I received a phone call from Josh R this morning and as usual I thought it was another spam call, so I did not answer straight away then I heard this voice which I could understand, and that's what made me continue with the call, anyway we got into the subject of power, which by the way I had just switched my power over with another call center to and I wasn't sure if it was the same company I had just spoke to earlier this week, then he actually checked to see if it was, but it wasn't and then went on to explain to me about who the company he was promoting is and how they are would be servicing our area and how much cheaper it was etc and I just liked the way that he approached the whole subject, he ended up convincing me that the company he was sharing with me was the way to go and so I signed up. He's great on the phone and it was great to actually speak to someone without an accent and fully understand what they are saying the very 1st time they said something. Thank you Josh R

Energy Connections Across Australian States

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about utility connections, moving home and setting up energy at your new address.

View all
What is a utility connection service?
A utility connection service helps organise services such as electricity, gas and internet when you move. Move-In Connect can compare available options and arrange eligible connections around your move-in date.
How do I set up an energy connection at a new address?
Start with your new address and move-in date. We can check available retailers and help arrange your energy connection before you move into the property.
How much does an electricity connection cost?
Your retailer or distributor may charge an electricity connection fee depending on your state, meter and connection type. Move-In Connect's service itself is free to customers.
Can you help with a new house electricity connection?
Yes. A new house electricity connection may require extra work if the property needs a meter or has never been connected. These connections generally need more time than reconnecting an existing property.
Can I connect electricity in Melbourne before moving in?
Yes. If you're moving house in Melbourne, connection timing depends on your distributor, retailer, meter type and booking cut-off. Eligible smart-meter properties may be eligible for faster connections.
Can you arrange moving utilities for renters?
Yes. Renters can arrange electricity, gas and internet for a new rental. Check your lease first to see whether any utilities are already included.
Do I need to change energy retailers when I move?
Not necessarily. You may be able to stay with your existing retailer or compare other energy retailers available at your new address before choosing a plan.
