I have to speak as I find…. I made an online booking over the weekend and got an appointment for Tuesday. I have never made appointments online before. Excellent communication! I get a text to say engineers on their way then 5 mins later a call from the guy to say he will be with me in 15mins. There were two men David Lawley & Jeffrey Riley both were efficient with PPE for Covid before they entered my home. They made my hob safe and ordered part for me. Both I have to say we’re very pleasant guys. Thank you for putting my mind at ease and getting the job sorted out. They are both an asset to British Gas! Thank you!!

Had a problem with the boiler and on 3 occasions they came out and not only fixed it but replaced parts that were on the way out earlier than they had to so the boiler would function properly without calling them out again

I have used British Gas for various things such as installation and maintenance of boiler. I have now changed from EON energy suppliers to British Gas as EON are a complete nightmare. I rang British Gas and was able to speak to a person - not possible with EON today and he was very helpful. Bills from EON are a nightmare, British gas very clear.

I had electrician come to sort out electrical problem. He was firstly very professional and friendly. I felt he was safe in his practices carefully explaning things to me. Also without asking he put on overshoes and wore a mask. He assured me he used hand sanitizer multiple times. He was very respectful and responsible and told me he does regular Covid lateral flow tests and currently is negative. Reassuring to know this. A great asset to British Gas and also paperwork given to me was very neatly written. No signature required due to Covid. Felt happy and safe to have him in my home and was pleased he got it sorted in timely fashion. Thank you

My boiler covered by Homecare recently failed leaving us without hot water and central heating. After encountering a little delay on the automated system with my appointment I eventually spoke to an operative at British Gas Call centre, believe this was in South Africa (but may be mistaken). The operative took ownership of the situation and communicated with the the planning team to ensure early attendance of a field engineer. The first chap attended and determined the parts required however due to workloads a second engineer (Andy 3995143) attended. He was particularly clear and fully understanding of the requirement for our quite old and unique boiler. There was a need for follow up visits, including weekend and he was absolutely brilliant. I appreciate these are challenging times for both the field engineers as well as BG itself but sometimes it is easier to be negative about our own businesses so I felt it only appropriate to commend BG in the way that they dealt with my own situation ; including the lady in the call centre as well as the excellent field engineer. WELL DONE BG !!

Booking a service on line is very good. But booking a repair is a night mare as the dairy is six or seven weeks waiting. We had a leek in the boiler and a bucket collecting the water under the boiler. It was a hard trying to explain on line that we wanted a repair ASAP and its also bank holiday. I phoned on Tuesday and spoke with a human who was very apologetic and undstanding an engineer was at the house within a hour and the job was fixed in a couple of hours. Well done BG

I don't usually take the time to leave reviews but on this occasion I feel I should. I spoke to a lovely guy called Simon (collections department) today who helped me work out my arrears with British Gas. Not only this, but he took the time to explain how my new meters work, set me up a new direct debit and explained exactly how the units and charges work. He has arranged an appointment to get my gas meter fixed so that I do not have the added hassle of uploading my meter readings and creating room to call back into arrears. This is the first time I have had a thoroughly enjoyable experience when dealing with a utility company. More reps like Simon please :)

I’ve never had complaint with them. I had issue with my boiler and they came out in three hours and fixed everything. I’ll definitely recommend them
