How do you calculate my savings?

The savings shown on your power bill are estimated by comparing your Flick plan to your previous power company’s standard comparable published plan, for your network & metering set up, at the time you joined Flick (taking account of things like whether you're a Standard or Low user, and whether you have an uncontrolled or controlled meter etc).

We include your previous power company's prompt payment discount in the calculation, but we don’t include any potential alternative plans or discounts that are additional to your old plan, such as dual fuel, e-bills or extra direct debit discounts (Download your Guide to Bullshite Power Deals to find out why these deals might not be the bargains they seem).

The retailers we can compare against are Contact, Energy Online, Genesis, Mega, Mercury, Meridian, Nova, Payless, Pulse, Tiny Mighty and Trustpower. If you were with any other retailer, or you're moving into a new property, we'll compare your total spend with Flick against the biggest power company in your area.
