How to Switch Energy Providers in 5 Simple Steps

Switching your electricity or natural gas provider is a straightforward process that requires no technical modifications to your installation. At GlobyPlus, we guide you through every step and handle the process on your behalf, helping you save time and choose the energy plan that best suits your needs, free of charge and with no obligation.

1. Get in Touch with GlobyPlus

Tell us about the needs of your home or business and which type of energy supply you are interested in: electricity, natural gas, or both. Based on your needs and consumption, we help you explore the available options and identify the plans that may be right for you.

2. We Compare Available Energy Plans

We review the available offers from energy providers and present you with the options that best match your requirements. Our goal is to help you evaluate pricing, contract terms, and any additional benefits, so you can make an informed decision with confidence.

3. Prepare the Required Documents

Once you have selected your preferred plan, we will let you know which documents are required. These may vary depending on whether the supply is for a residential or commercial property and on your customer status.

Typically, you may need a recent energy bill, identification documents, and your Greek Tax Identification Number (AFM). Additional documentation may also be required, depending on your circumstances:

  • For tenants: A copy of the registered lease agreement submitted through Greece's TAXISnet system.
  • For property owners: Proof of ownership, such as the E9 property declaration, where required.

Our team will guide you through the documentation process to help ensure your application is complete.

4. Sign the Energy Supply Contract

Once you have reviewed and agreed to the terms of your chosen plan, you proceed with signing the supply contract with your new provider. The process can be completed remotely, making it convenient and hassle-free. The GlobyPlus team will guide you through the necessary steps and assist you with submitting your application.

5. Your New Provider Handles the Switch

Once your application has been submitted and approved, the switch is completed in accordance with the procedures of the new provider and the relevant network operator.

In most cases, there is no need to replace or modify your existing meter, and your electricity or natural gas supply does not need to be interrupted solely because you are changing providers. The exact timeframe depends on your individual circumstances and the procedures involved.
