Tenants moved out - changing utility provider

[Russ_H]

Quick question......

The tenants moved out a couple of months ago and were getting all their utilities through the Utilities Warehouse.
Am I under any obligation to carry on with the Utilities Warehouse until I swap to another provider immediately?

Reason for the swap is they appear to be expensive and require a £200 deposit. I think they're set up for people who have a dodgy credit history, no regular income, no bank account??

We've given the move out metre readings to Npower - do we have to deal with Utilities Warehouse at all?
We've never signed a contract with.

Cheers

no just ring british gas or whoever you want and tell them you want to join them as a customer asap and have the meter readings & date you took over ready.

I presume the utility warehouse thing was in the tenants name not yours?

Yep, in the tenants name.
In my mind I have no obligation to go with utility warehouse?
What happens during the change over from utility warehouse to Npower?

Thanks
