How to finalise a deceased estate
Losing a loved one is difficult and we are here to guide you through the process to finalise a Synergy account to make it as easy as possible. Before we make any changes to the account, it is important for us to know if you are an authorised person on the account. If you are unsure, please contact Synergy on 13 13 53 between 7am until 7pm. Upon receiving notification of the passing of the account holder, we will respectfully close their account following the date of notification. Our priority is to handle the account with care, ensuring that no ongoing changes or consumption are attributed to the deceased’s account after the account has been closed. There are two ways to finalise an account, so we’ve put together this information to help you through the steps. Option 1 – I am an authorised person on the account If you are an authorised person on the account simply head to our Moving home form or log into My Account to close the account and then open a new account if required. Or, if preferred, you can speak to someone directly on 13 13 53 between 7am until 7pm. You will require the following information to finalise the account: Account number Account holder name Account holder date of birth Premise address Option 2 - I am not an authorised person on the account. If you are not an authorised person on the account, don’t worry we may still be able to assist you with finalising the account - we just need some additional information from you. We will require one of the below documents: Certificate of Probate (this names the executor of the deceased estate) Letter of Administration An Authority to Deal with a Deceased Estate Statutory Declaration If the Public Trustee is handling the estate, they will contact us regarding the account. You will also require the following information to finalise the account: Account number Account holder name Account holder date of birth Premise address To make it easier you can send your documentation to us at trustee@synergy.net.au including your contact details, Synergy account number and address.

How does self-reading your meter work?
You might choose to read your own meter because of meter access issues, or perhaps you live in an area of WA where it’s hard for Western Power meter readers to visit regularly. If you read and submit your own meter readings, you’re known as a “self-read” customer. Here’s a quick guide to how the self-read process works: Generally, every two months Western Power will let you know when and how to submit your meter reading. They might let you know by text, email or a self-read card sent in the mail. You read your meter and submit the information using Western Power’s online portal, by calling Western Power or by posting your self-read card back to Western Power. (If you receive a self-read card and submit your reading online, your next meter read reminder will be sent by text or email, not by card.) You receive your Synergy bill. If you are a self-read customer, it’s important to submit your reading in the timeframe that Western Power gives to you. If you don’t make the deadline, your next bill will be based on your estimated electricity use instead of what you’ve actually used. Even when you’re a self-read customer, Western Power will need to visit your property and access your meter for a reading at least once every 12 months. Please visit the Western Power website for more details about your meter readings.
