Still an awful company
Still an awful company. My smart meter simply doesn't work, so even in the app, my credit isn't updated regularly so I never get any notification whether or not I'm running out. Often come home to find my electric or gas has been off since 10am

I would have given 5 stars when I had the old system with the key and card top up now they "improved it" with the new smart meter bs I have had nothing but problems... even after they came to fix it I told the guy who came both meters needed fixing he fixed one and said the other would auto update.. it did not it only fixed the one he worked.. Will move to another service at this rate..

Thank you for taking the time to speak with me this morning. As discussed on our call, I am sorry for the service received from previous agents and I will investigate to ensure we received the top ups made. As you have now left supply with us, if these have been received I will request a refund to be raised for you.

The lady was good at pointing out the immediate solution nevertheless I think the problem is not fully solved to my knowledge.
I will have a better answer upon the next recharge whether it would need manual intervention as in me calling the company or it automatically credits the display box as it had been successfully via Apple Pay until the last 2/3 transactions which were eventually sorted via phone calls .
So it’s a game of wait n see !!!
