uin	214542
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/11/2014 answer text <p>The decision to pass on any costs incurred while switching a customer’s supply is a commercial decision for the company. Energy suppliers do not require an upfront payment from customers on a credit meter who are switching to them. Some suppliers will charge if an incoming customer wants to switch from a prepayment meter to a credit meter. The following table shows the energy supply companies that do make such charges and the level of that charge. These suppliers may waive charges for vulnerable consumers or in certain circumstances.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><em>Supplier </em></p></td><td><p><em>Charge for gas PPM </em></p></td><td><p><em>Charge for electricity PPM </em></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Npower</strong></p></td><td><p>£60</p></td><td><p>£60</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Scottish Power</strong></p></td><td><p>£62.90</p></td><td><p>£45.91</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>SSE</strong></p></td><td><p>£52.00</p></td><td><p>£52.00</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Co-op</strong></p></td><td><p>£69.02</p></td><td><p>£66.15</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Ebico</strong></p></td><td><p>£52.00</p></td><td><p>£52.00</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matthew Hancock question first answered 24/11/2014 16:39:06 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
