All of these products can be purchased online directly via their website.
If you have found that either you are currently on a Southern Electric standard tariff (meaning you are paying the highest prices they offer) or you want to switch from your current provider then it is a lot easier than you think.
All you need do is to sign up to the tariff of your choice and once Southern Electric have your details they will make all the necessary arrangement to place you on your new rates and prices and terminate the contract with your current supplier. You'll get a notification to take a meter reading for the transfer of the contract and everything else is managed by Southern Electric. There will also be no interuption in your supply.
These days most utility companies allow you to manage your account online and for some tariff prices you must manage your account online. So what does this mean ? Overall it means you won't get another paper bill but an email when it is due. Then you can go to your online account and see the details of the bill rather like if you had it right in front of you. You can also enter your own meter readings which means your bills will always be accurate and not estimated. This puts you totally in control.
The two main piece of advice anyone in the energy sector will tell you is :
If you are on a standard Southern Electric tariff and pay when you receive the bill either by cheque or perhaps down the Post Office, simply by switching to their discounted tariff and choosing to pay by fixed monthly direct debit can save you 10-15% just by doing that so it's worth choosing these options and to manage your account online.
