Check my bill
Check an electricity bill against available plans for your home’s usage, or review the visible details on a natural-gas bill.

Paste or upload 2–3 quotes. Compare scope, inclusions, exclusions, payment terms and warranties — not just the total.

Look at registration, licence information and review signals. See what can be verified — and what can’t.
Check public detailsWrite a job brief
Describe the job before asking for prices. Build a clear brief so businesses quote on the same work.

How it works
From “I need a job done”
to “I know what to ask”.
One connected way to make sense of a job. Start where you are — you don’t need to do every step.
01 / PREPARE
Write a job brief
Put the work, expectations and important details into words. Give each business the same starting point.
Start a brief 02 / UNDERSTANDCheck a quote
Make sense of a single quote. Spot unclear inclusions, missing details and questions to take back to the business.
Check one quote 03 / COMPARECompare quotes
Look at 2–3 quotes together. See differences in scope and terms before deciding what’s right for you.
Compare your optionsJobs, quotes and everyday decisions
What can I check?
From a plumbing repair to a solar installation, start with the job in front of you. Choose a category to compare quotes, check an electricity bill against available plans, or review visible details on a natural-gas bill.
Job categories open quote comparison. Electricity opens our existing bill checker. Natural gas opens a visible-details review only; it does not compare gas plans. Other bill types aren’t supported.
For the bill already on your desk
Know where your power bill stands.
Your plan may have made sense once. Bill Scout reads the rates and usage on your bill, then compares the plans available in your area.
01
Share a photo, PDF or the details
Use your camera, upload a bill, or answer a few short questions instead.
02
We make sense of the bill
Usage, tariff and supply charges are checked before the comparison starts.
03
Get a clear comparison
See whether there is a more suitable plan — or reassurance that yours is competitive.
A consumer tool, not a sales funnel
Useful information. Clear limits.
No supplier or retailer payments
Bill Scout is not paid by suppliers or retailers. Our checks are not a sales pitch for the business or plan you’re considering.
No pretend certainty
We explain the evidence and its limits. When there isn’t enough to be confident, we say “not enough evidence” — not “safe” or “scam”.
Only what is needed
For bill checks, we use the figures needed for the maths — not your name, address or account number.
Start with the thing in front of you
What are you about to commit to?
A job, a bill, an offer. Get clearer on the details before you say yes.
