New UK Energy Tariffs: Latest Launches

I have read the report published in regarding over paying on energy bills by majority homes (around 70%) in UK. A study conducted by Competitions and Markets Authority (CMA) says around 70% consumers are using energy through expensive tariffs while cheaper tariffs available in the market!!!

Mainly dual-fuel energy subscribers who can save up to £160 a year have failed to choose the most economic deals. And most importantly the reason given by the CMA is much unanticipated for me at least. CMA found few reasons and first is Lack of Awareness about deals, tariffs and other related terms, the second is confusing bills. As a comparison service provider through Free Price Compare, it’s my moral duty to bring some awareness through my article and I have kicked off by this article which gives you a perfect insight into the ten recently launched energy tariffs by leading energy suppliers of UK.
