Out of contract rates apply when an energy contract between the customer and supplier comes to an end and no new or alternative rate is put in place. When a gas or electricity contract expires, the rates for supply revert to a default charge — otherwise known as the out of contract rate.

A deemed contract is a contract imposed by law between SEFE Energy (or any other supplier) and a consumer when there is no existing contractual relationship.
This most often occurs when a new tenant moves into a property. In such circumstances, the customer is charged the deemed rate by the property’s existing gas or electricity supplier.
Deemed contract rates are generally higher than standard contract rates.
You can read more about deemed rates in our Help & Support section here.
Out of contract and deemed rates may be more expensive than rates available under a contract. To avoid paying more than necessary, we recommend you try to move off this rate as quickly as possible. Request a quote online, and someone will be in touch soon.
