Mixed experience of UW Services - V Good versus V Bad

This relates to a call I made to UW Insurance services because I was finding it impossible to communicate effectively with the UW Boiler Service Team. The lady at Insurance was extremely helpful and attempted to contact the Boiler Team on my behalf to ascertain if a service had been cancelled or not, even though it wasn't her part of the UW business. The communication from the boiler service team was not clear and I needed to clarify it to ensure that I would be at home if the service was to go ahead. She called me some hours later to say that she had been unable to get through to the Boiler team. Subsequently I received a number of messages and emails which contradicted themselves regarding the date for my outstanding service and I'm still waiting for confirmation that it will actually occur sometime this year.

Great customer service!

The UW representative, who's name is Zaid, took total ownership of my issue and invested a significant amount of time in, not only identifying the problem but also in raising the necessary engineer intervention.
Once the engineer got involved the problem was soon resolved to my satisfaction.
This was my first experience of the UW customer service experience which exceeded my expectations. Thank you!

I am afraid the switch has not worked

I am afraid the switch has not worked . I have set up numerous times. The system came on each time but when the tv's have been switched off they will not work when switched on again. Very frustrating!! I really don't know what to do. Unfortunately the TalkTalk system was brilliant and never failed.

Terrible company

Terrible company, don't take out the cashback card as it's very difficult to cancel once you leave and they charge you £3 per month for not using it. They also couldn't explain to me why our final bill was so high despite the final reading being very close to the estimate.

Hello Emily,

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that your experience ending your time with us has been so frustrating. We aim for our billing and cancellations to be as clear as possible, so it’s disappointing to hear we missed the mark.

I can confirm that we have raised a ticket to the relevant department in order to cancel your Cashback Card as soon as possible. In relation to your final bill, this includes a gas budget plan deficit which was applied to the bill following your account closure. The deficit was due to your usage being higher than your monthly payments.

Rest assured, your comments will be shared with the wider team to help us enhance our service going forward.

Take care,
Lauren

If you are disabled

If you are disabled, avoid them like the plague! They promise assistance then don’t deliver. I was told someone would come and read my meter three times a year. A year and a half on - no reading! Impossible to get through to helpline.
The prices are great but customer service awful.

Hello Linda,

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We're sorry that you did not receive the assistance promised and that you've had difficulty contacting our helpline.

I've sequestered some additional information and if you can check your junk/spam folder and respond that'd be great.

UPDATE: Thank you for providing your details, a request has been sent to the team to arrange a meter reader to attend and obtain a gas reading.

I am experiencing some frustrations with the service …

I appreciate your customer service every time I need to call but I still do have a reservation about the switch i made from another energy provider back to UW, Till this moment, they still call me to inform me that my electricity has not been switched yet and I will have to be paying to them, this is disappointing to me and frustrating. I don't know why this keeps happening and I was told by UW CS that all has been sorted out.I don't know what to think or do again, at least it is your job to complete that and not mine.

Customer service is a joke

Customer service is a joke, they cant talk very good English.!
Took them 5 months to get my gas meter readings on a smart meter, estimated for 5 months, then left me woth a 800 quid bill!!.
They need to offer better communication with the customers, eg when you go over your monthly budget amount in used gas and electric, to send an additional message via text or email to notify the customer. The bills are not user friendly for people with learning difficulties, so a simple text each month to say you have used more energy over your monthly payment amount would be good.!!

Hello Gazza,

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry for the stress your recent bill has caused. We understand how frustrating it is to rely on estimates, especially when a smart meter is in place. In order to look into this further, I've requested some additional information and when you have a moment to respond, it would be greatly appreciated.

We also truly appreciate your feedback regarding the clarity of our bills and your suggestion for proactive text alerts when usage exceeds a monthly budget. This is a brilliant idea for making our service more accessible for everyone, and we will be sharing your comments with the relevant teams to help us improve our service.

Take care,
