We recommend that you provide us with at least 3 business days’ notice to organise your electricity and gas connection.

Depending on where you live and whether or not the property has been disconnected, if your new premises is in Victoria, New South Wales or South Australia, you are not required to be at the premises to have your property connected.  However, please remember to set your main electrical switch to off.

If you are in Queensland, a Visual Safety Inspection (VSI) is required by law.  This requires an adult to be at the premises and a time slot between 8am & 6pm can be requested.

For an urgent electricity connection, 1300 345 847 (Monday – Friday, 8am – 7pm AEST). Extra fees may apply for urgent service.  Natural gas connections can take up to three business days, so we’ll need a bit more notice.

 

Please ensure that there is clear access to your electricity and gas meters, remember to set your main electrical switch to off, so we can complete your request safely.

If you don’t have access to your new property yet, contact your real estate agent to turn the main switch off.

If in Queensland, you will need a Visual Safety Inspection.

 

If you are not with us, contact your old energy provider to disconnect your old premises and get your final bill.

If you are a Dodo Power and Gas customer, call us on 13 36 36 (Monday – Friday, 8am – 7pm AEST) to disconnect your old premises and connect the new property.  We need a minimum of 3 business days’ notice for a disconnection/connection.
