If you cant get to a charging outlet and you run out of gas or electricity, you can use
the emergency credit on your prepayment meter. When your credit is running low, you
may hear a warning bleep. Just insert your key or card to release the emergency credit.
A prepayment meter normally has 6 of emergency credit. (This amount may vary, so
please contact us to check.) You can then pay back the value of any emergency credit youve
used the next time you top up your key or card.

Y
ou should use emergency credit only if its
absolutely necessary.
F or your safety, we advise you not to use
up all of your emergency credit. If you do,
your electricity or gas will turn off whilst
your appliances may be running.
P lease make sure all your electrical and gas
appliances are switched off before you put
your recharged key or card into your meter.
If you cant charge your key or card at your usual PayPoint, Payzone or Post Office, visit

If you stop charging your key or card, your energy supply will stop. This usually happens when
customers havent added credit to their meter. In some cases, if you dont use your energy
supply for an extended period, this may cause safety problems. If youre struggling to top up
your key or card please call us on 0800 015 1733 and well try to help you find a solution.
