Meter change?

Options
I have just moved in to a property with both gas & electric on prepayment meters. Eon, the current supplier for both, changed them
to credit meters free of charge.

Does anybody know if this ties me to
eon as an energy provider for a certain period?

  • Shouldn't do, if you're on a standard tariff.

    At the same time as changing the meter you may have signed up to a minimum term tariff though.

    Hi Whiston

    No, you can change supplier at any time.

    The only penalty will be if you've agreed to go on one of our Fixed Term products. In this case, there'll be an exit fee. This will be £5 per fuel on the 1 year fix and £10 per fuel on the 2 year fix.

    If you're on any other tariff, there's no exit fee.

    Hope the move went well Whiston and you're now settled in to your new home. Let me know if you need any more information as happy to help.
