Switching to E.ON in Hampshire

When you move house, one of the most important things you need to do is set up your gas and electricity contracts. This is a very easy process, although some people find it rather overwhelming. That's why Switch Plan are here. Our experts will do everything for you to make sure your home in Hampshire is fully fuelled up before you move in. However, there are just 3 things you need to make sure it all runs smoothly:

Firstly, when you leave your old house, take a note of the meter reading and leave it in an accessible place for the next residents of the property. This is to make a note of how much you used, and to stop you being accidentally overcharged by your provider.
Next, you should do the exact same thing in your new house in Hampshire! Locate the energy meter, jot down the reading, and write it down so that you have it to hand should you need it. Sometimes, the supplier of your new property might request a meter reading to know when to start charging you for the energy you use. So it's good to have a note of this so you're not overcharged and pay for energy you haven't used yourself!
Lastly, when you move house, it's highly likely that you take on a 'deemed' contract, which means that you will continue with the contract that the previous residents of the property had agreed to. You might like this plan, and want to stick with it! But chances are you will need to switch over to a different tariff to suit your energy needs better. If you're not sure who supplies your new house with energy, or if the previous inhabitants of the house didn't leave you a note with the energy information, you can simply head over to our dedicated guide and find out who your new supplier is.

Heading over to E.ON's website is a easy way to find out all about their available tariffs. However, having a chat with one of our experts will provide you with impartial information about their energy plans. Switch Plan provides a free service to advise you on all of your options. So, give us a ring on 0330 054 0018 and our experts can talk you through all your available options.

Moving house can be a daunting process, but at Switch Plan we want to make it as easy as possible. In Hampshire, EDF is the most popular energy provider. However, this might not mean that they have the best plans for you and your energy needs. Remember, you can give us a ring on 0330 054 0018 to talk through your energy options.

Who are my gas & electricity distribution network operators in Hampshire?

Who distributes electricity to Hampshire's 212,578 households?

Electricity distribution networks carry electricity from the high voltage transmission grid to domestic users. You may have to contact them for matters such as moving your meter, setting up electricity in a new city property and they intervene to fix power cuts.

Electricity also arrives through a more complex system than we are ever made privy to. A high voltage transmission grid is the source of electricity, which is then transported to domestic users through electricity distribution networks. These are companies that hold special licenses that allow them to distribute electricity through the National Grid and transport it safely to your home. They are in charge of more complex issues, such as setting up electricity in a newbuild, or solving powercuts in your area.

UK Power Networks is the DNO in Hampshire. Should you ever need to contact them, there contact details are below.

Who is my local gas distributor in Hampshire?

How gas and electricity travels around the country seems somewhat of a mystery. If only it could stay that way! However, it's quite important that you know how gas is actually delivered to your home, should you encounter any sort of problem or difficulty. Usually, you can get in touch with your energy supplier for questions about energy provision and distribution, but just in case, here's a quick recap.

Before gas can actually arrive in your house to keep you warm and cook your food, it is actually transported through a pretty complex system of pipes that form the Gas Distribution Network in the UK. There are actually 8 gas distribution systems which are controlled by 4 gas distribution companies. They are in charge of all the transportation of gas around the country and, for this reason, you'll probably never need to get in touch with them. Your supplier will be able to provide you with all the information you need about your energy supply, as well as any advice you may need. However, should you need to get in touch with a concern or gas emergency, you can give them a ring on 0800 912 1700.

How can I contact my network distributor in Hampshire?

You can usually just get in touch with your energy supplier for all the information you need about your gas and electriCity.
