We know that it’s not always easy to keep up with bills, and if you do find yourself struggling, get in touch and we can discuss ways in which we can help. It's best to have an up to date meter reading ready when you contact us. 


If you’re struggling to pay for your energy, we can help:

  • Discuss a final bill repayment plan
  • Review your monthly direct debit payments to match your regular consumption
  • Discuss payment plans to spread debt over a longer period 
  • Discuss a temporary reduction in your monthly payments if you have had a sudden change in circumstances such as loss of employment or income. As this could increase your debt in the future, we can only offer this as a short-term solution
  • Give you plenty of advice on how to lower your energy bills, check out our energy saving tips
  • Install a smart meter to ensure we have accurate and up to date meter readings and you can view your usage in real time
  • Make sure you are on the most cost-effective tariff (if there are any tariff options in the market at the time)
  • Check that we've billed to actual meter readings
  • Please note: We’ll do everything we reasonably can to help, however, we will report missed payments or instances of continued underpayment to credit reference agencies, which may make it harder for you to get credit in the future
