Savings that are Loved by all…
Moving house was a great opportunity to switch energy providers. This site even assured me I’d have power and gas right when I moved in. Try EConnex – it really works.
I could not believe how easy it was to change to different energy company. I could use even my phone.
The great thing about this site is it gives you dollar values, not confusing percentages and ‘discounts’. You know exactly what you’re getting each time.
I HATE phone calls when I just want to switch my plan. This made it so easy, I was done in between a commercial break!
“Such a breeze to use – if you have five minutes and want to save on electricity, it’s a no brainer!”
“Electricity and gas comparison sites always ring, especially during work hours. This doesn’t have any of that. It’s all online, which is so much more convenient. Thank you Econnex!”
