How long are quotes valid?
Some suppliers will only honour a price for only a short period of time, especially if International wholesale markets fluctuate so it’s best to accept a contract as soon as possible.
Factors which affect a quote?
Energy prices for businesses are highly variable and dependent upon numerous factors, from the supplier’s risk factor, global wholesale markets, geographic location, supply type, business type and credit rating.
When should you switch suppliers?
It usually takes about one month to complete a move between suppliers.
This process timescale does vary, depending on how cooperative the losing supplier is and whether it raises objections to the move.
We can generally obtain quotes for up to 3 months before your existing contract expires. Therefore, we recommend looking for a new supplier about two months before your contract ends-this should give you enough time to transition from your current provider when the time comes.
