I am reaching the end of my tether

I am reaching the end of my tether. We are supposed to treat Yu with respect when they are constantly "deflecting" customers, to hide failings in their systems. I have submitted change of tenancy details 3 months ago, and only, now, they are saying I must fill in another change of tenancy form. The change of tenancy form in itself is badly designed, and shoddy. As a note, I have spoken to 6 people at Yu, spent over 3 hours to be connected, and been given the false impression that they are being helpful. Their website gives the impression that help is waiting at Yu, to resolve any issues. Could go on, but at the end of the day, it is the bosses that decide how the Yu "system" works, and not spending on resolution of customer issues is clearly a management decision. Over to Yu, but am going to make a commitment. If someone from Yu can call me and resolve the change of tenancy issue in one call, I will donate £100 to UNICEF. This is not an anonymous review, so I can be challenged on any part of this review. One week to resolve!

Hi Cosima,

We're sorry to hear that you feel this way.

To help ensure your bills are as accurate as possible, we recommend submitting regular meter readings, as this helps prevent estimated billing. Setting up a Direct Debit can also help ensure payments are made on time and avoid any unnecessary charges.

If there's anything specific you'd like us to look into, please get in touch and we'll be happy to review your account.

Kind regards,

YU change customer account without customer's knowledge or agreement

Coming to the end of contract, I explicitly told YU I wished to remain with Yu's supply, subject to their rates.

Two days ago YU promised me their terms and in and out of contract rates by email

Yesterday YU phoned to asked if I would accept. I said I was still wating for their rates and terms

Today, this time for approaching 40 minutes YU's staff, first Catherine, then her director Caroline and then someone called Bobby, waste my time.

First, Catherine phones me to ask the same question her colleague asked yesterday - Will I accept YU rates for an extended contract for one to multiple years. The rates I was promised by email two days ago but never received. I again asked for YUs offer to be sent by email.

Then Catherine advised me it didn't matter because YU had relinquished my account to another supplier! Without my knowledge and contrary to my wishes.

I asked Catherine what authority YU had to alter my contract in any way without my knowledge and explicit agreement. Catherine then behaved as a broken record despite being repeatedly and clearly asked to peak to someone who could understand and answer the question, not seem to read from a script.

So I was passed to a person Catherine called her CS Director Caroline, who despite her assurances also behaved as a broken record, giving no explanation.

I then receive an unsolicited call from Bobby of YU, who does not disclose her position but informs me that contrary to both Catherine and Caroline YU has not relinquished account to another supplier, but has changed by account to a new account. YU changed my account without any authority from me and despite my explicit instruction not to.

The email subsequently gain from Bobby of YU gives only the rate for one year but not any rate for any other period or out of contract rates, nor any contract terms thereby expecting me to consent to their terms without the necessary information. Such a contract is invalid.

As Bob Dylan put it - more of my precious time wasted.

Long winded and confusing? Indeed. I am hoping that YU management recognise they are failing to train their staff. Not tor fail and frustrate their customers, to apologise when they do, to listen and answer the question and not blame their customers for their own failings.

I also hope that YU staff like Catherine, Caroline, Bobby and others recognise that if they don't make the effort to learn customer care, then they will be replaced by Ai.

Ai ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot and many others would all do a far better job and 24/7.

Ish at Yu Energy was brilliant

Spoke to Ish at Yu Energy yesterday and again today, and he was brilliant. A bit of a complicated situation regarding a gas meter upgrade, but he dealt with all my questions very patiently and found all the answers I needed. Also put a couple of things in motion from his end that we needed. Excellent and friendly customer service - very happy to recommend!

I moved out of a property four months ago , sent all relevant paperwork to Yu Energy after 48 text messages numerous phone calls, the last one I was on hold for one hour 25 mins and gave up .I have been given numerous case numbers for the same thing and all I get is a bill every month along with threats about not paying. Worst company I have ever dealt with and as a business we deal with a lot of companies . Shame on you and your non existent care team

Light at the end of the tunnel

Tbh I have had nothing but bad experiences with YU Energy, but throughout the several months ive been with them there have been a handful of staff who have actually genuinely helped like today for example today I rang because I got an unusually high bill because I was not advised as to which reading to provide, sending me an estimate bill of £4335. Though I rang today and spoke to someone called Mariam O and she sorted this issue out within minutes, I am not giving 5 stars to YU Energy but to the handful of staff like Mariam O who take their job seriously and go out of their way to actually help customers. Thanks to all the staff that have actually helped and to Mariam O for sorting out todays issue

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback.

We're sorry to hear that your overall experience hasn't met your expectations, managing multiple meters can be confusing and lead to estimated bills but we're pleased Mariam was able to resolve the confusion so quickly. We appreciate how concerning it must have been to receive an estimated bill of that value, and we're glad she was able to get things sorted within minutes.

Your comments about Mariam, and the other colleagues who have genuinely helped you along the way, mean a great deal. We'll make sure your kind words are shared with her and the team.

Thank you again for recognising the people who have made a positive difference.
