Why clients stay

The work doesn't stop at the signature.

Most brokers vanish the moment the deal's done. We don't. When a bill looks wrong, a meter read's off, a supplier won't budge or you're taking on a new site, you don't deal with it alone — you tell us, and we take it up with the supplier on your behalf.

We're not a 24-hour call centre, and we won't pretend to be. But you're never left to fight it yourself. It's why most of our new clients come by referral — and why so many have stayed for years, contract after contract.

“I've worked with a lot of energy brokers and unfailingly they just want a quick transaction after a 5-minute call. Smart Energy sent us weekly pricing and shared market insights for months before we signed. How could we use anyone else.”

How we're paid

Paid the same, whoever you choose.

We earn a commission from the supplier, shown on every contract — and it's the same across the suppliers we compare. So we've no reason to steer you. The recommendation comes down to what suits you, not what pays us most.

What the industry allows
up to 3p /kWh
Often buried in your unit rate — and never shown to you.
What we charge
A fraction of that
Disclosed in writing on every contract, so you can always see exactly what we earn.
What we're not

Not a comparison site. Not a call centre.

A comparison site hands you a list and wishes you luck. A call centre reads a script and passes you around. We're neither.

Comparison sites

  • A list of prices, then you're on your own
  • No advice on timing or risk
  • Nobody to call when it goes wrong

Call centres

  • A script, and whoever picks up
  • “Sign today or miss out” pressure
  • A new account manager every time

How we work

We'll tell you when not to buy.

Nobody can predict the future, and we won't pretend to — or invent a deadline to rush you. We track the market daily so the timing works for you, not against you.

  1. 01

    No scare tactics.

    We never manufacture urgency. If “sign today or else” would suit us more than you, you won't hear it from us.

  2. 02

    We watch the market for you.

    Daily forward tracking and 160+ reports and counting — so a renewal lands at the right moment, not just the next one.

  3. 03

    Your interest first — even if it costs us.

    Sometimes the honest answer is “not yet”. We'd rather wait for the right deal than put you on the wrong one today.

Our track record

Doing it the same way since 2014.

Through COVID, supplier failures, record wholesale prices and the energy crisis, we've kept doing business the same way: honest advice, long-term relationships, and support when clients need it. A handful of clients have been with us since we started — contract after contract.
