Stop Paying the Energy Loyalty Tax

Irish utility companies rely on you forgetting to switch. The moment your 12-month contract ends, you are moved to a standard variable rate that costs hundreds of euros more per year.

How Switching Works

Switching your electricity or gas provider in Ireland takes less than 5 minutes. Nobody comes to your house, no wires are changed, and your power is never cut off. The only difference is the logo on your cheaper bill.

1. Grab a Recent Bill

You need your MPRN (for electricity) or GPRN (for gas). This is a unique 11-digit or 7-digit number printed at the top of your current utility bill.

2. Submit a Reading

Check your physical meter outside or in your hallway. Submitting a fresh reading ensures your old provider bills you accurately for your final days.

3. Claim the Discount

Use a certified comparison tool to lock in a new customer acquisition rate. Your new provider handles all the cancellation paperwork with your old one.
