Not helpful and rude. Wait times are horrible only to get hung up on when they finally answer and then no one rings you back. Switch was absolutely shit and somehow my power got turned off While being switched over and then they charged me a reconnection fee when it was their fault? When it finally came over my first bill was somehow a estimate even though we have a smart meter.

Pros:

Not at all

Cons:

Not helpful at all customer services. Hopeless high rate and rude clause. No recommend.

Some major disconnect between their new customer sign up team and their billing department. Only after I joined them did they tell me that I was provided wrong information and that the "deal" I was offered wasnt available for my home because I had solar panels.

Pros:

After some initial issues with the new customer sign up team quoting me a plan which I was later told wasnt valid for my property the customer service team showed great empathy and explained that they had totally got things wrong. They offered me compensation as a way of saying sorry.

Cons:

Their new customer sign up team were not well informed of what pricing plans are available for customers with home generation, solar panels.

Use for my Mains Gas only - good price but only after I queried how and what I was paying.

Pros:

They supply mains gas as a standalone so no need to bundle

Cons:

They didn't offer me best value plan - needed me to chase and ask for it... but they offered a quick response and no issues contacting when I needed to however.
