Wessex Water buys energy switching platform

Wessex Water has bought a platform which automatically switches consumers onto the cheapest energy deal.

The water company is said to “invest significantly” in Flipper, which automatically compares tariffs on a regular basis for customers.

The purchase is part of Wessex Water’s commitment “to ensure customers get value for money”.

David Elliott, Director of Strategy and New Markets at Wessex Water Groups said: “Flipper works by putting the customer first and takes away the pain of assessing complex tariffs and pushing commission-led deals.

“Quite simply, it ensures you’re on the best tariff and does all of the hard work for you. It’s all about doing the right thing for the customer and offering both value for money and a hassle free way of managing utility bills.”
