Excellent service, efficiency and communication, would highly recommend!

Called and spoke with Elijah Moss this morning as needed to review my utilites' contracts for the business and he was excellent.

I had to break our call as something came up but we agreed he would call back later in the day at a certain time and he kept his word, which i hugely appreciated.

Great communication and very efficient in helping me secure better deals with my utilities for the business.

It is so refreshing getting passed through to someone who can understand you and assist straight away instead of being passed from pillar to post or talking with someone who cannot converse properly due to language barriers. Took hardly anytime to sort.

Would highly recommend, thank you Elijah!

Ref 30340592 Thanks Kofi for ringing me back as agreed today. You are a polite and respectful young man and Clear Business are lucky to have you
Good luck in the future
I’d like to edit my review.
I’m now being billed for water I haven’t used
My meter reading has been ignored on the invoice and estimated instead.
I set up a direct debit with Kofi but instead I have the debt collection emailing me for payment.
Sorry Clear business not good enough

Despite vacating my business premises in May, I have continued to receive bills for water, there have been numerous exhausting calls trying to resolve this and still no conclusion. I spoke to Jamil today, hopefully he can resolve it, although i wont hold my breath, its been ongoing for 6 long months 🙄

Simple contract renewal

Simple contract renewal. Arranged a suitable time to call-back when I had time to deal with the renewal. No jargon and pushy sales techniques. Just simple straight-forward language, gave me a proposal to suit our business usage. Deal done and all the T&C's agreed, no fuss. Professional and friendly service. Happy customer

Great Customer Service

Erin was a great help from the beginning in arranging my contract. Initially I was going to shop around, but after getting great service from Erin I decided i didn't need to. I work in a business that relies on customer service, so appreciate the service that Erin gave me. Thank you Erin.
