Hi David

I moved from Manchester to Paignton in November 2013.  On the whole the energy 
companies have been the worst, especially Eon.  I only used them because the 
previous occupier did.  I used them for 32 days exactly and they reported when 
I rang them, that the account had a 0 balance but they are still pursuing me, 
I’m known as the occupier;  clearly an automated system which treats customers 
in a very unpleasant way.

Obviously, I am with a different supplier but need to use the online system 
which I hate.  I could say a lot more but strongly recommend that you take 
meter readings say, once a week for a month then, perhaps, once a month.  
Unfortunately, this means having to get someone to read the damned thing 
despite the fact that smart meters are now available.  Even with these meters 
I’m not sure I would trust any of these companies.  Having said that,my 
previous suppliers have already repaid me over £300 refund:  they were Scottish 
and Southern.

Best of luck

David

Subject: [access-uk] Online utility accounts

I will shortly be needing to move house and get involved with online utility 
accounts and billing.



I would be very interested to hear of people’s good and bad experiences in this 
regard within the last few months.



TIA.
