Shocking service

Possibly the worst company I have ever had to deal with, every time you call you get a different outcome no one knows what they are doing, ask to speak to a manager you get told it’s not possible and the customer service wow avoid speaking to Victoria from call center attitude is shocking!

Delayed faulty smart meter replacement

When I phoned EDF customer service to discuss the issue about my gas smart meter which has not been sending the signal to EDF for a number of months. I was connected to Hazel. I then found out that the last meter reading was received in October 2025. I was not happy to have been kept for so long not knowing what is going on and receiving estimate bill for a long time. She vas very understanding, knowledgeable and supportive and suggests to log a complaint and later get back to me with the new appointment to change the faulty gas meter. Thanks Hazel, I appreciate your help and hope this issue can be resolved soon.

The customer service advisor was…unable to action my request

The customer service advisor was amiable but sent me a link for a new tariff that asked me to email in. He should have been able to access this directly for me.
A simple task made difficult by your processes.
