Hi brightgirl
I would guess that your email providing Direct Debit was missing relevant information or that the information you provided was unsufficient to set up a Direct Debit there and then. Working night shift should make it much easier for you to contact us as we are open from 8am to 7pm. I sometimes like a long lie but surely you do not sleep that long?
Look at the link below regarding the call back facility:
http://www.scottishpower.co.uk/your-home/existing-customer/home.aspx
There are two different pages on the website. One for existing customers and one for non existing customers. Make sure that you are in the existing customer page and you will be able to arrange for a call back.
Kind Regards

I got email back to call customer services on 0845 etc etc.
I then sent more emails. Then I sent a letter to Atlantic Quay which also went unanswered. I left it at that but kept paying by card as and when I could because I didn`t need the stress. No I was not in arrears.
So did you phone back the 0845 number and try to give the details over the phone?0 -
Have there been ANY failed arrangements in the past?
Surely you must've had some reminders? Keen to help but like others it seems something is missing from this picture...Mixed Martial Arts is the greatest sport known to mankind and anyone who says it is 'a bar room brawl' has never trained in it and has no idea what they are talking about.0 -
No no no... No info was missing and had it any info missing then surely your email advisors can request this. Simple answers are call us. On my bill it says customer service by phone and email.
You lot simply want customers to call in rather than email the info and process it. How hard is that?Hi brightgirl

No arrangements in the past so nothing to miss. SP asked me what they could do to resolve the issue, the damage is already done and i`m getting nowhere at the moment. The missing part is SP`s thinks they are always right and the customer is always wrong. Thats damn unfair.0 -

Colin,
Well done for keeping your cool!0 -
So you were asked to phone them during opening hours to sort the problem out, but you failed to do so? Am I missing something?0
