<p>Ofgem Licence Conditions currently require energy supply companies to provide their
customers with a notification, no earlier than 49 days and no later than 42 days before
the end of their fixed term contract is due to end.</p><p> </p><p>From 11 February
2019 this rule will be one of many, replaced by principles-based rules on customer
communications that will provide flexibility on when notifications can be sent. These
principles will require suppliers to send notices before the end of a fixed term deal
at a time designed to prompt customers to take action, while also leaving reasonable
time for the customer to make an informed choice about the tariff options available.</p><p>
