Obviously the energy price hikes are bad, but I would much rather weather any energy crisis storms with a supplier I believe I can trust, like London Power/Octopus. So I'm giving a 5 star review even... See more

I've had mixed experiences with London…

I've had mixed experiences with London Power over 3 years. While interacting with agents like Alicia or Imogen was pleasant and efficient, unresolved issues with billing and smart meters make me hesitant to fully recommend them. The website is simple to use, but the service can hit or miss. Needs improvement overall.

Helpful and responsive

I called to query the increase to my monthly payments which they had recommended. Richard D answered my query fully and explained clearly the reasoning behind it. He gave me alternative options to consider and discussed these with me. I’ve been with London Power for some time and generally found them helpful and responsive,

Best energy supplier we have ever had

Been with LondonPower for over 3 years, simply put they are the best energy supplier we have ever had. Easy to use website, no issues with the smart meter and excellent customer service. Can see why their/Octopus's customer service is rated so highly

Alicia

Alicia was friendly and attentive from the start of the call. She made sure to take time to listen and answer my queries with sufficient details. She also followed through in the actions and assured me on the next steps. It was amazing speaking to someone who out the customer needs first.

Alicia was amazing

Alicia was amazing! So helpful! It’s not often you speak with an energy company and genuinely have a good experience! You should invest in more agents like Alicia.

Best in the business

Been with LP a good few years. Moved home and found the supplier there did not hold the same attentive qualities. So now back with LP and I’m so glad. Staff are so helpful and always go above and beyond to help. Alicia was very helpful and supportive in making my switch over a smooth and easy.

Shockingly poor service

Shockingly poor service. Our gas smart meter was not sending readings for over a year and when it was replaced they could not get a reading so tried to charge on a high estimated read for over a year adding potentially thousands to our bill but after complaining kindly offered £75!!!!! and then proposed a lower estimate based on a high user with no justification. AVOID!

Imogen was very helpful

Imogen was very helpful in arranging for a refund and reduction of monthly payments for a tenanted flat that I own. The newish tenants are more frugal than previous tenants which had resulted in a larger than necessary credit building up.
Also she has requested a call back to get my home gas meter put onto my home smart meter.
Very helpful, very pleasant and very efficient.

Repeated overcharging

For the last 4-5 months London Power have repeatedly overcharged us for energy. This has led to us receiving monthly bills of £400-500 (for a one bedroom flat), when the bill should in fact be £60-100.

Each month we have phoned them and they have confirmed that this is a "data transposition error" where they have mixed up our night and day time rate. They then credit our account and promise that this won't happen again. A couple of days ago we received a bill for £560 for January.

This is shockingly incompetent. We're lucky that we identified this error, other more vulnerable people might not have queried this and ended up paying thousands of pounds which they do not owe.

The fact that we have raised this with London Power on 4 or 5 occasions now and they have not resolved this is unacceptable.
