Staff good attitude to client/customer

The staff was calm, patient and professional despite me being angry initially because of the bill sent to me but she patiently explained and solved the issue and I later apologised for my behaviour.

Switch2 goes the second mile!

Switch2 Customer Service Advisor understood my query and was most helpful in trying up help me book an 'Essential Maintenance' booking. When she found all slots were taken, she asked if I minded if the Engineer phoned me to make an apptmt. This suits my very well. Then she went the second mile and asked if I had any other issues. I told her I had written s letter last week about my bill, but was unsure if this was her Dept. She kindly listened for and we both decided that this maintenance check was next and actions could be taken after this. I am satisfied - having been a Switch2 customer for 11 years. Thanks, Emily

Irritating music and slow menu

Irritating music and slow menu, but great call handler. No appointments availanle on their system for essential maintenance, so have to wait for them to call back. Then they didn't call back, 2 weeks later sent a letter asking us to call to arrange an appointment- waste of their time and resources...

Reply from Switch2 Energy

Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you found our call handler helpful. We're sorry, however, that you experienced delays due to the lack of available appointments for your maintenance issue and appreciate how frustrating it can be to wait for a callback regarding an essential service. If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Unprofessional

Unprofessional, they didn't come on the day they were booked for, even if this was an emergency and it will take another couple of days to come back as they don't work during the weekend and I am at work.

Customer Service at its best

I had a small waiting time before talking to an advisor. The advisor listened to my query and was immediately on the ball to solve it. I particularly appreciated the fast and efficient customer service.

Meter readings

Switch 2 should be able to know my meter readings without me having to send them in myself.
