How do I cancel my energy contract?
Cancelling your contract is simple and can be done in one of the following ways:
- By phone: call us at 085 – 30 32 652, Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 17:00.
- By email: send your cancellation to klantteam@vrijopnaam.nl. Include your customer number and desired end date.
- Via 'Mijn Vrijopnaam' (web app): log in to your personal account and submit your cancellation request.
Please note: are you switching to another supplier? In most cases, you don’t need to cancel your current contract yourself. Your new supplier will handle it.
Keep in mind the cancellation notice period
At Vrijopnaam, we use a 30-day notice period. Your contract will end 30 days after we receive your cancellation. Be sure to cancel on time if you’re moving or switching suppliers.
If you chose fixed rates, we may charge an early termination fee on your final invoice. If you have a variable (monthly or dynamic) rate, cancelling your contract is free of charge.
What happens after cancellation?
After your contract ends:
- You’ll receive a final bill within 6 weeks.
- Do you have Panelenopnaam (solar panels)? We’ll buy them back from you. You’ll receive a separate refund invoice, and we’ll transfer the remaining value to your bank account automatically.
- Had a negative experience? Let us know. We’re always open to feedback.
