Origin Energy question
Looking for a bit of advice, tried the search function but it didn't answer my questions
We've had a generic "to the occupier" letter from Origin Energy, saying to call them and setup an account, otherwise our natural gas supply will be switched off. We moved into this rental house 5 weeks ago, our first since moving to Melbourne in September.
My question is this. I've already set up all the gas / electric accounts through AGL, so why are Origin Energy wanting me to do the same for the gas ? Is it legit or is it the same as back in the UK, where uncle tom cobbley and all want you to sign your life away for supposedly cheap utility bills ??
Cheers
Mike

Phone OE, and compare rates with AGL. They might be cheaper. If not give them what for.
