  • Now is a good time to check if you can get a cheaper energy tariff – get a free call from charity’s adviser

    Published: 9th March 2026

    • Citizens Advice South Gloucestershire is offering a free price comparison call to check if you can move to a cheaper energy tariff
    • Now is a good time to check this due to current events – particularly if you haven’t changed tariff for a while
    • Anyone interested can sign up for a free call via the charity’s online webform or by visiting any free advice sessions around South Gloucestershire

    Anyone concerned about the price of their gas or electricity given recent news has the opportunity to get a free energy price comparison call.

    Citizens Advice South Gloucestershire is offering a call with their trained, independent adviser who can advise on whether there are cheaper energy tariff options.

    This is timely as recent news suggests energy prices will rise. It could be particularly worth checking prices for anyone who has not changed tariff for a while.

    Anyone with a specific energy issue – such as a problem with a bill or supplier – can also sign up for help from the charity’s energy specialist.

    The charity’s energy expert Marion said: “Marion said: “There are quite a few ways that you can make savings on your electricity costs.

    “In addition to fixing or changing provider there are savings to be made in changing the way that you pay, making better use of your smart meter to take advantage of low peak rates. And of course making sure that you are cutting down on your usage.

    “We can also help if you are having trouble meeting your payments.”

    How to sign up for a price comparison call

    Anyone wanting help – such as a price comparison or help with an energy issue – is welcome to sign up at: https://forms.office.com/e/pzDseP11dB

    Or for energy information including savvy energy usage and energy efficiency, sign up here: https://forms.office.com/e/56xirvWWVS

    They are also welcome to attend any of the charity’s free advice drop-ins around South Gloucestershire – times and locations available on: https://www.southgloscab.org.uk/get-advice/visit-us/

    Or call the charity on its free Adviceline on 0808 278 7947.
