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

Abby Shaw at Octopus an Absolute Star!!

Well, I switched to Octopus after an issue with NPower Select and their useless customer services. The switch occured just after New Year and was a breeze. Now, I wanted to go on their Go tariff for my electric car and once the switch was done proceeded to apply for the tariff. But, I then received an email saying it wasn't possible to install a Smart Meter at my property. Anyhow, called Octopus and Abby Shaw took my call. Explained the situation, she checked and it seems as though the mobile signal they use for the updates (they call it a WAN) isn't strong enough. However, undeterred she switched my tariff from the standard one to the Octopus Tracker (much cheaper than standard) to save me some money and also booked in a smart meter appointment for the engineer to fit one and hopefully it may work but if not then it's there for the future. Plus, they're going to install an Isolator switch which is what I need for my EV charger to be installed. Total time from the phone call to Abby to install is going to be 10 days. NPower Select never responded (even to an official complaint) to my enquiry after almost two months...I rest my case!!

SUPERB

London Power have been absolutely excellent so far! The customer service is friendly and efficient, I've been emailing Molly who's been a pleasure to deal with. Their tariffs are great and their website and emails are straightforward and clutter-free.
Another big plus - they're green and reinvest profits into London's communities. If you're considering switching I would definitely recommend!

Best customer service EVER.

Honestly, not only they are green but they have the best customer service ever. I had a query following my monthly payments being changed due to my previous supplier's projection, and following a feedback left I got a great reply as they have addressed EVERY single thing I've mentioned or I was doubtful about. Definitely recommend. Keep it up guys!!!!

highly recommended!

I was originally with Octopus but then was introduced to London Power. after 2 years reporting wrong meter, they were really honest and refunded me the wrongly charge bills and every single time I contact them, they were super helpful! I would stay with them if not because my new place wouldn't let me stay with them! I have no complaint! amazing company!

Wonderful customer service

Recently spoke to James Smith over the phone who was most helpful and accommodating. James was quickly able to switch me onto a new energy tariff which is far better value than my previous. Thank you very much :)

Got a quote from them but was surprised that it was the most expensive of all the others I had by a long way. Perhaps the Mayor should direct his attentions to the traffic problems he's created instead of vanity projects like this.

Reply from London Power

Hello,

We are always aiming to improve our services and your feedback is vital to this, so thank you for taking the time to contact us.

As the Mayor has committed to making London a zero carbon city, we are putting affordable, carbon neutral energy at our core.

Unlike most tariffs on the market, our my london carbon neutral plan tariff is a green tariff with both 100% renewable electricity & carbon offsetting of your gas usage. It's one of the cheapest green tariffs available on the market & is still competitive against non-green tariffs but you may find some cheaper non-green tariffs without the same benefits.

If you would like to talk about our tariffs, initiatives or rates, then please feel free to email us at hello@mylondonpower.com with the subject FAO Molly.

Kind regards,
Molly Finch

Awesome help provided by Christie!

Awesome help provided by Christie! I bumped into a few issues when moving over from EDF to London Power. Christie provided me with guidance, was attentive and was easy to get in touch with over email! She made the process a breeze! Glad to have made the switch!
