    If you do not owe money the losing company cannot prevent you switching.

    Your problem is getting another company to accept you and/or the terms they may insist upon.

    As a credit check is normal procedure, so I would have thought you are unlikely to be offered a credit meter unless you paid a large deposit.

    They may not want the expense of fitting pre-pay meters
