WHAT ARE DEEMED CONTRACTS?

A Deemed Contract is the contract you will be placed on if you become liable for a property which we already supply. Unless you agree a new contract with us, or change to another energy supplier, we will begin billing you on our Deemed Rates on a monthly basis, and you will need to make a full payment within 14 days of the date on the bill.

WHAT ARE OUT OF CONTRACT RATES?

Out of Contract Rates are the rates you will be placed on if your previously agreed contract prices have ended and you have not yet renewed with us nor agreed a contract with a new supplier. Following the end of your original contract prices, we’ll begin billing you on Out of Contract Rates, which are likely to be higher rates than your existing contract prices.

FINDING THE BEST CHOICE FOR YOUR BUSINESSES

Deemed and Out of Contract rates are often higher than contracted ones, and we always encourage customers to choose a contract and tariff that suits their business requirements.

To move off these rates easily at any time, you can switch to a new supplier* or get in touch with us to find out what we may be able to offer.

*Any debt associated with your account is expected to be settled before switching supplier.
