Why should I switch?
You can choose who supplies your gas and electricity. When you switch to another supplier, you don't have to make changes to the pipes or meters. All that changes is the price you pay and who you pay it to. People switch supplier for different reasons: To make savings, manage their account online or for an environmentally friendly tariff.
What do I need to do?
Just use the Quick Quote or give the UK Call Centre a ring on 0800 068 8775 and that's it! We'll do all the rest.
How do I know how much gas or electricity I use?
To help us find the best energy supplier and tariff for you, we need to know approximately how much energy you use. You can find this information on your latest energy bill or we can help you estimate it. To do this we use average consumption figures provided by energywatch. These figures are shown below.
Gas

|---|---|
| 1 | 10,000 |
| 2 | 15,000 |
| 3 | 25,000 |
| 4 | 29,000 |

Who can I switch to?
ASDA Gas & Electricity check the prices of every supplier to find you the best deal. So you can switch to almost anyone.
What information do I need to provide?
To get a quote, you just need to tell us your postcode, details of current supplier and monthly bill amount. Then when you've chosen your new supplier, just give us your name, address and other details and we'll take care of the switch for you.
Why should I be interested in green tariffs?
Green tariffs have less environmental impact than a standard tariff. So if you're interested in doing your bit to reduce carbon emissions, you might want to choose a green tariff.
