ENERGY companies have been getting plenty of flak recently for the high cost of gas and electricity bills.

Here in York, however, hundreds of householders have been able to save money thanks to an energy-switching scheme supported by the city council.

The authority teamed up with energy switching experts iChoosr to make it easier for York people to change supplier.

Registration for the scheme closed at the end of March.

But don’t worry if you missed out. The authority plans to run a number of schemes throughout the year.
