Chat on the website is hopeless

Chat on the website is hopeless. waiting on the phone for 35+ minutes is not acceptable and being cut off twice with no attempt to call me back is poor. They were the cheapest - lesson learned, you get what you pay for.

Extremely disappointing experience with…

Extremely disappointing experience with Yü Energy.

We have had ongoing problems with estimated billing, incorrect meter readings, rejected meter readings, smart-meter communication issues and additional charges. Despite providing actual meter readings with photographic evidence, the issues have still not been properly resolved.

Yü Energy’s complaints team previously assured us that the account would be placed on hold and investigated. Instead, we have continued receiving payment demands and collection correspondence.

Yü Energy has now also objected to our transfer to another supplier because of a balance that is formally disputed, and the account has subsequently been placed onto PAYG.

We are not refusing to pay genuine energy usage. We simply want accurate bills based on actual consumption and a proper explanation of the charges.

Very stressful experience for a small business. I would not recommend Yü Energy based on our experience.

Homa was very helpful

Homa was very helpful and sorted the issue out for me there and then where others I had spoken to before simply referred back to a script and processes.

Thank you Homa, great customer service!

Customer Service with a smile

After answering my query on the telephone with regards to renewing my electricity contract, Nithyan went out of his way to get the information that I needed, I found him very knowledgeable, and very friendly, and easy to communicate with, a total credit to the Yu Energy Customer service team.
I then renewed my contract for another three years.

Reply from Yü Energy

Hi Ian,

We're sorry to hear about your concerns regarding the charges on your latest bill and understand why the difference between your energy usage and the overall bill has prompted questions.

Having reviewed the account, your supply is currently registered as a Half-Hourly meter. This type of meter can attract higher standing charges, which is contributing to the overall cost of your bill and is separate from the electricity you've consume.

If you believe the current meter classification is no longer appropriate for your premises, you can contact your Distribution Network Operator, National Grid, to discuss whether the supply can be reclassified. You can then opt for a smart meter.

We're happy to explain the individual charges on your Yü Energy bill so you have a clear understanding of how the total has been calculated.

Kind regards,

Yü Energy Customer Services

I received few phone calls recently

I received few phone calls recently, they says is on behalf of YU energy but I doubt it and tell them will contact YU directly to make sure. Then I contact YU energy through the online chat room, one of their members Lilly have me to sort out the problem. Everything so clear. Thanks for Lilly’s help. Really appreciate that.

Hi,

We're sorry to hear how frustrated you are with your account and the charges you've received.

Having reviewed the account, we cannot see that a Change of Tenancy request has been submitted to us. Any outstanding balance on the account will also prevented the requested transfer to another supplier from progressing.

We'd like to help get this clarified and resolved. If there has been a change in responsibility for the premises, please provide the relevant Change of Tenancy information so this can be reviewed. Our team can also discuss the outstanding balance and any concerns you have regarding the charges applied to the account.

Kind regards,

Yü Energy Customer Services
