Ways To Pay For Your Gas & Electricity

Paying your energy bill your way


As an energy supplier who puts our members first, we have lots of different ways that you can pay for your gas and electricity. The easiest way is via a monthly direct debit as your payments will come out automatically, but there are other options available, as outlined below.
