The online portal is terrible its like they are trying to make using them differently. I've unfortunately been required to use them for 4 years and I have only ever had problems. The email help is terrible the only option is to call them and stay on hold for hours.

Excellent Customer Service!!

I have only ever received excellent customer service from welcome energy and thought it was time to let everyone know. I have had no issues with receiving bills and when I need support, they always answer the phone quickly. Very happy overall and would recommend

Statement ALWAYS wrong

Have been a customer or Welcome Energy for just over two years, when our management company imposed the change on us from our previous provider, Switch 2, who I could never fault in 10 years of service.

The quarterly statement from Welcome Energy has always been wrong, every single time. Okay there might have been one exception, aside from that, the statement has always been misleading or just plain incorrect. If I wasn't a complete data geek and never bothered to check, I might be out of pocket by hundreds of pounds by now. Each quarter, either the closing account balance is either completely wrong, or it's actually correct but the detail on the statement is so ambiguous it's hard to understand how they calculated it.

To their credit, every time I email to complain, their staff are helpful, polite and apologetic and issue a credit note and/or replacement statement eventually, but even these need checking in detail. It all just gets really confusing.

They blame their "software" for the bad statements, and are forever claiming that they are waiting for a software upgrade. They appear to have been waiting over two years.

This is consistently the worst utility company I have ever dealt with.

Zero Customer Service or Help Provided!

Our meter was faulty (not the company's fault), however they refused to help us out when it came to trying to rectifying the solution of them forcing us to pay above-average bills.

Customer service was almost non-existent, if we hadn't have been honest enough to contact them in the first place they wouldn't have even known we were there and would have been supplying hot water/heating for free.

Not a clue!
