All done with apps

All done with apps, too bad if you want to talk to somebody, all done out of Philippines, I was asked to call them back, after waiting twice asked to confirm your details. Not a good match for me.

I had a $27.90 bill and needed to pay straight away due to my card for payments was cancelled due to a new one! I called alinta energy to sort this out and payed the over due amount and to start up my new direct debit for weekly payments! I asked and confirmed that I would only have this taken out weekly(78.00). But next direct debit of 78.00 that came out was for 305 dollars? I called them and the told me that thos was not the case! If I didn't set up my direct debit weekly how where they able to take 305 dollars out of my account? Alinta employee's are lyers to there customers!

We apologise for the confusion; weekly payments can be arranged via BPAY or by setting up Bill Smoothing on your account.

We will pass this on to the relevant department to ensure better customer service moving forward.

WORST ELECTRICITY COMPANY EVER

WORST ELECTRICITY COMPANY EVER! NEVER USE THESE GUYS. My bill was over 50% higher than normal and when i called up i got the worst indian customer service. I have an email saying there was something wrong with the metre box. When i said I wanted the bill to be the same as the last bill due to the issue he laughed at me. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY
