1.   Contract

If you are a partnership or other organisation, you and the other partners or officers will be jointly and severally liable under this contract. You may not assign this contract without our consent.

This contract is governed by the laws of England and Wales for supply in England and Wales and by the laws of Scotland for supply in Scotland. Nothing in it affects your statutory rights. We and your local network operator reserve and maintain all our rights set out in Electricity legislation and our Licences. Your local network operator may enforce any provision of this contract in which it has rights.

We may transfer our rights and obligations in these terms and conditions to another company.

2.   Ending the Contract

You must call us if you wish to end this contract. We will stop you changing supplier where you ask us to.Your contract with us will end when your transfer to the other supplier is completed. Ending the contract will not affect any outstanding rights or obligations.

If you breach the terms of this contract or become in any way bankrupt or insolvent we may end it immediately and supply you on alternative terms.

3.   Price

We may change the prices or other terms of this contract. You must tell us if you then wish to cancel the contract and for the change not to take effect.

Your prices are based on what you have told us and we may have to change them if the information we have used is found to be incorrect.

Prices are subject to any change in taxation or government levies.

4.   Payment Terms

You will receive bills from us for your electricity usage. We may estimate your usage. A meter reading is taken as proof of your electricity usage unless your meter is found to be faulty. Either of us can arrange for the meter to be tested, but will have to pay for the test if the meter is found to be accurate.

You must pay us in the way we have agreed. If you do not pay on time we may charge you interest and/or a late payment fee together with any legal costs associated with the recovery of your outstanding debt. If you pay by cash, payment is due immediately on receipt of the bill. Please tell us immediately if you have difficulty paying. Other payment options may suit you better and we may require you to pay a security deposit. If you do not pay we will disconnect your supply. We will charge you our costs.

5.   Access to your premises

You must allow access to your electricity network operator or any person authorised by us. You must provide an emergency contact number if we or the network operator request it and notify us should this change.

7.   Changes to your electricity supply

You must contact us or your local network operator if required and secure our agreement if you wish to install generating equipment, modify your electricity connection or exceed the design features of your connection. You will have to pay the costs. If your usage or reactive power changes significantly, we may need to fit a new meter and provide an alternative contract. You must tell us if you appoint your own metering agent; we will provide an alternative contract.

If your maximum demand exceeds your authorised supply capacity we may make additional charges. If you exceed 100kW you must install a half-hourly meter at your cost. This contract will terminate and you will be supplied under different terms. We may charge you our costs if the meter is damaged on your premises.

8.   Changing premises

If you move, or wish to add sites to this contract or remove sites that you vacate, you must give us at least 48 hours notice and provide a meter reading. If you do not tell us, we will continue to charge you and you will remain liable for these charges. We will confirm the price for any new sites.

9.   Your Powergen Account

If you move premises, your Powergen account reference will not change, unless you request it. We will add the balance from your previous address to the account.

We will credit payments to your account to the oldest part of the balance first. If we need to split an account for multiple premises we will use the most recent bill as the basis.

10.   Data Protection

These uses include, but are not limited to, market research, billing and providing up to date information on products and special offers.
