Electricity retailers in Melbourne offer financial incentives to secure new deals. With GoSwitch, you get to speak with a call centre energy expert. Take the opportunity to ask questions about Victorian energy and the different plans on offer, such as:

• Does my current electricity supplier offer incentives?
• Do other electricity suppliers offer incentives?
• What conditions are attached?
• Are the incentives for the lifetime of the contract?
• What happens to the contract when incentives expire?
• Can I combine electricity and gas?
• Which plans offer greater flexibility?
• Am I eligible for energy rebates?
• Are there solar feed-in tariffs and green power plans available?

The electricity rates (tariffs) you pay are a combination of daily supply charges from regional distribution networks and usage charges from companies such as Energy Australia, Dodo, and AGL. Tariffs can be adjusted to save on monthly power bills. Tariffs include:

• Single rate tariffs where the kW/h rate remains the same 24/7
• Time-of-use tariffs (peak, shoulder, off-peak)
• Controlled load tariffs for stand-alone appliances such as a hot water cylinder

GoSwitch will find competitive Melbourne electricity usage rates well below the reference price.

The energy market in Melbourne is a competitive marketplace for electricity retailers. In addition, there is the Victorian Government default offer (VDO) overseen by the Australian Energy Regulator (AER). GoSwitch can compare all offers against the Victorian default offer, allowing you to establish tariffs well below energy retailer market offers. Prior to making the switch to a better deal, it’s worth understanding a little more about energy contracts. Here are a few things to look for.

• Contract term : Lock-in or no lock-in contracts
• Cooling off period : A 10-day window for a full refund if you change your mind
• Eligibility : We can inform you if the gas supply is available in your area
• Terms and conditions : The fine print for individual plans and bundle deals
• Contract expiry : Exit fees or no exit fees
• Incentives : Lots to explore, including pay-on-time incentives using direct debit
• Updates : Keep in touch with regular communication and updates

You will need to organise the disconnection of power at your current address, and re-connection of power at your new address. If required, your GoSwitch energy expert can guide you through the entire process to ensure you have electricity, gas, internet or phone the moment you arrive at your new home. The GoSwitch price comparison service is also available in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, and the ACT. Use our service for a cost-effective interstate move.

Retailers advertise discounts and incentives. You can find savings on:

Conditional discounts that apply when certain conditions are met, such as on-time electricity bill payment.

Guaranteed discounts that apply for part (or all) of the electricity deal contract term, such as renewable energy rebates for setting up a solar system.

Choosing the right provider, retailer and electricity plan can significantly lower your energy costs. The GoSwitch comparison service will show you how you can save for your home or business, and a GoSwitch energy specialist is on hand to advise you of every available money-saving measure worth taking. You could potentially save hundreds of dollars annually compared to the default energy tariff on Melbourne energy bills.
