IMPORTANT: NEW LPG CUSTOMERS.

Please note that we are unable to accept any new LPG customers at this time. This is due to a temporary  shortage of LPG bottles. We expect this to be resolved at the start of Feb 2025.

    2. If your current meter set up is incorrect, we will place you on the correct pricing plan that matches your meter.
  1. If the change to the meter type or meter set up in clause 4 above means your new price will be higher than your current fixed price and (if applicable) you did not request the change of meter type, we will terminate your fixed price plan and:
    1. move your electricity supply to an open-term plan and Mercury standard rates will apply; and
    2. you will not be charged an early termination fee.

    1. You cancel within 10 days of your fixed price plan confirmation letter (meaning you will be deemed not to have taken up this offer and our standard rates will apply during that period); or

Moving

    1. You can take your fixed price plan with you so long as your move is within the same network and your new property has the same meter type; or
