What is Total Gas & Power’s Default MOP Charge?
Total Default MOP charges are applied when you have not appointed your own provider for these services.
What is a MOP?
MOP stands for Meter Operator, and it is their role to provide and maintain your electricity meter and communications, typically on a five year lease contract. If you see a Meter Operator Charge on your supply bill, this is a default MOP charge. The charge gets passed through when the customer has not appointed their own provider for this service. We have seen Total bill customers as much as £45/month, £540/year for default MOP charges. This is way too expensive. We have been able to deliver customers as much as 70% savings on default MOP charges: savings of £380/year. Get in touch today to see if we can arrange similar savings for your account. It is certainly better to have an extra £280/year in your account rather than pay this out to Total!
Be Careful!
We have come across instances when Total and other suppliers have double billed clients for MOP. If you have your own MOP contract in place, and suspect you are being double billed in error, please get in touch, Direct Power can help to arrange a credit for any erroneous double billing.
The moral is, pay attention to the line items buried on your bill. Complacency is easy and understandable when it comes to reconciling your monthly electricity bill, but pay attention as there may be significant savings to be found! If you suspect double billing, or don’t understand anything get in touch with Direct Power. At the very least we can answer your questions about MOP services. At the very best we can find you significant savings on MOP services.
