Help! I want rid of my prepayment electric meter!

Jodidum

Hi!
I am hoping that someone can tell me what to do as trying to figure out a plan with all the information available is giving me a migraine!
I have a pre-prayment meter for my electric, that has been in this flat longer than we have and I really want to switch to paying my electric by monthly direct debit. I am with scottish hydro and they will charge £50 to remove the meter, which I am not keen on paying. Does anyone know if any companies switch for free, even if it means going to another company for a few months on prepayment and then moving to direct debit. I am not to impressed with scottish hydro raising the standing charge to £100 when I already pay over the odds for my electric.
My gas is with scottish hydro too and pay that monthly.

Thanks in advance!

EDF removed my electric one for free and the gas meter is being changed on Friday.

Eon have just agreed to change our prepayment meter they do it for free you just have to pass a credit check, if you don't they take a deposit off you and refund if you pay bills at the end of the year
