I think it was a day or two, then I switched. Because the credit was already in my account, I wasn’t too fussed about it. I was more worried about the potential loss of the $100 extra sign in bonus (Westpac customer), but that came through a month later as well as planned. But with charging about 150kWh per week between our vehicles, waiting a month to switch to the EV plan would have cost us about $75 in extra electricity anyway.
Thanks, that's great to know - I'll keep an eye on the account balance daily once the service moves over to AGL next month.
(Hopefully) once the credit is applied, I'll changeover to the EV plan.
I haven't changed over a plan so soon after it starts / the monthly billing cycle starts - isn't it a normal practice for utilities in that plans change only once the current billing cycle is up?
ie. You generally can't have 2 days on Plan A and then changeover and have Plan B for the remaining 28 days? Would be ideal if it did so I could take advantage of the cheaper midnight-6am rate immediately!
