Credit checks
Like most energy companies, when you join Ecotricity we’ll run a credit check to make sure you’re able to keep up regular payments.
What kind of check do we make?
When you apply to switch to Ecotricity, we run a hard credit check with Equifax. This will be recorded on your credit history, so other organisations who look up your credit score in the future will see that a utility company has checked it.
What happens if my credit score is low?
We’ll need to request some more information from you before you join us.
