Hi,

Thank you for your review.

We understand a price increase isn’t welcome news.

The underlying Power NI residential unit price has been reviewed by the Utility Regulator and an increase of 4% has been agreed due to increases in market and network-related charges.

We would like an opportunity to check that you are on our best tariff if you wish, our email is home@powerni.co.uk or alternatively our customer helpline number is 03457 455 455 (option 3). Opening hours are 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday.

Kind Regards,

Useless!!

Today is the third time in 2 weeks I tried to top up (unsuccessfully) on the app and the same thing keeps happening. My bank is approving the payment and the “wonderful” PowerNI keeps saying there is a problem. Yes, you are the problem!! Think it’s time to switch to another provider!!

Hi Peter.

Thanks for getting in touch.

Unfortunately we do not have any way to know if a customers keypad runs out of credit. It is best to ensure there is sufficient credit on it if a property is going to be vacant. It is a prepayment top up meter and supply will go off if the credit runs out.

We do however offer different billing options which have a constant supply. Please get in touch if you would like more details on this.
