Use the rates, actual usage and billing period from your own Australian energy bill to compare estimated electricity or gas plan costs side by side.
How it works: Upload a bill or enter the usage and rates yourself, then compare estimated plan costs for the same billing period. Money Detective compares only the figures you provide. It does not retrieve plan data. Check imported details—estimates are a guide, not future bills.
Don't have your usage numbers handy?
Use an average based on household size as a starting point. A recent bill will give you a more relevant comparison.
These national averages are a guide only and may not reflect high-use appliances such as pools, ducted air conditioning or electric vehicle charging.
