Questions people ask
What is Duke Energy's standard price?
It is the price you pay if you never picked another company.
Today it is 99.49 cents per Ccf. A Ccf is one hundred cubic feet of gas (Ccf on your bill).
Your bill may call it the Standard Service Offer.
It follows the market price of natural gas, so it changes every month.
Is it safe to switch?
Yes. Your gas stays on. Duke Energy still delivers your gas and sends your bill.
Only the price part of your bill changes.
You can go back to Duke Energy's standard price later. Check your contract for a fee to leave early.
How do I switch?
Call the company you pick, or sign up on its website. You don't call your utility.
Have your Duke Energy bill ready. The company will ask for a number from it.
Look for your account number near the top of your bill. Ask the company which number it needs.
The new company tells Duke Energy for you.
How long do I have to change my mind?
You have 7 business days to cancel for free after Duke Energy mails you a letter about the change.
Weekends and holidays don't count.
To cancel, call Duke Energy at the number on its letter.
What happens when a price plan ends?
The company must mail you a notice 45 to 90 days before your plan ends.
If the plan starts again on its own, you may get a second notice. It must show the new price.
Come back to Judy Saves when the notice comes. We will check your choices again.
If you get gas from Enbridge, Columbia, CenterPoint or Duke and never picked a supplier, your price is set fresh each month. Here is how, in plain words.
