Someone to actually speak to.

After previous argumentative conversations with Yu Energy I later got to speak to Ash and how lucky me. It was a pleasure to speak to someone who genuinely wanted to help and sorted out my query. s Naz. How good to find a utility company who have actual people speak to and staff who deal with customers swiftly, efficiently, charmingly and with knowledge. Thank you Ash!

Good customer service from Lilly

Good customer service from Lilly. Had a question which was answered, and an issues which was flagged to the relevant department. Hopefully my issue gets resolved.
Only negative on this 'chat' function was that once we finish with the AI chat, there is no update on how long it would take for an advisor to be available, or confirmation you are in a queue.

Corporate Money Grabbing Scum

Absolutely disgraceful behaviour. We were told our account was on hold because the property was empty, with no standing charges. They didn’t bill us a single penny for over a year — then suddenly claimed we’d been on out‑of‑contract rates all along.
And the ombudsman backed them.
It’s nothing but shameless, money‑grabbing corporate scum tactics. Shame on the lot of them.

Threatening Phone Calls

Had a very alarming call where a man was incredibly rude. After I hung up - he immediately called me back.. He said I owed money and I would very much regret him coming to disconnect the electricity meter. I dont owe any money to this company and have blocked number! What a terrible company and vile employee.

New account

Rejoined this organisation after six years as service was very bad. To my surprise, Nozrul, who came on the phone apologised for the past despite being a new employee and sorted my VAT and CCL levy exemption within a few minutes. Top man!

Overdue account notice received 4 days earlhy

Overdue account notice received 4 days before the scheduled DD payment goes out: phone helpline provided the usual indefinite wait: LiveChat was completely hopeless (how about AI??). Fortunately I ended up on WhatsApp with Leyla who was able to sort everything quickly & pleasantly.

I have no complaints at all about Leyla. She was excellent, friendly, thorough, and prompt. She resolved my issue while I was still speaking with her, and her customer service was outstanding.

The reason for the 2-star rating has nothing to do with Leyla; it's directed at the company itself.

The customer waiting times are among the worst I've experienced. If you select the new sales option, an agent answers quickly to help sign you up as a new customer.

However, if you're an existing customer, be prepared for a very long wait. I spent over 78 minutes on hold before eventually giving up and hanging up. I then tried the live chat, but after interacting with the chatbot there was still no human agent available. Finally, I contacted the company via WhatsApp, where Leyla responded after around 30 minutes and resolved everything efficiently.

Leyla deserves full credit for her excellent service. Unfortunately, the company's customer support availability lets the overall experience down.

This is simply my genuine experience.
