Credit Billing Services

Accurate and transparent billing services.

Ensuring your customers receive accurate energy bills on time

We want to make a lasting difference to people’s lives by providing quality affordable energy billing solutions with payment options to suit their personal requirements. Our extensive experience in the industry and our knowledge through previous schemes has taught us that it is imperative to be transparent, open and honest on standing charges and ensure that residents have a variety ways to pay their energy bill.

We provide a monthly billing service (or quarterly if required) for various types of energy consumed, including; heating, cooling, electricity, cold water, domestic hot water and gas.  Our credit billing service is preferred by residents as it enables them to budget better and understand their consumption. We also offer a range of payment options, including Direct Debit, online, telephone and PayPoint.

If a resident is struggling to pay their bill we can offer payment plans if required.

We have a team of well-trained professional call handlers who can take billing enquiries and explain tariffs and standing charges to residents. Our customer services line is available 24/7/365 and is a local rate number.

Online account

Our resident portal my.switch2.co.uk puts the resident in control of their account. They can use the portal to pay energy bills, access history, view and download bills and submit meter readings. To find out more click here.

We have a wide expertise in energy billing, from issuing bills to our enhanced debt management services to ensure you receive payment. We are compliant with the latest legislation in the community heating sector including the Heat Network (metering and billing) Regulation 2014, and are founding members of the Heat Trust, which is set up to protect residents on communal heating.
