“I'd have given no stars if that were an option. I have been trying for two days now for a friend to notify of moving into an address where the meter has a debit from the previous occupier. 6 hours on the phone yesterday, 4 hours so far today. Automated messages end suddenly, terminal waiting on hold with no indication of how long the queue is, no channels work - online chat is a BOT and is useless, web pages for online move don't work and no-one replying to facebook messages either. It's a disgrace that a utility can treat captive customers with such contempt during the winter months.”

“Impossible to get in contact with them, in the small chance you do get through they'll hang up on you mid-conversation and you're back at the beginning again. I've been trying to sort out my government £400 for the past three months and it's still unresolved. The few phone line workers they have are rude and frustrating to talk to. DO NOT SWITCH TO SCOTTISH POWER”

“Scottish Power should be investigated by Ofgem. I am sure Ofgem must had several complaints against SP but have decided not to do nothing about it. So I have decided to take my complaint further to the Ombudsman Service. Lates hope they can solve my problem.”

“Incredibly overpriced tarrifs - also nonsensical payment expectations. I submittex a meter reading after being prompted once, only to be called up a couple of weeks later telling me they would be taking legal action if i didn't pay a bill. I asked them what bill this was asd i pay quarterly. It turns out, submitting a meter reading creates immediate expectation of payment, which is moronic and scummy. Additionally, their website is terrible, and they have thousands of people with no real accounts or ability to check tarrifs because they're not fully registered but the website literally doesn't generate password reset emails for them. Stay away if possible, the fact that this company is still operating is a disgrace to the nation.”

“ScottishPower is the scum on this 🌎 it’s now 5wks I have been trying to get my meter sorted out, all I get is chat on line😡 the prat’s who I chat with are based in India and doesn’t have a clue how to interact with people and read from a text book, they are full of s..t all they do is tell you lies after lies, I have tried several times to speak to a real person and all I get press this number that number and after 3hrs no joy😡😡😡 wished I never signed up with this useless company😡 I don’t want compensation? Just for my meter to be sorted out and for it to work correctly, they are happy to take my money and do sod all to help their customers😡 shame on you ScottishPower😡 it’s the elderly I really feel sorry for🙏🏾🙏🏾 The way you are treating them. I have sent them several photos proving my problem and 5wks later nothing.”

“I phoned Scottish Power about the £66 government energy fund, as I hadn't received any money. Finally, at the end of November, I was given an RTI code. The RTI code didn't work. In the end, after numerous emails, phone calls (most of which weren't answered), they sent out a new prepayment key with £66 on it. I haven't received November or December's payments yet. I am trying to top up three times this week, in case it actually works. Ofgem can give an 0800 number for Scottish Power if you phone them. At least it's free from a landline. If you put in an official complaint to Scottish Power, then after 8 weeks you can complain to Ofgem. Perhaps if numerous people do this they might finally start paying attention. I would also suggest contacting The Sun newspaper, as they have already published an article about Scottish Power not paying the money to customers. Also, contact your local MSPs. Their emails will be on the .gov website. The only way Scottish Power will start treating customers fairly if when they are forced to.”

“Took on a new property, there is a debt of £300 on the meter, have called them 4 times, took an average of 3 hours each time to speak to a person and its still not sorted. I put £20.00 on the meter and got to keep £6.00. The number they gave me (on 2 separate occasions) to re-set the card was a digit short. Try to call them again yesterday and I gave up after 3.5 hours. As such I am unable to move in. Date of experience: 05 December 2022”

“Just the worst experience, extending for a whole year. Can't go into detail here because the issue is complex involving bereavement, a property with energy bills I have inherited and a spectacular lack of communication between SP departments. It's just impossible to get any sense out of anyone to resolve an ongoing problem. Everyone on the end of the phone is polite and helps the best they can but they are held to a script and set of procedures and are unable to help in any real terms. Oh, here's another trick. One department promises to put you through to another and then the phone goes dead! Really nice.”

“I had a voucher emailed to me in november for the £66 credit from goverment for october. I still havent had the £66 for November. I was told by the company that i have to top up my electric key 3x and then it would appear, so i topped up 3x and nothing. Trying to get hold of them and they put you thru to a robot. The company is a complete shambles and something needs to be done about it.”

“ScottishPower, it is RUBBISH POWER. Rubbish company and ill-mannered customer services. Thieves in all the word senses. I filed a complain against them with the ombudsman-services. The problem since 05/09/2022 and every customer service I get in touch is more rubbish than the other and they contradict each other: one said no direct debt set and the second said it is set. We should all file complains against them with ombudsman-services, so that they behave and respect. DO NOT ACCEPT THEM BEING RUBBISH, DUMP THEM IN THE BIN WHERE THEY BELONG”

“The worst company ever.. 1. Waiting time on chat couple of hours, when they respond and you not gonna see message they disconnecting. 2. When you agree something with them, out of nowhere someone is changing your agreed things 3. Direct Debit - have to fight with SP to lower your DD, they are charging at least double time. When you lower, after one month they are increasing DD.”

“Terrible. Just moved into a rental flat supplied by Scottish Power. Their own system won't recognise the account number they sent me, nor the post code, yet the MPAS Operations query I raised confirmed they are the supplier. Useless chatbot, eventuall managed to get hold on someone via Twitter so they may now have my opening meter reading on their system. I'll be moving away from them ASAP.”

“Rubbish customer service,seriously avoid these poor standards,they don't value there customers, up to 3 hours wait on chat,they don't care about your needs”
