The kind operator was able to get over my terrible Italian and set up a direct debit. She was very tolerant and kept her sense of humour. The whole thing was made very easy for me.

Hera Group’s business practices are a masterclass in dishonesty. I have had representatives repeatedly show up at my home using "authority" tactics to trick me into a contract.
They use deceptive scripts, claiming to be the "sole providers for the region" and insisting that signing with them is mandatory rather than an option. They aggressively demand to see bills from current providers under the guise of a "required audit" or "system update." These are predatory lies designed to confuse residents and pressure them into switching services.
Even more disturbing is their total disregard for the law. I have submitted formal GDPR requests for the deletion of my data, yet their agents continue to arrive at my door addressing me by name. This confirms that they are illegally retaining my personal information and using it to facilitate this harassment.
To summarize: Hera Group ignores legal privacy mandates, retains data they are required to delete, and uses deceptive high-pressure sales tactics to corner people in their own homes. Do not trust them, do not show them your bills, and do not let them in.
Absolutely rubbish! They have no capacity to handle customers who do not speak Italian! Customercare has no idea that other languages exist and also quite reluctant to solve the issue. Then you are left with only email which they are not replying regularly. Then they overcharge so much! And you have no way to resolve the situation.. it just feels like customer harassment at this point!!

The best part of being a customer for Hera was to leave! 2 simple steps and now I am with Octupus.
Everyone please just leave.

Absolutely do not recommend!! Especially for people without fluent italian. Not only they do not know a drop of english their customer services also suck and they overcharge SO MUCH. They have created numerous inconveniences for us such as credit checks and cutting our gas without even a notification… They did not let us change the subscription to our name and the last tenant of our house (who i am not in contact with) is still on the documents. I have been dealing with them for months they do not help to make the process easier, they just make it worse and worse!!

Even tho I don't speak good Italian (yet!) Hera has a good English version of most of their site. Their chat people as well speak very good English. I just started their service and I am very happy with the overall experience. Thank your letting me give my opinion, John :)
