Why did I get a longer top up code than normal?

Keypad top up codes usually have 20 digits. However, when you buy a top-up after electricity prices have changed you will be given a special 40 or 60 digit top up code, depending on your tariff. This will credit your Keypad with your top-up amount and update it with the new unit rate. You may also receive a special 40 or 60 digit top up code if we have to update your meter.

If you have received a longer top up code, simply key it in as normal.
