Just how reliable are the price comparison sites?

[LizzygotDizzy]

I've been on quite a few to try and check out cheaper fuel and energy suppliers, but I've heard that a lot of the comparison sites are often paid by the suppliers to push their individual products and it doesn't help that I have now been recommended 3 different suppliers for energy, namely E-on, N-power and Southern Electric, am confused, :-$ any ideas?

This is dealing with insurance but I'm sure similar concerns apply.
