While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Can't fault Western Power. We needed our electricity supply moving due to an extension being built and from the very start of our enquiry the team at Alfreton were great. They communicated well and tu... See more

Pity the utilities sector in the UK is regulated by quangos or statutory bodies so if it takes many hours to fix a power cut its just tough luck. The individual in the UK counts for nothing. The mid... See more

Excellent.

Excellent.

Overnight the power went off for about 30 houses but was on again about 0700.

Later that day, about 1300, the power went off again - this time, I'm told, affecting only 3 houses.

Sometimes things do go wrong - it's how they're fixed that makes the difference!

After I 'phoned, engineers were outside within the hour. Once fixed, they called to check all was OK. I was also 'phoned back by their customer services to check all was OK.

Couldn't ask for better service.

Westernpower's engineer caused a power …

Westernpower's engineer caused a power cut when he was called in by South Wales Police, blowing up our server and causing £2000 damage. Despite 5 witnesses in the shop, and two police officers they denied it was them!
The are assuming that I will not take them to county court as it will cost. Dishonest and downright bullies.
