Good to talk with someone helpful

Erenay Fortuin was extremely helpful. It makes a difference if you manage to get a customer service agent that understands the issue and helps to resolve it.

Ethan Heuvel is a superstar

I was hoping to talk to Breyton Hendricks but he was unavailable so I asked Ethan Heuvel to assist me. The issues were both complex and sensitive and Ethan dealt with them quietly and efficiently, providing advice and options to help resolve issues and seeking advice himself when the need arose. While I have serious issues with the way the company has handled this account over the last 5 years, Ethan proved to be exceptionally able - He is worth 5 stars!

Joke Company

If I ran my company like SES I’d be out of business. Billing me for a water meter that took over 2 years to locate. Charging me for wastewater when we have a cesspit - 2 years to acknowledge that. Now Breyton Hendricks from the complaints team can’t even use a calculator to add up the wastewater charges and refund them correctly and suggests I escalate my complaint. What a joke company - even their debt collection agency wouldn’t take me to court & referred it back. Forget the complaints procedure and invite them to take you to court.
