We will allow customers to move occasionally between plans when there is a significant change at your site. For example purchase of an Electric Vehicle, purchase of Solar, children moving out of home, etc. The plan start date will be the same as your current plan start date.
Please let us know the date you are moving, or the date you are no longer needing to have power, so we can make sure you are not overcharged. We will update this on your account and send a letter to your old address for the new owner.
