What this tool does
This interactive tool generates a properly formatted letter to notify your utility providers that you are moving home. It takes the essential details about your account and new circumstances, then creates a professional notice letter that covers everything the utility company needs to know.
The tool ensures you include all the critical information required for a smooth handover, such as your final meter readings, moving date, and forwarding address for your final bill.
When to use it
You should use this tool when you are moving house and need to formally notify gas, electricity, water, or other utility providers about your move. Most utility companies require written notice, and you typically need to give this notice at least 48 hours before your moving date, though earlier is better.
It is particularly useful if you want to ensure your final bill is accurate and sent to the right address, or if you need to avoid any confusion about responsibility for bills after you have moved.
How it works
You answer straightforward questions about your name, utility company details, account number, property address, final date, meter readings, and new address. You can also choose the tone of the letter and add any extra details that might be relevant to your situation.
The tool then generates a complete letter that you can send directly to your utility provider. Nothing you enter is saved, and you do not need to create an account to use it.
