If rumour one + rumour two = fact, then it looks like uSwitch has been sold! Insiders View tend to hear a few things on the grapevine that don’t come to fruition. So far, we’ve managed to filter these out and only publish the events that have eventually come true. This one is a little tenuous but the signs are – from more than one source – that uSwitch (the utilities comparison specialist and poor dabbler in other comparison markets) has been sold.
What do we know people? Are these rumours of the sale of uSwitch comparison company true? Will there be a shift in direction? A return to focus on a select number of markets perhaps? Much was promised when uSwitch was first sold to our trans-atlantic cousins a few years ago. But since then, nothing much has been delivered. The identity of the buyer might reveal the strategy and what potential may lie in this deal.
Over to our community – who knows what?!

Hardly a rumour. Their parent company issued a release on this on Dec 23rd.
