“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!!”

“My service was cancelled and rescheduled for next year as they are under pressure to fulfill cancelled appointments. They the were the ones that made the appointment. The thing that gets me is they are still fitting new boilers and taking on new homecare customers surely fulfilling contracts that have already would be priority but then they couldn't care less about them I tried there live chat but as I was writing the complaint they cut me me off saying because of inactivity by far the worst company I have dealt with once they have your money they couldn't care less”

“British Gas Homeserve -toxic - steer clear Have been with British Gas Homeserve for 10 years and they used to be ok. However, they don’t now have enough engineers to provide anything other than emergency cover for total breakdowns during the winter, when you are most likely to need them. After they missed a number of appointments, I found they if you wish to raise a formal complaint you have to write to them, as they don’t respond to emails. Laughably they refer you to their Twitter or Facebook accounts. I shall be terminating my contract and would advise anyone to steer clear of this disastrous company.”

“Worst company ever and furthermore they obviously don’t care. I’ve never had any company direct so much BS at me and after dealing with them for a while and reading the total rubbish they right on there website I’ve come to the conclusion there only there for the money. Life is to short to do business with British Gas just do yourself a favour and go elsewhere. You have been warned.”

“My boiler has broken and I have no hot water and so booked an engineer through British Gas Homecare. The first appointment was booked for a Thursday from 08:00 to 18:00 and I waited in all day but the engineer did not show up. I then booked another appointment for Tuesday the following week between 12:00 to 18:00 and the engineer did show up at 11:15. He said he needed to order a part for my boiler and that he would fit it in the afternoon of the following day. I rushed back from visiting my elderly parents in the morning so that I would be able to meet the appointment. Without warning the appointment was cancelled and re-booked for the following day. Again I waited in all day but the engineer did not show up. I then phoned the helpline and was on hold for 42 minutes. When I eventually spoke to someone they agreed there had been an issue and that they would try to arrange for the engineer to come and fit the part. Several days later and I still have not heard anything so I tried to re-book an engineer appointment but again no engineer came and my online appointment disappeared. Hopeless...”

“I took the service homecare plan out on the 10 October to cover the heating and boiler .I was told they gave me electrics and all drains and pipe work.after 7 days my shower started leaking the man came out the next day took one look and said he didn't have time to do the job and to call the company to rebook another appointment .When I called they told me I wasn't covered due to the shower not being fitted correctly.I called British gas and was told the same ,they took my money and because the job was more than a hour they made this lame excuse and said they would register my complaint but this won't get my disabled wife and daughter a shower .what a load of rubbish how can they make a contract on to not fulfill there obligations.”

“Took the morning off work to have my boiler serviced as per the homecare 2 plan. This has been booked for over 6 weeks, they then re-arrange my appointment to December without even letting me know. Complete home this company is, stay well clear of it”

“Would give no stars if I could, annual service cancelled yet again and I assume the next one will also be, on hold for 15 minutes on the phone then cut off, I have no intention of paying £507.55 for another year of this appalling service”

“After a dispute with BG regarding confusing and unclear billing , received threats of extra charges and debt collectors. The billing mess was TOTALLY BG problem. So I made a complaint and was told to IGNORE the threats. After 5 weeks of NOT agreeing with the so called BG customer service and pushing hard to make my point about the bullying tactics that BG use , I paid my final Bill with agreement by the lady that had been trying to COPE with obviously , a huge number of complaints. Final Bill paid , complaint 'resolved' .... and then the Debt collection Agency letter arrives. Bloody JOKE is BG. Hopeless.”

“My Energy supplier went bust ,so o ofgem switched me to British Gas and on the 30/09/21 opted to go on a cheaper tariff Fixed price August 22v2 and was told it would take 7 days to change over , 15 days went by and I complained only to find out that I couldn't have this tariff even though it had been agreed by live chat to which I have a copy of the transcript , during my complaint I was offered another tariff and compensation of £20 I initially excepted as long there were no strings attached but because I would not drop my complaint as punishment the tariff was taken off the table. To finish none of this is my fault and after 16 days I want to leave this nightmare behind and have emailed Neon Reef a supplier I used to be with and it's a bit more expensive but there customer service is so much better than what I have experienced and I fully intend to go the ombudsman. Avoid this company. Regards , Mr Dawson very unhappy customer.”

“This is the worst company I have ever experienced.. we have booked our boiler service two months in advance and then they have just text us, not even called, to say it’s cancelled. I have called up customer service who said they will fix the issue whilst I was on the phone and half way through cut me off! I would suggest anyone to think twice before using them!”
