“I was signed up by a rep telling me I would get £150 on a cashback card if I took a bundle out £50!a month. I didn’t get what he failed to mention was only homeowners get not Tennants and I’m a Tennant. What people do just to get you to sign up in middle of dispute. Worse company ever!!”

“Shameful company, if you leave they charge £75 termination fee which is somewhere in the small print. We have a smart meter and joined September 2024, initially ok but when we left the last month bill doubled and this month increased from £128 to £822.03. I have contacted the Energy ombudsman about this absurd charge and cancelled the DD and will go to court. Octopus are charging £73 so go figure!”

“Utility Warehouse are the worst company in the whole entire world, we moved to them, promised the world, but it was all lies. The worst pyramid scheme!! Total scammers! We have a faulty meter that took months to get fixed, now fixed, we are still stuck with £3,455 in debt! No contact from the company despite begging them! Customer service is awful, the complaints department “close complaints” without your knowledge. I’m shocked, this company has affected both my mental and physical health and not one person seems to care! I wouldn’t suggest this company to my worst enemies! Stay well away!!!!!!”

“From day 1, they were impossible to deal with. Systems dont work and their administration is useless. They dont even recognise my account number, despite the fact I could log in with it on the portal. Thank goodness I have now finished with them.”

“A year after leaving i get 2 late payment claims on my credit report! The £491' that was agreed to be wiped in October 2024 now comes back a year later and impacts my credit score and costs me! Disgusting service”

“This company is the biggest scam of the country. Incorrect billing based on estimates, even though actual metre readings were provided. For 1 month and 19 days in an unoccupied house (hardly any power and gas were used), they charged me over GBP 360. Worst customer service, both by email and over the phone. Wasting their customers' precious time. Many hours of my life wasted. One assistant is more incompetent than the other. If you are looking for an energy supplier - choose any company but this one. I want to give them -5 points but I can't.”

“Absolutely unhappy with their customer servise which is very confused about their own staff and services, and it’s a team of liars. For more than a month I’m trying to get them refund me money they took without my consent because they were taking over some internet provider, which I closed my account with, and took my information aswell and set an account with them which I never asked for. Now I’m struggling to get my money back, had to contact them more then couple times and was promised it’s gonna get sorted a few times but never did and now I got to wait for the next month to apparently get my money back? Ridiculous, don’t recommend, don’t use!”

“They showed a lot of patience as I explained what had happened and what I needed. It was clear they wanted to really understand my situation before offering a solution.”

“Shocking, ended up charging me a “cash back card fee” after moving house and somehow two months after moving I am still getting bills. They send you one email stating this and just carry on charging you. Just felt a bit sneaky.”

“Left Origin on 19th May and moved to Talk Talk same day. I know origin have since been taken over by UW and in June they started Billing me for Broadband. Must have been transferred by mistake. All settled up with Origin in May and now pay TalkTalk monthly. Now I’m being bombarded with bills from UW even though I’ve tried to explain my situation to them in phone calls, emails and registered letters. It’s disgusting and very stressful. I’m not a customer and never have been. They said I should take out a customer complaint but I told them I’d never do that as I’m not a customer.”

“Besides dropping backdated bills of substantial amounts out of the blue, you can never reach someone in their service, your problems are never fixed. I was told on the phone that my account is closed, and now I receive a bill for the address I moved out from 2 weeks ago, and I don't know how many times I let them know in writing and on phone the date I left the premises. They are nothing but nightmare. They never solve issues but keep creating them. Stay as away as possible.”

“Total disaster connecting broadband They changed my land line number although they many times assured me that they would not do so. It is now six days and I have not got my number and have no broadband. I am now offered an appointment for open reach to come to my houseon Wednesday to get back my number. My question is if they switched my number externally, why do they have to come to my house to rectify it. Plus the number I have now brings loads of wrong numbers at all crazy times.”

“There is no service. It's been off since last night. I need WiFi! And i need to end this today, because it's not the first time. It has cut out. Origin did better! Pity we had no choice, but I don't need this. I will switch ASAP, and I dare anyone to ask me for more money. How were we pushed onto this company when they have a 1+☆ rating? I'm afraid this will not do for me.”

“I was with Origin broadband and LEFT mid-July BUT seems Origin failed to implement this and pass all phone calls to its call centre in South Africa, there they refused to understand this despite 21 phone calls, 2 letters and 15 emails and now completely against my will, have moved me to UTILITY WAREHOUSE. At utility warehouse (who acquired Origin) I find the same bunch in South Africa are again the call centre – I am seriously stressed with this. It’s like swimming in treacle with them, lies, switching calls, transferring calls without telling you, long waits, calls going dead, text and emails unsigned and no return address - every time you call you have to start at the beginning and patiently explain all over again and again yet NOBODY there seems to understand, want to understand or take responsibility. Five (5) weeks+ later and still nobody seems to want to do what I want. This call centres performance is in all aspects a truly dreadful way to behave, oh and they are still sending bills.”
