There are various levels to an LOA which will be highlighted on the document itself. The level you sign is at your discretion and will solely be used for the transfer of your utilities once you have agreed. Once transfer is completed, the LOA is void and disregarded.

Typically most tariffs are allocated to best suit you financially therefore it is rarely beneficial to change.
