Our Power On program gives you support, info and options to get you back on top of your energy bills. We’re here to lessen the worry and can give you access to information and options to help you get on top of your energy bills… and stay there.
Flexible payment options and assistance
If you’re having trouble paying, we can help out with:
Flexible payment plan options
Information on Centrepay and how to set up a direct debit
Redirecting your bills to a third party at no charge (this helps when someone else is managing your bills)
Help with signing up for state concessions and rebates
A referral for financial counselling
An energy plan that best suits your needs.

Need more solutions for help?
If none of these options will work for you, we can still help. If you can’t pay the full cost of your ongoing energy usage, we can let you pay less than the full cost of your ongoing usage – while you find ways to use less energy.
We’ll check in to see how you’re going and work with you to help you pay your ongoing bills and reduce your energy costs.
Our Power On commitment to you
When you’re on Power On, we’ll:
Keep you connected
Always respect you and your situation
Apply our hardship policy consistently, fairly and transparently
Give you information to help you use less energy
Set up a payment plan to fit your capacity to pay
And we won’t initiate normal debt collection processes.
We promise to respect your privacy
We take your privacy seriously. No one else needs to know if you’re having a tough time. We’ll look after your personal and credit information exactly as per the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). Your financial information will only be used to assess your Power On application.

Work with us to use less energy and pay off your debt.
Stay in touch – let us know if anything changes.
