Engie Energy Bill Payment FAQ
How often will I get a Engie Energy bill?
Your billing cycle depends on the fuel type, and type of meter attached to your house.
- Electricity with a standard analogue meter: Every three months unless there’s an issue accessing your meter
- Electricity with a smart meter: At least once every 30 days
- Gas: Every three months unless you live in Victoria in which case it’s every two months
If you have a smart meter and are on a three-month electricity billing cycle, you can choose to switch to monthly billing. However, you cannot switch from monthly to quarterly. In addition, if you set up a payment plan, you can choose to pay in smaller instalments such as weekly, fortnightly, or monthly
Why was my bill higher than expected?
If you find your latest energy bill is higher than expected, it could be for one of these reasons:
- Change in the weather: If the weather has recently changed, you might have started running your heater or aircon more, which can bump up your energy costs, this can be even more if you have a pool as well.
- Changes to your home: If you recently bought a new appliance, renovated, upgraded your home, you might experience a higher energy bill.
- Change in energy price: While all energy companies need to let you know about price changes, if your energy rates or daily supply charge went up you might pay more for your energy
