3. For an electric-only switch: An electric supplier switch or a return to PECO could result in a short-bill. You will receive this bill within one week of your switch. Note: This may be a different time in the month than you usually receive your PECO bill. You will receive a short-bill every time you switch electric suppliers. This bill will include:
• Final charges from your previous supplier, from your last billing date through the effective date of your switch
• Any balance from your previous bill that you may have not paid yet.

You will receive another bill during your monthly meter reading cycle. This will include charges for the remaining bill period.

How do I switch or cancel?

Before switching or cancelling, check your supplier contract or ask your supplier if there is a fee to cancel.
