“Give me 5 minutes of your time right now to explain your energy situation, and I’ll hand you up to hundreds of dollars in cash.“

Imagine someone walks up to you on the street and makes you this offer.

Would you say no?

Of course you wouldn’t.

Yet every day, that’s exactly what 4 out of 5 Australians are doing when they don’t check if they’re overpaying on their energy bills.

It seems crazy, doesn’t it?

With July 1st energy price hikes now live and up 13% in some states…

And our household budgets shrinking every year.

You’d think everyone would jump at the chance to save hundreds with just a few minutes’ work.

I did.

And saved hundreds by simply changing my supplier.

So, if the savings are so good, and it’s so quick and easy…

Why isn’t every Australian switching and pocketing the hundreds they could save?

Well, it could have something to do with these switching myths.

The Great Australian Energy Rip-Off

Before we bust those myths wide open, here’s something you might find interesting.

And it gets better.

This federal incentive can stack with existing state rebates, potentially saving you thousands more:

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) have found:

And you’re not alone in this.

That’s right. Your loyalty is costing you.

According to the latest research

The difference can add up to thousands of dollars over just a few years.

For those who do make the switch…

A whopping 41% say saving money is their primary reason for changing providers.

So, what’s stopping everyone taking action?

9 Energy Switching Myths Keeping Money Out of Your Pocket

Myth #1: It’s Not Worth the Effort…Savings Are Minimal

FACT: Many Australians can save up to $584 per year by switching to a better plan.

And regularly comparing and switching can lead to significant long-term savings.

That’s thousands of dollars over a few years that could be in your pocket instead of theirs.

Myth #2: Switching Is Complicated and Takes Ages

FACT: Switching is quick and easy, and can be completed online in just a few minutes.

Find out your savings here now before you make the switch

Myth #3: You’ll Lose Power During the Switch

FACT: Your electricity supply will not be interrupted when you change providers. Not even for a second.

The switch is purely administrative. The same poles, the same wires, the same reliability. Just a different (smaller) bill.

Myth #4: You Need to Cancel Your Current Supplier First

FACT: You do not need to cancel your old provider or make that awkward phone call.

Your new electricity company will handle the entire transfer, including notifying your previous supplier. One less thing for you to worry about.

Myth #5: You Can’t Switch If You’re on a Contract

FACT: Most residential plans are now contract-free, but even if you’re on a contract, you can still switch.

There may be an exit fee, but potential savings often outweigh this cost. Always check your contract details, but don’t let this stop you from comparing.

Myth #6: Renters Can’t Switch Suppliers

FACT: Renters can switch electricity providers as long as the account is in their name.

The only exceptions are if your rental agreement specifically prohibits it (rare) or if you live in an embedded network with a single supplier.

Myth #7: All Energy Companies Are the Same

FACT: Providers differ significantly in pricing, customer service, green energy options, and rewards

The only exceptions are if your rental agreement specifically prohibits it (rare) or if you live in an embedded network with a single supplier.

Myth #8: You’ll Need a New Meter Installed

FACT: Switching suppliers does not require a new meter or any physical changes to your property

The process is administrative only. No one needs to visit your home, and there’s no disruption to your supply.

Myth #9: Loyalty Gets You the Best Deal

FACT: New customers often get the best discounts and rates.

Staying loyal to one provider rarely pays off in the energy market.

Energy companies count on you staying while they offer their best deals to new customers.

Who Can You Trust To Help You Switch?

Now that we’ve debunked these common myths, you might be wondering:

“How do I actually go about switching without getting caught in the usual hassles?”
