What happens if I have a prepayment meter?
If you’re a Pay As You Go customer, you should continue to top up your meter in exactly the same way as you did before to make sure your energy supply stays on at your property.
You can top up at any Paypoint, at the same locations you always have, and you can keep using the same key and card.
If you have a smart meter, you can continue to top up using the Swift App or online using Smart Pay.
If your gas and electricity supply goes off, top up as normal as soon as you can to get back up and running. If it still won’t come back on, and you get an error message on your meter display, please get in touch on 0345 034 7474.
