Changes to the Charges Sample Clauses
The "Changes to the Charges" clause defines the process and conditions under which the fees or charges specified in an agreement may be modified during the contract term. Typically, this clause outlines how and when the service provider can increase or decrease charges, such as requiring advance written notice to the client or limiting changes to specific circumstances like regulatory updates or inflation adjustments. Its core practical function is to provide transparency and predictability regarding pricing, ensuring both parties understand how and when charges may change and reducing the risk of unexpected costs or disputes.
Changes to the Charges. Not less than 60 days prior to the expiry of the Initial Term or then current Further Term (as applicable) Kineo may notify the Customer of any changes to the Charges, which will apply on extension of the Term in accordance with Clause 2.2. If the Agreement has no end term Kineo reserves the right to increase any ongoing charge, but by no more than any annual Index on average wages increases (WPI).
Changes to the Charges. We can vary the amount, nature and structure of any of the Charges at any time by notice to you. We will give you notice of any change to the Charges or fees that affects you. The notice of variation may be by a message on your ▇▇▇▇. We’ll notify you no later than your next ▇▇▇▇ after the variation. If you are a Small Customer, we will also give notice of any variation to the Charges by publishing the new charges on our website. If the Charges change during a Billing Period then we’ll calculate your ▇▇▇▇ for that period on a proportionate basis and we may use average usage data over a Billing Period (or other period depending on availability of meter data) to do so.
Changes to the Charges. Unless we say we won’t do so in your Energy Plan or we are prevented from doing so by the Regulatory Requirements, we can vary the amount, nature and structure of any of the Charges at any time by notice to you. For example, we may vary the structure of: • your electricity usage charges from peak only charges to time of use charges; or • your GreenPower or Green Gas charges from a weekly amount to a charge based on the amount of energy you use. Or, if there is no charge when you take up your GreenPower or Green Gas product, then after 12 months, we may start to charge you. Unless you have taken up an Energy Plan which includes a fixed amount for your energy usage and supply charges, even if we say that we won’t vary certain Charges in your Energy Plan, we can still vary any of the Charges if: • any of the information we used in determining the Charges for energy is incorrect (such as your supply area or meter type); or • the meter at your Supply Address is changed from an accumulation meter to an interval meter. For Small Customers, we’ll notify you of any variation to Charges in accordance with Regulatory Requirements. Otherwise, we’ll notify you of any variation as soon as practicable, but no later than your next bill after the variation. The notice of variation may be by a message on your bill. If the Charges change during a Billing Period then we’ll calculate your bill for that period on a proportionate basis and we may use average usage data over a Billing Period (or other period depending on availability of meter data) (Average data) to do so. Similarly, if your Energy Plan or any feature or benefit only applies for part of a Billing Period then the impact on the Charges will be prorated and we may use Average data to do so. For example, if a benefit includes a discount on usage charges which applies for 1 month, we will use average usage data over the Billing Period to determine the discounted amount.
Changes to the Charges. 14.1 All charges set out in this Schedule 5 (Charges) are maximums and shall not be subject to increases except where:
(a) an increase in relation to specific charges has been agreed as a Change in accordance with the Change Procedure; and

Changes to the Charges. Unless we say we won’t do so in your Energy Plan (which we have done, for example, in the Rate Freeze Energy Plan), we can vary the Charges at any time by notice to you. This means we can vary the amount, nature and structure of any of the Charges. For example we may vary the structure of: • your electricity usage charges from peak only charges to time of use charges; or • your GreenPower or Green Gas charges from a weekly amount to a charge based on the amount of energy you use. Or, if there is no charge when you take up your GreenPower or Green Gas product, then after 12 months, we may start to charge you. The notice of variation may be by a message on your ▇▇▇▇. We’ll notify you as soon as practicable, but no later than your next ▇▇▇▇ after the variation. We can also vary the Charges by notice to you in the following limited circumstances, even if we have said we won’t do so in your Energy Plan: • if any of the information we used in determining the Charges for energy is incorrect (such as your supply area or meter type); or • if the meter at your Supply Address is changed from an accumulation meter to an interval meter. If the Charges change during a Billing Period then we’ll calculate your ▇▇▇▇ for that period on a proportionate basis. Similarly, if your Energy Plan only applies for part of a Billing Period then any discount under your Energy Plan will be prorated.
