CALIFORNIAPG&E Product PG&E Enrollment Process California Rule: If Customer is with a REP (CTA) for less than 12 months and signs up for service with a competitor, the Customer (only) must call current provider or PG&E and request that PG&E be their provider; otherwise switch will occur only after the Customer completes their 12th month of service • Example: Bill signed up for a variable plan 2 months ago with California Birkenstock Energy (REP/CTA). In an effort to save money, he then enrolls in an Ambit product. His Ambit service will not start for another 10 months. He is asked to cancel his account with current provider so that he can start enjoying the benefits of being an Ambit Energy Customer much sooner
