Large suppliers see best month for switching in eight years

Large suppliers enjoyed their best month for electricity switches in eight years in September as market uncertainty pushed consumers towards established players.

A spokesperson told Utility Week the figures for October would be released later this month and that the same trend can be seen for the larger players.
