".....WE CONTACTED YOUR EXISTING SUPPLIER TO ARRANGE YOUR TRANSFER TO US.... WE USED THE READINGS YOU GAVE US. THANK YOU." I logged on to confirm that everything has been updated - to be asked not only for meter readings again - but reminding me to submit ANOTHER meter reading between 20/12/2017 and 02/01/2018! I HAVE A SMART METER - FITTED BY EON - APRIL 2016 - WHY THE HELL ARE THEY ASKING ME FOR METER READINGS?
As I was starting to type my message to them on their 'contact us' page, WHEN a pop up appeared, inviting me to chat online. I filled in all the details, expecting to be able to chat to someone online, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO ADVISORS AVAILABLE - advisors (I am advised,) are available to chat online between the hours of 8.0 am and 8.00pm Monday to Friday. This was at 5.30pm. I had tried yesterday (Monday) at lunchtime, and got the same message.
So I tried to email them with the attachment showing the email from them, which confirms they have my readings. To do that, I clicked on the link to send an email with an attachment. Even that doesn't work - it just takes me to my email page - without showing their address. Seems they can't get anything to work.
Today, I got another call from one of their advisors, but missed it. Out of courtesy, I returned the call - only to be answered by a recorded message, telling me to ring the generally available number on their website (so obviously I wouldn't speak to the same advisor who called.) I was given no other option before the call terminated abruptly.
If this is how it goes with this lot - If this is how they treat their (NEW) customers, I don't look forward to spending the next 12 months trying to communicate with a bunch of idiots who simply cannot organise something as simple as updating a customer's details and make it perfectly clear that they don't wish to be contacted by customers, then frankly I've had enough already.
I'm switching to another supplier - penalty accepted - they're welcome to it - it'll be worth it to see the back of them and never have to contact them again.
EON and I will NEVER do business again.![]()

Leopard, I have been with them before and they were very good. I then switched to Sainsbury's energy who were also good but have now switched back to eon purely on price. The transfer (thus far, I'll keep you updated) has been smooth...I think you may have been unlucky.....or me, very lucky!! |
