I thought this was excellent, despite the fact that all switchd concerned in is advising you how more money you can save on your energy bill.
For some reason, this gets precedence over what I would consider being the more critical information I would like to receive from my energy broker.
They do not alleviate the agony of switching; on the contrary, they add another degree of complication, and aside from choosing a cheaper provider, you are still responsible for all the legwork.
My spending time with Switchd ripping off my brain significantly outweighs the ‘’more money’’ they promise I could save.
Don't use this website, they make fake promises.
