Telephone staff contradicted what is specified in web site for bord gais

Signed up on bord Gais for telephone call back . Checked the website that they will do upgrades on systems installed by other contractors which was ok with warranty on their install only. Today I got my call back and as soon as I mentioned an upgrade he had no interest and said that bord Gais won’t do upgrades unless the remove the previous install and start again. Please change your website or educate your staff to whichever is correct it’s just wasting everyone’s time

Changing my Review from 5 star to 1…

Changing my Review from 5 star to 1 Star. I went to pay for my bill and shortly after paying for it, The Money went to Bord Gais and out of my Bank Account BUT my Bill never went down. So you essentially just robbed my money. Even if you didnt do you think I care about your 24 hour delays "for things to process" when my anxienty is CRIPPLING!?!? You guys have SERIOUSLY lost ALL TRUST I had in you and honestly if my bill isn't gone down by tomorrow morning, first thing at 8am I'll be ringing to cancel my contract. UNPROFESSIONAL, INCONSIDERATE AND UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! I should actually expose your company on my social following for how MUCH YOU'VE RUINED MY DAY.

Disconnection of electricity to vulnerable customer

I am a registered vulnerable customer with whom has a payment plan with Bord Gáis. In spite of these 2 facts I have been issued with a notice of disconnection of electricity to the premises and threats of debt collectors. I have been making my payments, I am on your register of vulnerable customers so I am at a loss as to why this is happening, and how Bord Gáis can treat their customers this way

Fantastic team for our new boiler

Thank you to all the Bord Gais team who worked in our house the last 2 days . From Naoise and his colleague who did the initial survey on my boiler and talked us through the work that needed to be done to the 5 lads who were in my house removing old boiler installing new one and all the other work in between . I especially want to thank Matthew and Paddy who were here 2 days in a row who answered all my stupid questions and reassured me when things were going wrong. Matthew was in charge and he was great to deal with . They were brilliant all 5 lads were and I’m very grateful to the great team that you sent to us . Most of all thank you for giving us heat .
