Should You Switch Away from Scottish Power?
Five common situations: and what Switch recommends for each.
On Scottish Power SVT for 12+ months
Compare now, strong case to switch. You're on the cap maximum. Fixed deals may save £100 to £300/year.
In final 49 days of fixed deal
Compare and switch, no exit fee. Ofgem waives fees in this window. Don't roll onto the SVT by default.
Mid-contract, 50+ days remaining
Calculate net saving after £50/fuel exit fee. If saving exceeds £100 total exit fee, year-one saving is still positive.
On Cap Tracker, happy with service
Worth comparing, other suppliers may offer lower fixed rates or zero exit fees that beat the tracker's slight discount.
