Business energy contract end-date reminder

The straight answer

Give it your contract end date and your notice period and it works out when to start pricing, when notice is due and when the contract lapses — then hands you a calendar file with all three, reminders included. Nothing is sent anywhere; it runs entirely in your browser.

Put the date somewhere you will see it

Enter your contract end date and how much notice your supplier requires. The tool works out the dates that actually matter — when to start pricing, when notice is due, and when you would drop onto out-of-contract rates if nothing happens — and gives you a calendar file to import into Outlook, Google Calendar or anything else.

Why six months

Suppliers will price a contract up to around twelve months ahead of the start date, so you can lock a rate long before your current deal ends. Starting six months out gives you time to price more than once, to catch a good day rather than the day your deadline lands on, and to serve notice without a rush. Leaving it to the last fortnight means taking whatever the market is doing that week.

Serving notice does not commit you to leaving

This is the part that catches people out. A termination notice simply removes the supplier's ability to roll you onto a contract you did not negotiate. You can still renew with the same supplier afterwards if their price wins — and it sometimes does. See do business energy contracts auto-renew?
