British Gas Lite FAQs
Yes, you can pay by Direct Debit.
Commercial energy supplies generally come under a contract, which will automatically renew each year. If you want to change supplier, you need to give your current supplier a minimum of four weeks' notice.
However, if you are new to the premises then you won't automatically be placed in a contract, so you are free to find a new contract when you wish. We recommend that you do this as soon as possible because most suppliers charge high "out of contract" rates.
A kWh is a measurement which equates to how much energy you’re using. Energy suppliers will charge an amount of money for each kWh unit rate you use for both gas and electricity.
The price that energy suppliers charge depends on your contract and market conditions. For example, an energy supplier may charge 32p per kWh of electricity you use.
