Are there any suppliers that cannot be informed?

At the moment, Notify can’t inform suppliers about properties linked to business meters because they often require a different notification process.

We're working on making this easier, but for now, these will need to be handled outside of Notify.

Here are the suppliers you’ll need to reach out to and how to do it. Jump to:
