1.1.
The Contract is between Yuno Limited (“Yuno Energy”, “us”, “our” or

The Contract is a legally binding agreement. Both you and we
must comply with the Contract. We may take legal action against you if

2.1.
You promise that:
(a)
You are over 18 and can legally agree to enter into the Contract in
respect of the Supply of Energy to the Premises;
(b) You either live at or own the Premises;
(c)
On request from us, you shall confirm to us whether you are the owner

of your tenants;
(e) The Premises is connected to the Energy network;
(f)
You have given us and will provide to us on request, accurate details
about the Premises, the type of Meter installed and the amount of Energy
used at the Premises;
(g)
Some of our Tarriff’s (such as our Smart Services) require a smart Meter.
By signing up to such Tarriff’s you agree to have the smart Meter installed at
the Premises. For further information on smart Metering see Clause 21.
(h) You will keep us up to date concerning your postal address, email
address and phone number. In the event that you provide us with an
incorrect e-mail address and you do not furnish us with a correct email
address within a reasonable time, we reserve the right to change
your Tariff.
(i)
You will notify us if you are leaving the Premises and provide us with your
forwarding postal address and Meter reading for the purpose of final billing;
(j) You will download and use our App in order to access your Energy Bill
and avail of certain products and functionality.
(k)
You will provide us with all assistance and information required to
enable us to become the registered Supplier of Energy at the Premises and
to continue to Supply you with Energy at the Premises;
(l) On request from us you shall provide us with accurate readings in
respect of the Meter;
(m)
At all reasonable times during the term of the Contract you shall allow
us, GNI, ESBN, or any other person nominated by us, safe access to the
Premises for any reason that relates to the Supply of gas or electricity to
you or that relates to the Meter, including the need to inspect, read, install,
operate, test, calibrate, maintain, repair, renew, remove and/or disconnect
the Meter;
(n) You shall allow us, GNI, ESBN, or any other person nominated by us, safe
access to the Premises at any time in the case of an emergency.
2.2.
We have entered into the Contract in reliance on the information
provided by you in your application, which you confirm is accurate. If this
information changes you must tell us.
2.3.
It is your responsibility to pay due care and attention to the Usage of
the relevant Meter and you shall ensure that the Meter is not damaged or
interfered with, whether for repairs or any other purpose.
2.4.
You shall immediately notify us and/or GNI and/or ESBN, as relevant,
where you have reason to believe there has been any such damage
or interference.
2.5.
Tampering or interference of any sort with the relevant Meter,
including any related apparatus or components, poses serious risks to
the health and safety of the occupants and those in the surrounding area.
Interference of any sort to the safe Supply of gas and or electricity is a
criminal offence and may result in prosecution.
2.6.
By entering into the Contract, you have agreed to pay your Energy
Bill and any other amount under this agreement on time. If non-payment
for whatever reason results in a debt on your account or if you fail to meet
the terms of an agreed Payment Plan or agree to install a PAYG Meter we
can initiate disconnection of your Energy Supply to your Premises. Your
payments will be allocated to the particular fuel (being gas or electricity)
to which they relate and in the event of non-payment we may only
disconnect the fuel to which that non-payment relates. Your account may
display a debt flag in the event that you have not met our credit terms
and choose to change to another Supplier.

You acknowledge and confirm that Yuno Energy reserves the right to
charge you for all reasonable costs and/or Occasional Work Fees incurred

In the event that:
(i)
Your account is credited from an unlawful or unauthorised source, or
using a form or method of payment that you or any individual providing
such payment are not authorised to use; or
(ii)
there has been unauthorised use of Energy or theft of Energy or fraud
at the Premises then we reserve the right (without limiting any other
right or remedies we may have available to us at law) to re-charge your
account for the full amount of such credit and such other costs we may
incur as a result of such fraudulent activity. We will recover any amounts
that we reasonably believe are due and owing to us or to any third party
either involving you or by putting such level of prior charge on your Bill
as we see fit based on your Tariff, the Schedule of Service Charges and
validated readings or estimates provided to us by GNI and/or ESBN, as
relevant. For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 2.10 applies not only to
theft of Energy or fraud while we are your registered Supplier of Energy,
but also prior to the date on which we became your registered Supplier.
Where, in our reasonable belief, your account has been credited with a
payment method that is subsequently identified as being unauthorised or
fraudulently obtained, we reserve the right to recharge your account for
such unauthorised use; or
(iii)
You fail to pay by one of the payment methods agreed by us.
2.11 We may change the frequency of your Bills and change the tariff plan
you are on and we may also require you to pay a security deposit. We

4.10.
If you are the owner of the Premises but the gas and or electricity
will be supplied for use by, tenants in the Premises:
(a)
You understand that our Contract is with you alone and not with your
tenants and, you as our customer and the counterparty to the Contract
are responsible for actions of any user of our service at the Premises. It is
agreed that our acknowledgement that tenants may be using our services

to comply with all provisions of the Contract for its duration; and

You agree to take all steps necessary to bring the General Terms and
Conditions of the Contract to the attention of your tenants (including by
providing a copy of the Contract to your tenant) and, where appropriate,

provisions of the Contract; and

You acknowledge and agree that you are liable and agree to pay for all
and any Charges at the Premises including any Charges incurred after the
date of cessation of any tenancy arrangement which you have entered

of dealing.

supplied to the Premises pursuant to the Contract and that you will be
responsible for payment of all Charges and fees of whatsoever nature
lawfully incurred pursuant to the Contract until it is terminated in
accordance with Clause 10 (Ending the Contract). If you cease to occupy
the Premises you acknowledge that this does not relieve you of your legal

“Rebate” The company, at its absolute discretion may, from time
to time, offer a limited reduction in cost of electricity or gas supplied over
the course of the contract to certain customers. Conditions attaching to
such rebate will be determined solely by the company and are outlined
in this Clause. Such rebate may be targeted at potential or specific
customers in order to encourage such customers to join the company,
remain customers of the company or to incentivise a customer to recruit
additional persons to become customers of the company, or for any
other reason at the sole discretion of the company. For the avoidance of
doubt, any reference to “Bonus credits/welcome credits/sign-up credits/
retention credits” in marketing/publicity material is a reference to a
rebate. In order to avail of a rebate, it is conditional that the recipient is

and remains a customer of the company for the Initial Period. In the event
of the customer terminating their agreement with the company before
the expiry of the Initial Period, then, at the sole discretion of the company,
the customer will be obliged to repay the amount of any rebate received
during the Contract. For the avoidance of doubt, if the customer avails of
the rebate they will be deemed to have accepted these General Terms and
Conditions. The amount of any rebate taken up by the customer will be
reflected on the relevant Bill issued to that customer by the company as a
reduction on the cost of electricity payable for the Billing period.
5.
Deemed Contracts
5.1.
Where we are the registered Supplier at a Supply Point, you are the
occupier of the Premises and if you didn’t enter into the Contract with us
in any of the ways described above (in Clause 4), you will be deemed to
have accepted these General Terms and Conditions under a
Deemed Contract.
5.2.
If you are the owner or occupier of the Premises and we are
Supplying Energy pursuant to a Deemed Contract, you have a legal duty
to contact us or any other Supplier and enter into a Contract of Supply.
5.3.
The Deemed Contract will be between Yuno Energy and the owner
or occupier of the Premises that takes the Supply of Energy. The Deemed
Contract will start on the date when you begin to take Supply of Energy in
the absence of a contract for Supply and shall end on the date on which
we or another Supplier is registered as a Supplier of the Premises or on
the date on which we cease to Supply the Premises, whichever is the
earliest. Yuno Energy reserves the right to terminate the Deemed Contract
after 30 days of Supply if you have not already entered into a contract with
us or another Supplier for the Supply of Energy to that Premises. Where
disconnection is not possible for whatever reason, you will remain liable
for all the Charges under this Deemed Contract.
5.4.
When you are being supplied Energy under a Deemed Contract,
you will be charged one of our electricity and or gas Tariff’s (which shall
include applicable Charges, taxes and levies) for residential customers
for any electricity and or gas supplied. Our electricity and gas Tariff’s are
published on our website at www.yunoenergy.ie You are responsible for
the payment of electricity and gas supplied regardless of whether it is
based on actual or estimate Meter readings.
5.5.
We will write to the Premises giving notice that a Deemed Contract is
in place. The Commencement Date for the Deemed Contract will be the
date of the notice.
5.6.
A Deemed Contract is automatically created by applicable
Energy legislation, if:
(a)
you own or occupy the Premises; and
(b)
we Supply Energy to the Premises; and
(c)
we do not have a Contract with any other person for the Supply of
Energy to the Premises.
5.7.
Where a Deemed Contract applies, these General Terms and
Conditions will apply to the Supply of Energy to the Premises:
(a)
the Contract will start in accordance with the applicable
Energy legislation;
(b)
there will be no Initial Period and you may terminate the Deemed
Contract at any time without penalty by signing up to an agreement with
Yuno Energy or any other Supplier or by any of the Termination means
covered in Clause 10.
(c)
any method or process used to calculate the consumption of electricity
and gas for contracted customers will be applied to customers considered
to be under a Deemed Contract. For the avoidance of doubt this will
include Yuno Energy remotely receiving your ESBN smart Meter readings
from ESBN on a half hourly or bi monthly basis in accordance with our
Code of Practice on smart services and our Privacy Notice.
(d)
we will confirm any other relevant details when we write to you to
confirm that a Deemed Contract has arisen.
5.8.
In addition to the circumstances described elsewhere in the Contract,
a Deemed Contract will end when you or someone else enters into
another Contract for the Supply of Energy to the Premises (either with
us or another Supplier) and there is no restriction on you entering into a
Contract with any other Supplier.
5.9.
All other General Terms and Conditions (including payment terms)
will be as per the remainder of the Contract.
5.10.

Starting your Supply
7.1.
If we are already registered under the industry rules as the Supplier
of Energy to the Premises at the time the Contract starts, then we will
Supply Energy to the Premises under the Contract from the Start Date.
7.2.
If we are taking over from another Supplier as the Supplier of Energy
to the Premises, you hereby authorise us to:
(a)
contact your existing electricity Supplier/ESBN for the purposes of
coordinating the removal of any legacy Meter and the installation of a
ESBN Smart Meter; and/or

contact your existing gas Supplier / GNI for the purpose of
coordinating the removal of the current GNI PAYG meter and the
installation of a GNI Credit Meter;

changing electricity and/or gas Supplier.
7.3.
When we take over the Supply of Energy, you shall;
(a)
allow us to ask for information about your previous Supply and
disclose this information to third parties in order to carry out our
responsibilities under the Contract; and
(b)
allow us, ESBN or GNI to obtain Meter readings at the Start Date and at
regular intervals during the term of the Contract.
(c)
allow us to request EBSN to configure your Smart Meter to allow ESBN
to collect and share your Half Hourly Consumption data with us.
7.4.
When your request to switch is processed, your current Supplier will
notify us if you are in arrears for more than levels set for all customers by
the Regulator. If we decide not to carry out the switch because of arrears,
we will inform you of this decision in writing. In this case you should then
contact your existing Supplier to address your outstanding arrears. You
can then reapply to us for your Energy Supply.
7.5.
Yuno Energy may perform a credit assessment of your application
prior to sign up, upon which we reserve the right to decline your
application or request a security deposit to be paid in advance of
accepting you as a customer. If your application is unsuccessful or a
security deposit is required in advance of Supply, we will notify
you in writing.
7.6.
From the time that we start to Supply Energy to the Premises
under the Contract, you will become liable to pay the Charges under
the Contract.
8.
Changing the Contract
8.1.
From time to time we may vary these General Terms and Conditions
by providing you with no less than thirty (30) days’ prior notice. We
will notify you of these changes via our Website at
https://yunoenergy.ie/terms-and-conditions
and by national newspaper
advertisement. We may choose to notify via email, APP notification or
SMS text message in addition to our website and newspaper.
8.2.
If there is a material change to our General Terms and Conditions
(other than as described in Clause 8.4 or 8.5 below), we will provide you
with a copy of the amended General Terms and Conditions at least 28
days before the change comes into effect. The updated General Terms

8.3.
If there is a material change to our General Terms and Conditions
(other than as described in Clause 8.4 or 8.5 below), you may terminate
the Contract on providing written notice to us (a Termination Notice).
If the Contract is terminated pursuant to this Clause 8.3, no early

is given within one month after the change to the General Terms and
Conditions.
8.4.
This Clause 8 does not prevent us making changes to the Contract
to reflect changes in laws or changes in the industry rules (as long as we
comply with our Supply licence).
8.5.
Price changes will be notified as per Clause 11.22 and do not involve
a reissue of General Terms and Conditions.

and are due for disconnection as set out in Clause 9.1, You may choose
to either disconnect Your electricity Supply or Your gas Supply first. If You

Subject to Clause 6 (Cancelling the Contract Cooling off) and
Clause 8.3 (cancellation where material change to General Terms and
Conditions), you may terminate the Contract by providing us with written

on a shorter billing time frame. Your Bill may also include Charges for
services that We have agreed to Supply to you and will include VAT and
any other taxes or Charges that may apply.

