I've moved out and forgot to tell you, what should I do?
Don't worry, just contact us and provide us with the information outlined below.
Information you must provide when closing your existing account:

This ensures your final bill and any other correspondence relating to your closed account reaches you directly. - MPRN/GPRN
This number is located on the top right-hand corner of your bill. - Account number
This number can also be found at the top of your bill.
You can also request to have a new account set up for your new home. You'll need to provide us with the information outlined below:

*If you're unable to provide us with a meter reading, our customer service agents can provide you with an estimate reading to close your account. The estimated read, while based on historic consumption, may not be as accurate as an actual read. You'll be asked to provide verbal approval before we can use this estimate as your closing read. Please keep in mind that amending closing estimates is at the discretion of the corresponding network company and may not always be approved.
Please note: If you're a landlord and your tenants have moved out of your property, please let us know. You must sign on to the account for the interim duration until new tenants move in to your property to avoid disconnection.
