8.3. If you are moving house and do not want us to continue to supply electricity or gas (or both) at your new property you must give us at least 2 working daysWorking Days’ notice before you move. If you do this your contract will end on the date you inform us you will move out of the Property unless you still own the Property and no one else has taken over responsibility for it. If you do not do this, this contract will continue until the earlier of: • 2 working days Working Days after you tell us; or • another owner or occupier receives electricity or gas (or both) at the Property.
8.4. If you are moving house and you do want us to continue to supply electricity or gas (or both) at your new property, we may be able to transfer your tariff to your new home. If we agree a transfer with you: • we may continue to apply your current tariff if you continue to be eligible for that tariff in your new property; and • the prices you will pay for your supplies may be different from the prices in your old home because of regional variations in our prices or a change in metering. We will inform you of any changes in prices.
8.5. If we stop you from switching your supply to another company, we’ll write to you as soon as we can to explain why we are doing so and the next steps that you can take, including if you wish to challenge the reasons we have given.
8.6. It’s important that you provide us with a meter reading when you end this contract (unless you have a smart Smart meter in which case we will take this automatically). If you do not give us a meter reading at that time, we’ll estimate your meter reading and will prepare your final bill based on these estimated figures. If either the estimated meter reading or the reading you have provided is inaccurate you may have to pay the difference between the meter reading on which we based the final bill or the final estimated bill and the accurate meter reading.
8.7. We can end this contract immediately if: • you break any term or condition of this contract and we think this is serious (for example, if you tamper with your meter or make a fraudulent payment); • we no longer have the relevant licences to supply the Property; and/or • Ofgem tells another supplier to supply electricity or gas (or both) to you.
8.8. If this contract ends for any reason, neither of us will lose any rights we already have (for example, to claim any money that is owed at the end of the contract). If after the contract ends, you have any money left on your account after we have settled any outstanding payments due to us from you in accordance with clause 3.14, we will tell you about the amounts owed to you. We do not have to pay you this money where: • we have made a reasonable effort to pay you the money and 12 months has passed since we told you of the final amount we owed you; or • we cannot send the money we owe to you because you have not given us a forwarding address, 12 months has passed since the contract ended and we have taken all reasonable steps to return it to you.

8.10. You will not have to pay an Early Termination Fee if: • you cancel a contract that is not for a Fixed-rate tariff; or • you complete a switch to another supplier at any time after we give you notice that the Fixed-rate term is ending.