debt collection agency in order to recover any amounts due and owing

11.4.
If, for any reason, the DSO have not been able to get Meter readings,
we will use estimated readings. You can also provide us with an actual

at: -
(a)

reading/.
11.5.
ESBN or GNI are responsible for reading the Meter at the Supply
Point(s) and we are not responsible for the accuracy of the Meter readings
taken. Meter readings are assumed to be correct. Where the Meter reading
is unavailable or we believe it to be inaccurate, we will make a reasonable
estimate of your Usage and issue to you an Energy Bill based on this
reasonable estimate. Where a Meter reading is inaccurate or the Tariffs
have been misapplied to the Meter readings, we will rectify this by either
debiting or crediting your account accordingly.
11.6.
The prices offered by us are based on our current Tariffs which may
be varied by us from time to time.
11.7.
Our Tariffs (with additional Product Specific Terms and Conditions,
including Contract duration and any related exit fees or obligations) are
displayed on our website (www.yunoenergy.ie) or may be obtained by
contacting us;
11.8.
You must pay your Energy Bill to the specific payment conditions of
your Tariff. If you pay us by an agreed payment date, we reserve the right

these General Terms and Conditions or any Product Specific Terms and

to levy Occasional Works Fees (or similar Charges ) in connection with the
Supply of Energy to any Meter, we shall be entitled to charge you for an
amount equal to the relevant Occasional Works Fees (or similar Charges)
and you agree to reimburse us for such amount in accordance with these
General Terms and Conditions.
11.14.
You must pay all Charges and Occasional Works Fees in full. Part
payment will not release you from your obligation to do so.

with your up-to-date email address, and we shall use this email address
to notify you that your Energy Bill is available in your App. Your Energy
Bill will:
(a)
identify the Charges, your Usage and the payments that have been
made by you since our previous Energy Bill (if any).
(b)
reconcile payments made by you with your Usage. If this reconciliation
shows that any amount payable is outstanding, you will be liable for such
outstanding amount. Payment of any outstanding amount may be made
by credit or debit card. At our discretion an outstanding amount may
also be paid at an agreed rate. Should the reconciliation process show an
overpayment, we will remit the amount of the overcharge back to you in
the form of credit on your account.
11.16.
If the Charges, or any Occasional Works Fees or any other fees
payable by you to us pursuant to the Contract are not discharged in full,
either by deducting from your registered payment account, or other
payment options, within 7 days of receiving notification in writing of your
obligation to pay the Charges, you may be liable for interest at the rate
of 4% per annum above the current EURIBOR (Euro Interbank Offered

details of any payment method that you have previously supplied to us to
pay any such outstanding amounts.
11.17.

Contract, you must still pay any undisputed amount, and we shall
endeavour to promptly address and resolve any concerns that you have in
relation to disputed amounts that we claim are payable by you pursuant

ESBN and, if it is tested at your request and found to be accurate, you
shall be required to pay a standard charge in respect of the test as a Pass
through Charge from GNI and/or ESBN respectively. However, if the Meter
is found to be inaccurate then we may adjust the Charges as appropriate
in accordance with our gas and or electricity Supply licence(s) and
applicable law.
11.21.
If GNI and/or ESBN suspends, disconnects or reconnects your
Energy Supply or repositions your Meter you may be charged any
reasonable costs for doing so.
11.22.

Occasional Works Fees at any time by providing you with no less than
thirty (30) days’ prior notice. Details of such variations will be available on

existing account to determine whether a credit risk exists in Supplying, or
continuing to Supply you with Energy.

If it is determined that a credit risk exists in Supplying or continuing
to Supply you with Energy, we may require a security deposit, equivalent
to 3 months of your individual average consumption, or in the case of
new applications or lack of such data, the accepted industry average
consumption for your Meter configuration, to be paid in advance.
(b)
The security deposit will be held on your account for an initial 12
month period, after which your account will be re-evaluated and the
credit risk re-assessed. If you have met the credit terms as initially
requested, you will be refunded the security deposit in full. If you have not
met the credit terms, we may refund the security deposit in part, or, if the
credit risk remains unchanged, retain the security deposit for a further 12
month period.
(c)

Smart Metering
21.1.
If you have signed up to our Smart Services, you agree to have a
smart Meter installed and consent to its installation when requested to
do so by ESBN as your chosen Tariff is incompatible with your existing
non smart Meter. Smart Customers which have commenced using Smart
Services may not revert to their previous metering profile. If you refuse to
allow the ESBN smart Meter to be installed at your Premises you may be
moved to a different tariff and we may request a deposit.
21.2.
In order to avail of our Smart Services, you agree to provide Yuno
Energy with half hourly metering data on an ongoing basis in accordance
with our Code of Practice on Smart Services and Privacy Notice. If you
decide that you no longer wish to provide half hourly data to Yuno Energy,
you will no longer be eligible to avail of Smart Services and Yuno Energy
may terminate the Contract and an exit fee may apply which is set out in
the Schedule of Charges.
21.3.
Smart Services are dependent on the Meters connectivity to the
Network Operator which is known as CTF (Comms Technically Feasible). If
the CTF changes your service may change to a non Smart Service Tariff. If
this is the case, we will notify you of any changes to your Tariff.
21.4.
In the event of a change of Supply, when Smart Services are enabled
any network supplied readings or Usage information will take precedence
over any customer supplied readings.
