  • Nope he didn't leave me anything. He came in, looked at the meters and then left.

    Hi

    Anyone calling from E.ON will have clothing with the E.ON brand clearly visible. They will also carry an identification card which you can inspect.

    There will be a phone number on the card which your Nan can call to check the caller's identity if you are unsure.

    The Powergen brand was withdrawn in December 2007. Anyone calling with this logo should be turned away immediately.

    It would help us stop these occurrences if anyone experiencing similar problems to JordanShannon's Nan would contact us. Please call 0800 015 0987 to report such issues.

    We sometimes employ independent companies to read meters. These, too, will have logos and identification cards detailing who they work for. Give us a call if you are unsure about any reps claiming to be from E.ON.

    As Spiro says, we can set your Nan up with a password which anyone from, or working on behalf of, E.ON would need to know when calling. Again, give us a call if you want us to do this.
