Leyla was really helpful- the chat function works well which is great when you don't want to be on the phone for hours. I will use this company for a long time. I advise anyone to move from EDF who are the absolute worst with bills and customer service.

We're sorry to hear you're unhappy with your experience.

Having reviewed your account, we can see that one of our advisors has reached out. An additional charge had been applied in error. This has now been removed from your account. This should bring you bill inline with your expectations. We apologise for the mix up and glad we have been able to resolve this for you

If you would like us to review your billing in more detail and discuss the difference in charges compared with your previous supplier, we'd be more than happy to do so. Please get in touch with our Customer Services team and we'll be happy to help.

They stole £11k via the direct debit for Gas. That would be enough to heat us for two years rather than 1 month.

Nobody answers the phone or the live chat (apart from the bot).

It has been over two weeks since I first raised the complaint, now they are asking me to take 2 time stamped photos of the meter 7 days apart.

Well nobody here has a phone that does time stamped photos and its on a SMART meter any way.

That's my issue with the gas, they have also tried to put my electricity price up by over 15% one month after we started a three year contract with them. The reason is because the engineer they sent to us to install a smart meter wasn't trained on our type of meter so couldn't install it.

If they are not con men they do a pretty good impression of one.

Hi Ian,

We're very sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate how concerning this must have been.

Having reviewed your account, it appears the issue stems from an opening meter reading provided by your previous supplier, which appears to be significantly incorrect. This has resulted in an inaccurate balance on your account.

To help resolve this as quickly as possible, our Billing Team contacted your previous supplier on 1 July to dispute the opening reading on your behalf and request the correct closing meter readings. We're currently awaiting their response so we can amend your account accordingly.

We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your patience while we work with your previous supplier to resolve the issue.

Kind regards,

Got my first business bill they agreed…

Edited : a man rang called Russel he got an agreement with me as good will ( so he said) he removed £145 charges ( sounding like he was doing me a favour) I am not sure what I gonna do the 19th I said I pay the lot but the lawyer said to keep the file opened also he said he send me an email with the agreement in writing but he didn’t so I am concerned about that too.

Original below

Got my first business bill they agreed with me a payment plan to then realise they charged me extra £369 on top without warning I assumed a payment plan would avoid extra charges but they added that in 2 weeks then refuse to do the agreed plan as obviously the amount gone up and the money asked was not sufficient anymore absolutely disgusting scammers

Absolutely terrible experience with Yu…

Absolutely terrible experience with Yu Energy.

I completed a change of tenancy over three months ago and never heard back from them to put me onto a new contract, despite all of my bills being paid on time. Out of nowhere, I then received an invoice demanding nearly £5,000.

After speaking to a manager, I was clearly told that this invoice was incorrect and that I did not need to pay it. Despite this, I then received the exact same demand again and have been repeatedly chased for payment by different members of staff.

To make matters even worse, Yu Energy switched my property to a prepayment (top-up) meter without informing me, and are now trying to charge me a further £2,600.

The communication has been appalling, with different people giving completely contradictory information. I’ve spent countless hours trying to sort out mistakes that were not mine, and the stress this has caused has been unacceptable.

I am also currently postpartum after having a baby and already suffer with anxiety. This whole situation has had a significant impact on my mental wellbeing and has caused me unnecessary stress and worry at a time when I should be focusing on my recovery and my family. No customer should be put through this because of repeated errors and poor communication.

I would not recommend Yu Energy to anyone. Their customer service, billing system, and handling of customer accounts have been extremely disappointing

Would be minus stars if this was available.
Where do I start . Estimated billing for 10 or more months and following a meter ‘upgrade’ I eventually managed to speak to someone ( calls take 35 to 1hr 10 to answer any longer and the call is dropped) .
12 emails, calls totalling 10 hours plus frequent attempts to contact.
Continuous threats and costs .
No company inter communication as emails to different departments are not attached to your account .
Utterly useless .
Stressful does not cover it.
Ombudsman now contacted the wait starts .
I’am owed approximately £12500 from the wrongly estimated invoices and cannot get anyone to give answers or provide the information requested .
Stay well clear of this provider , they are incompetent, even corrupt .
