Switching and moving your electricity plan with AGL

Switching

If you want to switch to AGL for your electricity needs, the process is fairly simple and straightforward.

Moving

If you’re an existing AGL customer who is moving home, you can arrange for your electricity connection to be moved online or over the phone. You can call AGL’s helpline any time of the day all through the week. They even have a separate number for hearing impaired customers. But do keep in mind that you’ll need to give a notice of one business day as well as safe access to the electricity meter before your connection can be moved. Do check on the eligibility criteria for moving your electricity connection in specific regional locations.

    Not trustworthy business.

    AGL sign up process was easy. App is useful for energy usage insights on the go. Bills are easy to read. Customer chat is responsive but that's where I then draw the line. I no longer trust AGL. When I reached out to their customer support for financial support telling them that the existing payment plan was unsustainable they instead offered me a payment plan at a higher rate. Then I enquired about a change of plan. They explicitly told me that their new Netflix plan was cheaper. Since they said it was cheaper I agreed to move to it. I wish I had paid more attention because it turns out that it's not cheaper at all. Their new rate was +2c more for general, +3c for demand and +10c for supply. Then they're also charging a card payment processing fee and whatever else they feel they can scab off customers and then add a Netflix plan on top. So literally every rate was more expensive, they tried to push me to a more unaffordable payment agreement and offered me absolutely nothing. When I told them of my reasons for asking for support and so on they offered to mail me forms for a hardship program (yes, mail - snail mail, post, not email). They're just cold hearted salesmen with no customer service skills or empathy. I'm switching retailers, I don't trust AGL anymore.

    Quality lender

    AGL have always been a great energy provider. I feel confident in them as they have been around for a long time and are local. When I phone with any questions, they answer in a timely manner - not on hold for long minutes or hours. Their app is user friendly and helps answer many of the smaller queries I have at times.

    AGL for electricity and gas

    I love the fact that AGL help you stay connected with your electricity, if you need help all you have to do is ring them and discuss what you can do. And because of this, I am now in credit with my electric bill!
