Everything you need to know – and what to do next
What’s happened?
Rebel Energy has ceased trading. This means the company is no longer supplying energy, and all customer accounts are being transferred as part of the Ofgem Supplier of Last Resort (SoLR) process.
What does this mean for me?
First, the good news:
Your energy supply will not be cut off. Gas and electricity will continue to flow as normal.
Your credit is protected. Ofgem ensures that any money you’ve paid into your Rebel Energy account will be honoured by the new supplier.
You don’t need to cancel anything. Ofgem will appoint a new energy supplier to take over your account.
Has a new supplier been appointed yet?
At the time of writing, Ofgem has not yet announced a new supplier. Once a new supplier is confirmed, they’ll contact you with information about your new account, tariffs, and what happens next.
Until then, your supply remains uninterrupted and your account is in a holding state.
Should I wait or switch now?
You have two options:
Option 1: Wait for Ofgem to appoint a supplier
This is a valid choice. If you prefer to wait, we recommend:
Taking a meter reading now and keeping a record, in case there are any billing questions later.
Avoid cancelling your Direct Debit just yet – the new supplier may be able to transfer it over smoothly.
Watch out for communication from the new supplier – they’ll contact you directly.
Option 2: Switch to a supplier of your choice now
You don’t have to wait. You’re free to switch to a new supplier immediately. Many people choose this route to:
Avoid being moved onto a potentially expensive default tariff.
Choose a supplier that aligns with their values (e.g. renewable energy, customer service).
Lock in a competitive deal.
