Payed npower over £700 in May to get my account cleared only to be told were now £800 in debt and still owed £164 from May! We have apparently used £400 worth of gas throughout summer even though we cook with electric and our shower is also electric and only our kids use the bath! They're still demanding the money off us even though we have asked for evidence of our usage and for our meter to be checked! As soon as I can leave npower I will be and I would not recommend them to anyone!! You spend ages waiting to speak to someone who isn't helpful at all!

Con Artists Am with Npower for both my gas and electric and up till February 2014 paid by direct debit for both, but after numerous phone calls did not receive a bill for either for almost 2 years. Then got back dated bills in January 2014 showing I was in credit by over £900 for gas however got another bill in February 2014 stating I owe them over £1200 for gas. I rang was told I hadn't received bill for 2 years and was told they had problems with their system which isn't my problem. Was told that they would send my account to the back office to investigate and someone will be in touch once resolved (28 days max) Since have made numerous calls and keep being told the same thing. No one can explain how I was in credit and then in less than 4 weeks owe them over £1200 for gas all I keep being told is there is something not right with your account (tell me something I don't know) stopped my direct debits in February 2014 as they were going to take out over £300 a month. Still waiting for a reply have also sent emails but no reply. Keep being told my account is on hold till this is investigated but then I get letters threatening to cut me of and have to ring up again just seem to be going in circles. Not the first time this has happened but have had enough switching to British gas. Keep away from this company is all I can say.

Billed £90 per month for energy (after they said they could save us money if we changed from British Gas). Did not inform us of any debt on the account, but we ended up running up a debt of £800 in a matter of 2 - 3 months! They insist that we pay it all upfront, "no room for negotiations" from the customer service team. Other issues include wait times on hold for 1-2 hours at a time, they never call back when they say they will, and they have no concept of what they are doing to people! We have passed everything over to the Ombudsman and they are still seeking to get an attachment of earnings to pay off the debt that we do not owe! When we asked for all of our paper work to be sent through they charged us £10, and also sent us random private and confidential information belonging to other customers! Utterly shocking, how they still operate is beyond me!
