Some households are losing hundreds of dollars a year by not shopping around for the best deal on electricity.
Since 2002, consumers have been able to compare deals relatively simply using online calculator PowerSwitch - but new UMR research released by the Electricity Commission this week found just 13 per cent of respondents had heard of the website.

Yet, the commission said, a "sizeable proportion" did not do it.
