Still With EDF Energy?
Your Bills Could Be Lower.
EDF is backed by the French state and runs the UK's nuclear fleet — but that doesn't mean they're giving you the best price. Families who switch through SaveFirst save an average of £50/month — completely free.
Why Families Are Leaving EDF Energy
EDF Energy, owned by the French government, operates the UK's nuclear power stations. But generating cheap electricity doesn't translate into cheap bills for you. EDF's standard variable tariff is at the Ofgem price cap, the maximum regulated rate.
Here's what's happening right now:
- EDF's standard variable tariff sits at the Ofgem price cap — you're paying the maximum allowed
- Their fixed tariffs often lock you in with hefty exit fees when better deals become available
- EDF's customer service has received consistent complaints about long wait times
- Despite generating some of the cheapest electricity in the UK, those savings aren't passed to you

"I assumed EDF would be cheap because they generate their own electricity. They're not. SaveFirst showed me I was overpaying by £50 a month — just on energy alone. When they added my broadband and mobile savings, it was even more."

Common Questions About Switching From EDF
No. Despite generating some of the cheapest electricity through nuclear power, EDF's retail prices are among the highest. Their standard variable tariff sits at the Ofgem price cap. A free SaveFirst audit will show you how much you could save by switching.
With SaveFirst, you don't have to do anything. Send us your current EDF bill (a photo on WhatsApp is fine), and we handle the entire switch — no phone calls, no cancellation forms, no paperwork. Your supply is never interrupted.
Some EDF fixed tariffs include exit fees if you leave before the contract ends. However, the savings from switching typically outweigh any exit fee within the first month. We'll include exit fee analysis in your free savings report.
Yes, completely free. We're paid by the provider when you switch — you never pay us anything. If we can't save you money, nobody pays anything and you stay exactly where you are.
The Bottom Line
EDF generates some of the cheapest electricity in the country — but they're not passing those savings on to you. Every month on their standard tariff is money you don't need to spend.
A free SaveFirst audit takes 2 minutes and costs nothing. If we can't save you money, you stay with EDF and nothing changes. If we can — and for most families we save £50/month or more — you keep every penny.
There's literally no downside. The only risk is waiting another month.
