AGL, like other energy providers including Origin, has been adjusting electricity prices, with recent changes often taking effect around July 1st each year. While regulations aim to limit increases to once a year for many customers, some specific product types or unforeseen events can allow for more frequent adjustments. It's advisable to compare your current AGL plan with Origin's offerings and other providers in your area, as prices can vary significantly based on location, usage, and specific plan features. Many comparison sites or calling providers directly can help you find the most competitive rates.
