However, if you would like to opt-out of Apple Valley Choice Energy and remain with Southern California Edison, you may do so quickly and easily.
If you started service within the last 60 days
Customers who opt out of Apple Valley Choice Energy (AVCE) within the first 60 days of service may return to Southern California Edison (SCE) on your next meter read date following five business days from your request. Customers who opt out of AVCE within 60 days of starting service are eligible to return to AVCE at any time.
If you started service over 60 days ago
Customers who opt out of Apple Valley Choice Energy (AVCE) after 60 days of service must specify your preference for opting out using one of the two options described below, either Option 1 or Option 2. Once AVCE has recorded your preferred opt-out method and account information, your request will be submitted to Southern California Edison and you will receive a confirmation number. Customers who opt out after 60 days will not be eligible to return to AVCE for twelve months as a requirement by SCE. The two methods for opting out are:
Option 1
By selecting this option, you will return to Southern California Edison service on your next meter read date following five business days from your request. During the first six months of service from Southern California Edison, you will be subject to SCE’s transitional bundled rates which are the market rate for electricity. This rate can be lower or higher than the traditional rates and is subject to change throughout the six month period. At the end of the six month period, you will be returned to the standard bundled rates. For more information regarding SCE’s transitional bundled rates, call (800) 974-2356 or visit sce.com.
Option 2
By selecting this option, you are giving Southern California Edison six months advance notice that you will be returning to their service. Per Southern California Edison’s Rule 23, you will remain a customer of AVCE for six months after you submit your request. After six months, you will be transferred to SCE’s standard bundled rates. You will not be subject to the transitional bundled rates.
