Common use of Meter Charges Clause in Contracts

Meter Charges. You agree to pay us those charges that we are required to pay to the Meter Provider or incur ourselves where work is carried out at the meter, including but not limited to: – damage to a meter if the damage is your fault; – carrying out a meter accuracy test if you ask for this and we do not find a fault with the meter; – warrants of entry that may have to be applied for; or – visits to your premises relating to inspecting or changing your meter. For details on current applicable charges please visit our website at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ or call our customer helpline on 0800 1 070 732. We adopt procedures, which aim to avoid disconnecting your premises, if you have difficulty in paying your bills. A Code of Practice setting these out is available on request (see section 15). Nonetheless, we reserve the right to cut off your supply in the following circumstances. – you have broken the terms of this Agreement; – you refuse to provide a security deposit when we ask you to or you do not allow us to install a pay-as-you-go keypad meter, or a pay-as- you-go keypad meter cannot reasonably be installed; – it is not reasonable, in all the circumstances, for us to supply you; or – you refuse to provide us with all the details that we require to register you for a supply. You must pay any reasonable costs we ask for if we have to cut off your supply for any of these reasons. Costs may include the cost of visits to your premises. Provided it is reasonable for us to supply you, we will reconnect your supply when the matter has been resolved. You must pay us any reasonable costs for the reconnection. We may also cut off your electricity supply if we have to do so by law or in an emergency. Your supply may also be cut off by the Network Operator from time to time, for example, to carry out repairs or maintenance to the network. We may ask the Network Operator to cut off supply on our behalf.
