  • Hi there,

    Thank you so much for taking the time out to leave such a thorough review and share your feedback with us. We take the experiences and views of our members seriously as we're here to provide you with the best service possible.

    It looks like we've dropped the ball on a few things here and we'd love to put them right for you.

    Would you be able to drop us a line with your name and telephone number/email so that we can get in touch to sort out the above (0131 285 5510 or customerservices@peoplesenergy.co.uk) but also to make sure we fix the problems that are causing them to happen.

    We believe in owning up when we mess up and getting right onto it to fix it, so rest assured we'll be back to that company you love again. With over 16,000 members calling People's Energy home we're also closer now to beginning to pay back our first 75% of profits back :j.

    Thank you for getting back to me, I appreciate it. I contacted People's Energy by phone yesterday and was told you have raised a ticket but, as I say, there was no indication how long it would take to sort things out. Is the email address above a general customer service email address because I can't see that I will be told any different if I contact that. If you give me someone specific to talk to then that might help though.
  • So I got the quote and "joined".

    No acknowledgement email, other than one that said I had successfully set up a DD.

    Sent an email asking for confirmation that my switch application had been received, no acknowledgement of receipt of email.

    Called them. I guess the 18 seconds average waiting time is to get to the menu options. Waited on hold for a few minutes then hung up.

    All I know at the minute is that they can charge my bank account whatever and whenever.

  • Thinking of changing but I have an Economy 7 Meter, ;not been used for years at the cheap rate I just pay a normal rate all the time. Have just read something from someone on here that I will be penalised with a higher rate for having an E7 meter, is this correct and what is the difference in normal rate and what I would be charged?

    People's Energy, the matter I wrote about above still hasn't been resolved. I sent an email five days ago and marked it for the attention of the person you gave me details for but I haven't had any acknowledgement of the email let alone any help. Neither has anyone got in touch with me about the ticket that was supposedly opened when I spoke to someone on the telephone. I still can't access any bills so have no idea how much energy I have been using. Please would you get back to me about this?

    Update: all sorted now. Many thanks!
