What constitutes a “valid” selection?
The utility considers a selection valid when you submit your choice through one of the accepted submission methods on or before the program’s deadline. Confirmation codes have expiration dates. The utility consider the first valid selection they receive as your final choice. Make sure to record your verification number if you’re submitting your selection online. If you mail in your selection form, you’ll need to sign it for us to consider it valid.
What if I don’t make a selection?
If you don’t submit a valid selection on or before the deadline, your account automatically rolls over to your current supplier and your current pricing option at a price the Choice Gas supplier determines.
What if I move during the Choice Gas program year?
If you move from one service address to another or a new customer moves to a service address within the Choice Gas territory, that customer will continue with the supplier previously selected for that address. The utility will mail new construction customers a selection packet.
