“The charges are extortionate. I don’t have the hot water on and rarely use the heating in my two bedroom flat, but I’ve been charged £100 for three days over this weekend! I’ve switched to octopus, but the supply doesn’t start until tomorrow. Utilita say my meter has now run out and they have closed my account a day early! The only way to top up is to go back to them, which I won’t do, but in the meantime I have no power and a freezer full of food. Something is very wrong here!”

“This energy company is a joke .They do not help there loyal customers when needed.The cost of Gas and Electricity is just ridiculous and they cant say its because things have gone up in price its there doing on there prices.I have put a complaint to them since june 2022 and up yo today they have still not contacted me or dealt with my issues as same issues are still happening. I have been with Utilia for 9 years and they were ok in the beginning but now they are atrocious and i think they need to be investigated by the correct regulation team. They just do not have any care or consideration for there customers they just leave them stressed, worried and frustrated well that's my personal opinion on this horrible company.”

“Absolute shambles of a company. My 70 year old mother has been without Gas for over 3 weeks. No one answers the phone and she has spent over 7 hours on hold trying to speak with someone. Avoid at all costs.”

“An unbelievably bad experience at every stage of their pricess. The app (quite pretty but also quite useless), the creaking infrastructure, the non-existent customer service, the outrageous pricing, and simply the complete lack of accountability makes your blood boil. How can the government allow such companies to do business?”

“I am 100% not in debt yet they’re charging me for the previous tenants debt. I’ve been trying to call them for 2 months but they don’t answer, and on the rare occasion they do they transfer me to a closed phone line. I’m going insane”

“Please never go to this company, they don't respond to emergencies, have you waiting on the phone just to hang up multiple times. Some of them are overtly rude and don't want to help you in anyway. They refuse to pass the phone to the manager, and point blank lie about the money you owe them to make commission. They will transfer money from one utility to pay another balance without your permission and then tell you they don't see the money in either account. These people are scammers and will do everything to stop you from knowing the truth about where your money is and how much your true balance is!!!”

“By far the worst energy supplier. Moved in last month and had to pay a previous tenants debt of £60 in order to get £20 worth of electricity for the month. Was told I won't get a refund. Call times are absolutely ridiculous you would be waiting about 2 hours for someone to answer and just pass you on to someone else”

“I won some concert tickets last march and never received them. I contacted Utilita and was told to pick a concert of my choice and the tickets would be sent for November I never received them. I would strongly advise anyone with Utilita not to enter the competitions you don't receive the prize you win.”

“Hands down the worst customer service experience I've had for years. We are currently moving home and arranging for Utilita to hand over energy supply to our new house. After contacting our current energy suppliers (hold time c. 30 seconds), was kept on hold for over an hour with Utilita, whose automated voice claimed (falsely) that the issue could be solved online (it can't) before being told in person that Utilita would not address our issue prior to moving in and would not give a callback, as "We don't do that." Another hour on hold to look forward to!”

“Left with no gas after paying my pay as you go 50 but a technical error on utilitas part has left me freezing I'm disabled and meant to be a priority but from 5 to 8 when they finally cut me off I spoke to 10 people who continued to put me on hold and now I've eaten nothing all day and no hot water heating or food despite paying customer service is horrible and customers are treated like rubbish by all staff (I spoke to 10 in 3 hours ) all were rude and done nothing to help utilita don't care about customers at all I wasn't even asking for free gas I'd paid and still treated like rubbish”
