Yes, you will get a partial refund for your security deposit.

SP Group currently collects a security deposit from all consumers when they open their utilities account. The security deposit covers electricity as well as non-electricity (i.e. water and town gas) services.

The amount of security deposit required by SP Group from residential consumers is published here.

When you switch to buy electricity from an electricity retailer, the security deposit with SP Group will be split between your electricity and non-electricity accounts. The amount of security deposit allocated to your electricity account (65% of the security deposit) will be used to offset any outstanding charges with SP Group. Any remaining security deposit allocated to your electricity account will be used to offset future non-electricity charges. Alternatively, you may request SP Group to refund the remaining security deposit allocated to your electricity account to you.

There are several reasons why your electricity bill can be higher than expected.

1. One reason is an underestimated bill in the previous month. Consumers using cumulative meters have their meter readings taken by SP Group every 2 months. (E.g. January, March, May, July)

On months when your meter is not read, your usage is estimated based on an Energy Market Authority approved methodology which takes the average daily use of the last 2 readings, multiplied by the number of days in the current billing period.

When usage during estimated months are over or undercharged, the balance is brought forward to the following month. Hence, if your estimated consumption was undercharged, this may be why you see higher electricity bills than expected even though your household electricity consumption may be low in the new month.

2. Another reason for higher electricity bills is due to higher consumption. This can be due to factors such as:

• Higher usage due to school holidays or more occupants being home during the period
• New member in the family (e.g. A newborn baby)
• Recent purchase of new additional electrical appliances installed
• More frequent baths or higher laundry loads
• During the hotter weather from May to August, electrical appliances such as air-conditioners have to work harder to bring down the room temperature to the same desired temperature.
• More days in the billing period which can vary from 28 to 34 days.
• Regulated tariff changes
