How long does it take to switch my business’ electricity and gas across?

A switch usually takes 3 days from the date of your sign-up. Or, you can choose the day you'd like to switch in advance.  

Your switch may take longer if your current supplier objects to it

If this happens, you’ll need to contact them to discuss the objection. Once that’s sorted, we can restart your switch. It’ll take 3 days from that point.
