“Worst company! Don’t use them. If you ever have an issue with your meter it will take them months to fix. Neither my gas nor electric meter have been communicating with their system since 15/12/23, after weeks of going back and forth I finally had an appointment for someone to come fix them today 9/2/24. They only made an appointment for the electric meter! So I have to wait another month to get the gas fixed this is beyond ridiculous and no one here is helpful.”

“Well. My situation was not Scottish Powers fault but every person has done their best to help solve the problem caused by my tenant. We are not there yet but one person said they’d ring me back… and did. And spent 90 ‘mins on the phone trying to help me. They do their best in difficult circumstances and I’ve never waited long to get through compared to other electric companies.”

“Had the worst experience with Scottish power in my life. They over charged me corsed me server mental health infact they even embrassed me by sending people to fit a metre because of my so called debt. After making a number of complaints and going higher that's when I recieved the best customer service altho this took some time they did in the end owe me money and i was greatful for finally getting to the bottom of there incompetence. I Would never recommend them because of how distressed they made me. However the top complaints staff seem to have much better customer service, Superb infact. But who wants to keep dealing with complaints team to get anything sorted correctly, So i left the company.”

“Absolutely the worst experience. Minus 4c tonight. Been asking for help since 13.00 because the card meter failed. It is now 21.00 and no engineer has arrived to fix said faulty meter. Lines are closed. Cant cook, cant wash, cant keep warm. App doesn't work, chat doesn't work. Nobody to call. Email links fail and send you in circles. I've rang them 3 times throughout the day because nobody came out within the time slotted. 'We can only apologise'....Scottish Power 👌given up for the evening because that's all I can do.”

“Awful company although im ywt to find one good energy company? Ive asked so many times how a co.pany that claims to use renewable sources foor energy such as the sun and wind can co tinuously up the prices and use excuses like the pandemic, the war in ukraine, international tensions or inflation. I didnt know any of them affected the weather but apparentley they do? My bill dates change every month i was even bill twice in one month yet ive been asking staff now for weeks how can this be yet they refuse to even acknowledge it. Avoid the company.”

“The worst customer service I have ever experienced. I have been trying to get this company to issue me with bills for actual meter readings, I have supplied them with photos of the meters showing the reading. They refuse to use accept these readings ,despite the new occupiers moving in giving them the same numbers on the meter readings! They have issued me with estimated final bills which are way over the actual usage. Their chatbot service won't take my readings, their online service won't take my readings, their customer service dept won't accept them either and have escalated my account to a debt recovery service. I have emailed, written and spoken to them for 2 months and clearly stated that I WANT TO PAY WHAT I OWE IN FULL, but they refuse to reissue bills with the actual readings! Next step for me is to copy in my MP and the ombudsman. The stress of willingly trying to pay what I owe has seriously affected my mental health.”

“If I could leave a zero I would. Absolutely appalling provider. Have complained to the ombudsman for the awful service. The call centre staff lie and all tell you different information. If you ask them to provide you with any extra information to confirm the points they are lying about they claim to not have access and you will just need to speak to the complaints team who will take up to 7 days to contact you.”

“Barely a company. Dispute started with them over a year ago. The customer service team never helps. So far I have contacted the company over ten times trying to resolve this issue at my cost. I have been hung up on by an operator after being on hold for 30 mins to get through. If you want a mockery of monkeys supplying you with electricity then you are looking at the right company.”
