Easy transition to CovaU.

Aushmeare (customer service) was very helpful in connecting me for my gas and electricity and for finding another electricity account for which I could not find the bill. I now have all of my energy bills in the one account. Highly recommend CovaU for ease of connection and Aushmeare for his customer service skills, patience and helpfulness.

Very pleasant experience

The support person has been very polite and extremely helpful in adding my wife's name as a secondary contact person.
However, I did highlight to him that the website would not allow me to update her contact details myself.
I also informed him that when I contacted CovaU on 1300 689 866, I entered my Account Number and my Mobile Number, but the system tells me that my Mobile Number is not valid (but Aushmeare could confirm that it is correct in your system records).

Quick and Smart support from CovaU

Today I had a really great experience with the CovaU chat support team. I hade inadvertently made an error in my application for a new connection. I contacted the live chat support and the response was super quick! My concerns were sorted out and settled quickly.

Bill Review

After having my bill analysed I found my existing plan should have been cheaper. I rang the support line and the operator was very helpful in finding me a discounted rate. I look forward to seeing the improved rate in my next bill. Thank you!

Thank you so much Rhitzie

I spoke with Rhitzie this morning. Rhitzie was very helpful as I could not download my account. When I went into the PDFall I saw was pages with a grey background and the tiniest of writing which could not be read. Rhitzie was able to fix this problem for me and she sent me a copy of my latest account which is due on 26 February. I also had to change my credit card details as I have a new credit card. Rhitzie was very kind and very helpful and I was so relieved that she was able to fix my problem and she sent me a new PDF so that I was able to then print out my account. I do hope that I do not have a problem downloading my account in the future. Rhitzie has a lovely clear voice and she speaks so well and clearly. Rhitzie is a bonus to you business. Y

My recent experience with the CovaU…

My recent experience with the CovaU contact centre was very positive. I was connected to an operator in less than 30 seconds. After explaining my problem, the issue was checked and resolved. The customer service was polite and professional.
