Moneysupermaket is geared towards the consumer rather than a business. From what i understand of business energy to save yourself money speak to a variety of suppliers and disucss rates and contracts with them. Typically you will agree fixed rates over a 1, 2, or 3 year period.

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and guess that currently your on out of contract rates which are around 40% higher than contracted rates and are this high for a reason - to encourage you to contact a supplier to negoitiate better rates.

The pro's to this is that you get cheaper rates for a guarenteed term. The cons however is that you will be tied to that supplier till the end of your contract with them.

As for going green, some suppliers do offer green business tariffs but this is a conversation you will have to have with them. So i'd suggest taking an hour or so and calling around the suppliers and seeing what they can offer you. You could also try playing one off against another and seeing if they can beat another providers rates. They mat be able to do this i'm unsure in the business market. I know we can't for domestic consumers.

Good luck!

Just to let you know that business energy customers can save on their business gas and/or business electricity bills through moneysupermarket.com by calling 0844 482 3548.

We've teamed up with a leading business energy broker to help you save £££s on your business energy bills.

Hope this helps.

Hmm.. gotta wonder how much their bunging MS for you recommending one supplier. (directly by telephone no less, so so no written comarison)

I'll take a side of chips for the fish I can smell.

mynewt - sorry to see you view this so suspiciously. If you have anything to support your concerns or any business energy customers have experienced any issues using this service then I'd be more than happy to hear your feedback.

Also, to clarify, we've teamed up with the UK's largest business energy broker who compares a large range of business energy tariffs. It is NOT, as you say, MSM teaming up with one "supplier".

This service has been implemented to help MSM business customers save on their business energy bills as our current in-house comparison purely looks at the domestic user.

To re-iterate, I'm confident this service will help save customers £££s on their business energy bills and therefore wanted to let forum users know if they hadn't seen the link on the Energy homepage.

No worries. I thought that might be the case. This is a deal with a "broker" meaning the comparison is carried out over a large range of business energy deals. It is only by doing this that MSM can ensure we help business energy customers get the best possible deal for the business gas or business electricity bills.
