The prompt · ChatGPT
Help me compare energy or broadband deals like for like. Which: [energy / broadband] What I pay now: [amount, tariff name if known] Usage: [kWh, or download needs / working from home] Contract end and exit fees: [if known] Must-haves: [e.g. green energy, upload speed, phone bundle] Deals I'm looking at: [paste or describe] Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. A like-for-like table using the same period and the same usage. 2. Exit fees and any intro-rate cliff edges called out. 3. A shortlist of up to three that fit, with why, without crowning a single 'best'. 4. Three checks before I switch (credit check, downtime, cooling-off). 5. Point me to MoneyHelper or GOV.UK guidance on switching if relevant. Don't invent tariffs. Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, figures or products. This is help organising my own numbers and wording, not financial advice; point me to MoneyHelper, GOV.UK or Citizens Advice for guidance, and to a free regulated debt adviser if I'm struggling to pay. UK English. For MoneyHelper or GOV.UK guidance on switching energy or broadband, use web search and name the page you used. If it doesn't search on its own, open View all tools and choose Search.
