its energy switch shows tariffs for your address. No account is needed to start.

What happens around the end of a fix

  1. 49 days before

    The window opens

    From here you can switch tariff or supplier without paying to leave.

  2. 42 to 49 days before

    Your supplier writes

    The end date, what you will pay if you do nothing, and the other tariffs it can offer you.

  3. Before the end date

    You decide

    Stay, fix again or switch. Compare unit rates and standing charges on your own annual use in kWh.

  4. The end date

    Nothing switches off

    If you have not chosen, you move to the standard variable tariff. It has no exit fee, so you can still leave at any time.

Read the bill you already have

Give Wisemium an energy bill and it reads the supplier, the tariff name, the unit rates, the standing charges and, where the bill prints it, the date a fixed tariff ends. Anything it cannot read is left for you to confirm, never guessed.

Keep the end of your fix where you will see it

A fixed tariff ends on a date your supplier tells you about once. Wisemium keeps that date with the tariff, so the weeks when you can change without an exit fee arrive as something you expected.

Gas and electricity, even from two suppliers

One address can have two suppliers, two tariffs and two end dates. Wisemium keeps them as two items, each with its own bill and its own date.

Compare when you are ready

When you want to see what else you could pay, Wisemium’s energy switch shows tariffs for your address. It is run with our partner MyUtilityGenius, opens in a new tab, and changes nothing unless you choose to switch.

Moving home

A new home usually starts on its supplier’s default rate, which nobody chose. Take a meter reading on the day you move in and the day you move out, tell both suppliers, and keep the first bill. Energy when you move house goes through it step by step, and Moving home keeps energy with the rest of the move.

What Wisemium does not do

Wisemium does not supply gas or electricity. Your supplier bills you and remains responsible for your supply.

It does not switch you without your say. A switch only happens if you choose a tariff and complete it.

It does not promise a saving. Whether another tariff costs less depends on your own use, your address and the tariffs available on the day.
