prepayment (scottish power) and moving house

well, they certainly don't make it easy. has anybody else had experience of trying to move out, having previously prepaid moving to a 'normal' meter, is it easy? do they try and rip you off? will they expect me to have a prepayment meter installed into my new address? i'm currently around £60 in credit to scottish power, having been paying 'extra' to clear a debt, which has now been cleared, but they seem to still be taking the debt payment. ta.

    The meter in the new property will remain where it is unless you ask for it to be changed.

    The supplier otherwise has to apply for warrants and they can't simply apply for a warrant at the new property without following the correct process.

    To be honest, when you move home, they probably won't even think about it.

    You may not even be supplied by them at the new property.
