My son is changing his prepayment electricity supplier with a supply start date of 31/05.

He's just called to say he doesn't think his credit will last until 31st.Can he use his new supplier key(already received) before then or should he top up the original key and use the new one after 31st?[/STRIKE]

Never mind he decided to top up original key

    Bit late but that is what I would of done, not used the 'new' key until the appropriate time, even it meant putting £1 or £2 on the 'old' key to tide it over. :)
