We can give you an estimate cost for your electricity bill based on your household size, your plan preferences and the suburb you’ll be moving to.
The exact number of electricity providers that you can choose from will depend on which QLD postcode you live in as different electricity providers service different areas.

Your electricity bills are a combination of a number of factors such as where you live, your plan options and your consumption patterns. That is why there is no one best energy provider across the Sunshine State. But, there will be the most suitable electricity plan for your home. Your final shortlist can again depend on various things say, if you just want the cheapest plan or if you care about good customer service or getting electricity generated from renewable sources.
Once you’ve got the list of available providers in your area through Mozo’s comparison tool, you can further filter your choice by reading reviews. Mozo has collected electricity reviews on major QLD electricity providers so you can read the opinions of real customers before you make your final choice of provider.
While the switch between providers does not take long, the actual time it may take for you to start receiving bills from your new provider depends on when your meter was last read. This can take anything from a few days to three months.
If you are moving premises, you will generally need to give 2 to 5 business days of notice to your electricity provider to move your account to the new Queensland address. If you need to move your electricity account on an urgent basis, you can call and request the provider to transfer the account faster. But make sure you’ve checked with your provider if they retail electricity at your new address and if they have any specific requirements you need to fulfil before facilitating the transfer. You don’t want to be in for a rude shock at the last moment.
No, you are not required to pay extra charges to switch your electricity provider in QLD if you are on an open contract. But, if you are on a fixed term account, you might need to pay an exit fee to terminate the contract early. If you are moving, some providers may charge a connection fee for setting up the service to your home. This cost is generally accounted for in your first bill. You should check with the provider for the exact specifications before you finalise the transfer.
Mozo makes money by helping energy providers connect with customers, like you, who are looking for a great energy deal. Most importantly our service is totally free to use and it is the energy providers competing for your business that pay Mozo, not you!

Good service, definitely a higher end retailer, but they have local customer service teams and are always willing to help. I see a lot of complaining about bills and connections... These are always difficult times. They were very fast changing my account to accomodate my solar system and called me without prompting to change me to the best deal available. They are a bit pricey (4 stars) but you get what you pay for.

While turning down the heating or forgoing the electric blanket on some nights is bound to save you some money on your household energy bill, the biggest savings could be accessed by switching to a better value plan.How much could you save? Well, our researchers found that on average, households could save $447 per year for residential electricity and $274 per year for residential gas by comparing providers^.If you are dreading the impact power hikes might have on your own electricity and gas bills this winter, it makes sense to do a quick price review.
