I'm moving into a new home, and I need an electricity contract. What do I do?

Contact the customer service of your chosen electricity provider well in advance of the desired start date of the electricity contract. We recommend signing the contract 14 days before the start date of the contract.

The electricity provider of your choice will notify us of your electricity contract, and we will turn on the electricity according to the notice on the start date of the contract.

I've moved to a new apartment, and I forgot to sign an electricity contract. What do I do?

Call the customer service of the electricity provider of your choice so that the contract can enter into force as soon as possible. Be prepared that, at the time of moving in, the apartment may not have electricity or it may be cut off unexpectedly. Network companies are obliged to cut off electricity from apartments without electricity contracts.

I've bought a detached house and I'm moving in. Is it enough for me to sign an electricity contract for my new address?

It is not enough to sign an electricity contract. In real estate deals, it is important to keep in mind that the electricity and district heating connections are movable property and do not automatically transfer to the new owner. The transfer of the subscriptions is therefore always worth mentioning in the deed of sale. Without a valid written explanation, we cannot transfer the connection contract. In this case, the buyer may have to enter into a new connection contract and pay a connection fee in accordance with the price list.
