Switchity

Who is Switchity?

Hello, and welcome to Switchity. We’re an independent UK comparison site, here to help you spend less on the household bills that matter most: broadband, mobile, energy, and the mobile phone in your pocket.

At a time when every household bill matters more than ever, even a small saving on a monthly contract is money back in your budget for the things that really count.

We also believe saving money and looking after the planet shouldn’t be separate choices. Since launching in 2022, we’ve built Switchity so every switch you make through us gives something back. Through our partnership with Ecologi, a share of every commission we earn funds tree planting and carbon offsetting projects around the world. You save on your bills, and the planet gets a little help in return.

Our panel sits across four categories:

Broadband

Over 400 deals from 30+ UK providers

Blending household names like BT, Sky and Virgin Media with the regional altnets laying full fibre down streets across the country.

SIM-only

Over 300 plans from 20 networks and retailers

From O2 and Vodafone to MVNO brands like Smarty, Talkmobile, VOXI and iD Mobile.

Mobile phones

Over 10,000 handset deals from major retailers

Including Carphone Warehouse, Mobile Phones Direct, Mobiles.co.uk and iD Mobile.

Energy

Switching across 10 UK suppliers

Including Octopus, British Gas, E.ON Next, EDF and Scottish Power.

Whether you’re trimming £20 a month off your broadband or moving to a new energy supplier, every switch counts. For your household, and for the planet.

The people behind Switchity

Switchity is run by a small UK-based team who care about getting comparison right. We use the same broadband, mobile and energy services as you, and we built this site to help our community find the deals that work for them, while doing a bit of good for the planet along the way.

The deals you see on Switchity aren’t pulled from a static list maintained by hand. To compare household utilities accurately and in real time, we work with the same data and switching partners that power the UK’s biggest comparison sites. That’s how a small team like ours can surface the same panel of live deals you’d find on a comparison site with hundreds of staff. And beyond the comparison engine, we work with an environmental partner that turns every commission we earn into measurable climate action.

The partners behind Switchity

We integrate with regulated comparison and climate partners so a small UK team can surface the same live deal panel you’d find on a comparison site with hundreds of staff.

What this means for you

You’re not just trusting Switchity. You’re benefiting from the credentials of the regulated partners providing our data and switching capabilities. We handle the integration so the comparison feels straightforward; they handle the regulated heavy lifting so you can switch with confidence.

Our editorial promise

How we work, who we’re really working for, and what we won’t do regardless of who’s paying us.

You're in control of how the deals are ranked

Comparison engines vary in how they order results by default. Switchity uses the Stickee engine that powers many of the UK’s largest comparison sites, layered with three things built to help you find true best value for your household:

  • Five sort options on every comparison table: most popular, monthly cost (low to high), effective monthly cost (low to high), contract length (low to high), and speed (high to low). Effective monthly cost is the one we’d point you to for true value, since it averages the full contract cost (including any reward, setup fee, and contract length) into a single comparable figure.
  • A three-way side-by-side comparison tool, unique among the UK’s major comparison sites, that lets you pick any three deals from the table and stack them next to each other across every spec: speed, contract length, set-up cost, rewards, price rises and total contract value.
  • Honest “best of” callouts on those comparisons (cheapest, best value, fastest, lowest set-up, best reward) calculated purely from the three deals you chose. Pick your three, and the maths tells you which one wins on each metric, with no algorithm or commission in the calculation.

You pick which deals to compare. We do the maths so you can see which one actually wins on what.

We show the full cost, not just the headline price

Whatever you’re comparing, the monthly price you see first rarely tells the full story. Switchity’s tables surface the costs and contract terms that actually shape what you’ll pay.

Our content is researched, not invented

Every guide and provider page on Switchity is grounded in primary sources: live deal data from our regulated partners, the providers’ own published terms, Ofcom and Ofgem regulatory documents, and verified customer signals like Trustpilot scores and Ofcom complaints data. If we can’t back a claim with a citation, we don’t publish it.

We're honest about what providers do well, and what they don't

Every provider review covers genuine pros and cons. If a provider has a poor Ofcom complaints record, weak customer service, or aggressive price-rise terms, we say so, even when that provider is one of our commercial partners. A comparison site that softens every weakness isn’t comparing anything.

Our content is built to stay accurate

Specific prices, package names, and contract lengths are pulled from live data, not written into static copy months ago. When deals change, the page changes. When a provider leaves the market, our content adapts. Anything we write should still be useful six months from now.
