What this tool does
This interactive tool creates the formal written notice you need to send to your current energy supplier when you want to switch to a new provider. It generates a professional termination letter that includes all the essential details and legal language required to properly notify your supplier of your intention to leave.
The notice it creates covers your business details, account information, contract end dates, and requests confirmation of final billing arrangements, ensuring you meet your contractual obligations whilst protecting your right to switch.
When to use it
Use this tool when you have decided to switch business energy suppliers and need to give formal notice to your current provider. Most business energy contracts require between 30 to 90 days' notice before you can switch, depending on your contract terms and annual energy consumption.
It is particularly useful if you are approaching your contract end date or if you have found a better deal elsewhere and want to ensure you give proper notice in writing. Having a formal record of your termination notice protects you if any disputes arise later.
How it works
You provide basic information about your current energy contract, including your supplier name, business details, account or meter numbers, supply type, and contract dates. The tool then generates a complete, professionally formatted notice that you can send directly to your supplier by email or post.
The finished notice includes all the necessary legal language and requests for confirmation that suppliers expect to receive. Nothing you enter is saved by the tool, and you do not need to create an account. Remember to check your specific contract terms for exact notice periods, as requirements can vary between suppliers and contract types.
