Many thanks to the lady who I spoke to, unfortunatly I don't remember her name.
She was able to answer all may questions regarding the electric readings & gave me advice on other questions I asked her.
She was very clear & polite.

Excellent customer service

We have moved our new branch to Octopus Energy due to the excellent customer service, easy to use portal etc. We had problems switching initially with the previous provider but Octopus Energy persevered and I'm glad to say the switch went smoothly.

Initial dealings regarding changing of faulty meter

Initial dealings regarding changing of the meter proved rather lenghy and left us as we later found out in perilous danger.
We did lose 24+ hours of business due to being cut off and your agents unable to provide a 3 phase engineer out of hours.
However, once an engineer attended Tahesha was most helpful and informative. For this element of service I would give 5 stars

Renewed my contract. Competitive price. Sunil explained about different options and emailed so I can check and decide what suits me best.

I am a new customer

I am a new customer - and struggled with registering online. Your representative Coby was particularly helpful. With Coby’s help, I have now registered and given up to date meter readings.

The problem was identifying the correct meters and also finding day time and night time readings. So obvious - once this was explained to me. Thank you.
