    Hey,

    Just wondering if its possible to get an account switch back to the previous holder on here...

    Basically i've left my apartment(lease was up) and i'd like to transfer the account back to the landlord name etc...Thing is i'm way for the next few days and won't be able to contact the 1850 number to do this over the phone, as the account is in my name i'm the only one able to do the transfer, correct?

    Cheers in advance for ye help

    Yes, that should be no problem. All the information you need to provide is detailed here. If you send us your account information by PM we can look after this for you.

    It's recommended that you do; however, a landlord or letting agency can close the account on your behalf. For example, if they are opening an account in a new tenant's name, this would automatically close your own account.

    The only exception is where a gas account is being opened; only the incoming customer registering for the account can open it (a third party such as a landlord or letting agency cannot do this on their behalf).

    If you have any other questions we'll be happy to help.

    Regards,
    David
