I’m still in my first 14 days with avro, is it wise for me to cancel?

i signed up with avro less than 14 days ago and they aren’t due to supply me until the 3rd

with avro going under is it a good idea for me to cancel as it’s still within the 14 day period? 

or is it a bad idea and would massively complicate things? 


cheers

    When is your Avro direct debit due for payment as it will automatically go out if left?

    Yes cancel as you're within your 14 day cooling off period, get confirmation your switch has been cancelled then decide whether to stay on EDF's standard variable rate, sign up to a fixed tariff with them or move to a new supplier preferably a big company as a lot more smaller companies could go bust in lead up to xmas.

    Contact EDF and see if they can block the switch.

    Yes, don't forget to cancel that direct debit also.
