A recent independent survey commissioned by uSwitch tried to get to the bottom of 'the switching state of mind', and found that many people still believed the 'myths' about switching energy, such as being charged twice or having to have your meter replaced.

If you want to get the most accurate comparison possible, try to identify your annual consumption in kWh. This should be on your bill, but can sometimes be tricky to find.
