The attentive user knows that I am not only referring to my gas price increase. See https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/gaspreiserhoehung-zum-1-1-2022.41836/
The switch was successfully completed on 01.01.22 (January 1, 2022). Tomorrow, the direct debit authorization will be signed and sent.
But today we received an email from the old supplier: they are terminating our contract as of 02.12.2031 (December 2, 2031) and stopping the supply immediately.

We hereby terminate the existing gas supply contract between us as of 02.12.2021 (December 2, 2021). On this date, we have stopped the supply of gas.

If you have received a price change from us with effect after 02.12.2021 (December 2, 2021), please consider it invalid.

As you may have seen in the media coverage, we have been facing an unprecedented price explosion at the European energy trading markets for several weeks, caused by an extraordinary combination of various factors.

The situation on the European natural gas market is particularly drastic. Recently, the gas prices for deliveries during the upcoming winter period have spiked by more than 400% on the procurement markets at peak levels.

From now on, we are insured by law... uh... forcibly supplied — basic supply and legally guaranteed.

Just ask your new supplier if they can bring the delivery date forward.

Gruenwelt... it was the same for me... I am also only with the new supplier starting on January 2nd, until then I have one month of basic supply. That shows the real value of the contract term when it gets too expensive for the provider. 😉

A contract is a contract, this applies to both parties. If you have not issued a termination (apart from the transfer, of course), you should object. See also the article in Handelsblatt.

Let's see when all the trouble settles down.

Here is the same situation. I will be on basic support for 2 weeks until the new contract starts.
