- Home Services saw recovery overall and growth in core energy switching.

Mark Lewis, CEO of Moneysupermarket.com Group, said:

"We are on track for another record year because we are helping more people save more money across their household bills: from insurance and credit cards to holidays, broadband and energy.

"We're particularly encouraged by the continued growth of insurance, and momentum in energy switching, as families look to find better deals.

"Our message to customers is clear - don't kid yourself that the energy price cap will be the answer, if you haven't switched recently you can quickly and easily save £250 today, by switching to a competitive fixed rate!"
