Arthur bears no responsibility for their service but we welcome feedback from our clients.
Homeshift is a platform for consumers to set up and manage their household utilities and services from one place online, including choosing services, managing communication with suppliers and paying for services. Homeshift is already helping thousands of customers and works closely with hundreds of property groups across the UK.
Homeshift offers consumers the ability to set up and manage their key household services across electricity, gas, council tax, water, internet, and other services from one place through our home dashboard. Consumers are invited to set up their home services online in a few minutes saving themselves time, money and effort. Consumers are also able to speak to a dedicated concierge team that can set up home services for them over the phone or via live chat in minutes.
Homeshift offers three core revenue-generating services, electricity, gas, and internet (water & council tax being nonrevenue generating services). These services are offered to consumers directly as ‘Homeshift Services’ with customers being able to bundle their electricity, gas, and internet together on their Homeshift dashboard. Services across energy and the internet are competitively priced. We constantly source cheaper energy and internet prices and pass savings onto consumers year after year.
Our product has been rigorously tested against all current and future FCA, OFGEM, OFCOM requirements.
