Does what I need for now...

I've not had any problems with So Energy, however, the standing charge could be lower. I have stayed because it is currently the best price for what I need and convenient.

I found the ‘chat’ line very difficult to use as it kept freezing.
A representative did notice this and followed up with an email although he didn’t then follow up on my response.
I then had to make a phone call to resolve my issue.
All very confusing.

Monthly payments and bills and refunded…

Monthly payments and bills and refunded credit within two days into my account when requested. Notified me of best and all options available for renewal also stating that other companies may be cheaper! Needless to say I stayed with So Energy with new plan! Easy to talk to with online chat, customer service is 5 star 🌟.
Monthly readings sent by yourself and so easy to do with monthly bills with in days which allows you to know exactly how out much in credit or debt your account is!
