A large majority of utility suppliers will generate your invoice(s) using estimated meter readings, as they are only legally obliged to take an actual reading once every two years. Utility suppliers using estimated meter readings to calculate your consumption means that you could be significantly underpaying or overpaying on your bills. In order to reduce this risk, we have added the “Invoice Validation Service” to our portfolio. Using our very own bespoke software we are now able to analyse and validate your utility invoices, effectively removing the stress associated with inaccurate billing. To find out more about this service please contact a member of our team.

Need help with site works? Do you have a new property that requires a new supply or reconnection?

Then let Power 4 Pubs arrange this for you. We have successfully arranged hundreds of meter installations on behalf of Pub Retailers and Pub Companies over the years. We work alongside you throughout the project, from ascertaining the initial requirements of the site, to identifying the most appropriate supplier and having the actual meter installed.

Energy efficient lighting has come a long way since its’ inception, from the bright white light that altered the mood and feel of your bar or restaurant, to the modern bulbs that help maintain the desired ambience of your pub. With the range of options available today, there is an extensive range of stylish energy efficient lights to cater to your needs.

Energy Efficent Bulbs have always been a bright idea as they help save you money and help save the environment. They use up to 80 per cent less electricity than a standard light bulb, and produce the same amount of light.

With this in mind we have brought on board an Energy Efficient Lighting partner in “Go Green Lighting” who offer a huge variety of Energy Efficient Lighting products.

Through our partner we can also arrange for a site visit to take place where our representative will conduct a like for like comparison of your existing lighting against that of using Energy Efficient Lighting. You will be amazed at the difference this could make to your business.

We will also log your renewal date so that we can remind you when your contract is coming to an end to help you avoid any large price increases.

In addition, if you have supplied us with an email address, we will regularly update you with our latest news and products via our newsletter. As our client base continues to grow, so too does our product portfolio. As well as Electricity and Gas products, we are working hard to develop strong operational relationships with industry partners, which will enable us to offer you a wide range of energy saving devices.

As you’re probably aware each electricity/gas supplier requires you to give them a termination notice to end your contract(s) with them. What you may not be aware of is that different suppliers require a different notice period to be given, some as much as three months before the end of the contract.

Every supplier should send you a Renewal Notice in writing informing you that your contract(s) are due for renewal and give details of the new price(s), the term of the new contract and a date for you to respond by should you so wish to cancel the contract. The renewal notices do not always arrive and/or arrive after the response date, which then ties you the retailer into a new contract at an increased price and for a term of up to three year. Once the renewal window has passed the contract comes into force and you are tied in for the duration.

How can you avoid this?

At the bottom of this page is a form where you can log your future renewals. Once logged, we will then contact you nearer the time of your renewal to remind you and help you avoid these large price increases.

What should I do next?

1. Don’t put it off until it’s too late! – Even if you have just rolled over in to a new contract log your renewal now whilst its fresh in your mind and we can contact you nearer the time.
2. Be proactive don’t wait for the supplier to inform you, as the renewal notice may never arrive. Contact your supplier to find out what the contract end date is.
3. Calculate where your Renewal Window will fall from the contract end date your supplier has provided. (Please see table below – Notice Requirements)
4. Give your supplier Termination Notice in advance, this can always be withdrawn at a later date should you decide to accept the renewal prices quoted.

Below is a list of cancellation notice requirements for a number of suppliers:-

*If your supplier isn’t listed you can contact your supplier or Power 4 Pubs who will be able to advise you on this.
