Energy supplier end of fixed tariff

Options
My fixed tariff is ending 30th April with scottish power.
But I'm moving in the next month to a smaller house. 
Help what do I do,  as new fixed tariffs will be set on my present property.

  • On the 30th April do nothing: you will default to the Ofgem capped tariff. As appropriate, you should  advise SP that you are moving with a meter reading. 

    Your new property will have a deemed supplier. You contact that supplier with the date that you moved in and provide them with a meter reading. Unless you agree to a new fixed tariff, you will be put on the Ofgem capped tariff.
  • Do nothing about your SP contract, let it roll onto the Standard Variable tariff.

    Advise SP you are moving home, give them final readings from the day you vacate your current property and tell them where to send the final bill.

    You then become a customer of the incumbent supplier at the new property, so find out who they are and take meter readings and contact them as soon as you move in.

    DO NO let them sell you a fix unless you are 100% sure that is the right deal for you.
