Free Energy Bill Review From a Real Person

Is your energy tariff still right for your household? Julie reviews your gas and electricity bills for free, tells you honestly whether there is a better option available and handles the switch from start to finish if you decide to go ahead.

Are You Paying Too Much for Your Energy?

Most UK households are paying more for their energy than they need to. Not because they chose to. Because they have not had anyone sit down and check.

01.

If you have never switched energy supplier, or if your fixed deal ended and you were quietly moved onto a standard variable tariff without realising it, the chances are you are paying more than necessary. The average UK household spends around £1,200 per year on energy, but switching tariffs or suppliers can save £200 to £300 annually.

02.

Energy bills have increased by 13% for millions of households, after the latest energy price cap came into force on 1 July 2026. The Ofgem price cap is rising 13% from 1 July 2026, pushing bills from £1,641 to £1,862 a year on equivalent usage — an increase of £221 a year or £18 a month. If you are on a standard variable tariff, your bill increased automatically on 1 July.

03.

The good news is that if you are on the energy price cap, you may be able to make significant savings on your energy bills by switching to a fixed deal. The challenge is knowing which deal is actually right for your household, and finding the time to navigate the process.

04.

That is exactly what Julie is here to help with. She does the checking, the comparing and the switching for you. All you do is answer a few simple questions.

What most households do not know:

70% of UK homes are on the wrong energy tariff and could be paying less
Switching energy supplier takes just three to five working days under Ofgem rules
Your energy supply is never cut off during a switch
You do not need to contact your old supplier yourself when you switch

This Is Not a Comparison Website

You could spend an evening on a comparison site, reading through tariffs, unit rates and standing charges, and still not be sure whether you have made the right choice.

Or you could talk to Julie.

Julie is not a comparison website. She does not hand you a list of results and leave you to figure it out. She has a real conversation with you, understands your specific household situation and gives you one clear, honest recommendation.

She covers 30 or more UK energy providers and looks at your actual usage, your meter type and your current tariff before recommending anything. And if switching does not make financial sense for your household right now, she will tell you that honestly.

The difference between Julie and a comparison site:

A comparison site shows you a list. Julie gives you an answer.
A comparison site shows you deals on its panel only. Julie looks at what is genuinely right for your household.
A comparison site leaves you to switch yourself. Julie handles the whole process for you.
A comparison site has no idea who you are six months later. Julie is still your personal contact after the switch.

What a Free Energy Bill Review With Julie Involves

Step 1: You Tell Julie What You Currently Pay

A friendly conversation by phone, WhatsApp or the contact form. Julie asks about your current energy supplier, your rough monthly payment and whether you are on a fixed or variable tariff. You do not need to find your bill before getting in touch.

Step 2: Julie Checks Whether You Could Pay Less

Once she understands your situation, Julie reviews whether a better energy deal is available for your household. She takes into account your usage, your meter type, whether you are on a prepayment meter and whether any exit fees apply to your current contract.

Step 3: Julie Gives You an Honest Answer

If there is a better deal available, Julie will tell you clearly what it is and what it would mean for your monthly bills. If your current tariff already looks right for your situation, she will tell you that too. No pressure. No upsell. Just a straight answer.

Step 4: Julie Handles the Switch

If you decide to switch, Julie takes care of everything. Your new supplier handles everything including contacting your old one. You have a 14-day cooling-off period if you change your mind. Most switches complete within three to five working days and your supply is never interrupted.

Making Sense of Your Energy Bill

You do not need to understand all of this before speaking to Julie. But knowing the basics helps you see why your current tariff might not be right for your household.

Unit Rate and Standing Charge

Your energy bill is made up of two main costs. The unit rate is the cost per kilowatt hour of gas or electricity you actually use. The standing charge is a fixed daily amount you pay regardless of usage. The cheapest deal varies by region and meter type, and comparing on total annual cost rather than just the unit rate is essential, as standing charges vary significantly between tariffs.

Fixed vs Variable Tariff

A fixed tariff locks your unit rate and standing charge for a set period, usually 12 or 24 months, giving you price certainty. If wholesale prices rise, your bills stay the same. Variable tariffs track market prices and the Ofgem price cap and can go up or down each quarter. If you are on a standard variable tariff and have not switched recently, you are likely paying more than you need to.

Prepayment Meters

If you have a prepayment meter, you can still switch energy supplier and access better deals. Julie understands the options available for prepayment customers and will advise on what is possible for your specific situation.

Smart Meters

Smart meters give you real-time visibility of your usage and eliminate estimated billing. If you have one, Julie can factor your actual consumption data into her review. If you do not, she can still carry out a full review based on your monthly payment and supplier information.

Could One Bill Cover Your Energy, Broadband and Mobile?

One of the most popular reasons people come to Julie is to bring their energy, broadband and mobile together onto a single monthly payment.

Instead of managing three separate bills from three different companies, you have one simple payment, one person to call and ongoing cashback on your combined bills every single month.

This is especially popular with first time buyers setting up household bills for the first time and with busy families who want to simplify their monthly finances.

New customers who come through Julie can also earn up to £250 to spend as a welcome benefit. Speak to Julie for full details on current offers and terms.

Who Benefits Most From a Free Energy Bill Review

Households on Standard Variable Tariffs If you have never switched supplier, or if your fixed deal ended and you were automatically moved onto a default tariff, you are almost certainly on one of the most expensive options available. This is the most common situation Julie encounters.

Prepayment Meter Customers Prepayment customers have options when it comes to switching and accessing better energy deals. Julie will advise honestly on what is available for your meter type.

Elderly Customers Many of Julie’s customers are older people who find the energy market confusing and have never felt confident switching. Julie handles everything so there is no need to navigate call centre menus or complicated forms. You just have a friendly conversation with Julie and she takes it from there.

First Time Buyers When you move into a new home, you inherit the existing energy supplier. That does not mean you have to stay with them. Julie helps first time buyers get set up on the right tariff from day one so they are not paying more than they need to from the moment they move in.

Anyone Who Has Not Reviewed Their Energy in More Than a Year If you cannot remember the last time someone checked your energy tariff, now is a good time. Especially following the July 2026 price cap rise.
