Outfox Energy, 5* service and competitive rates.

What a pleasure to speak to Mohammed regarding my renewal options for energy. how nice to talk to someone who has such a full knowledge of energy options.
It is reassuring to know that I have been offered good advice and I am very happy to renew again.
I consider Outfox offers an outstanding service and very competitive rates and I would be happy to recommend them to my family and friends. Dave

My experience speaking with Mohammed

My experience speaking with Mohammed was great, he was very thorough and courteous. He dealt with my query efficiently.
I've only given a 4 star review because I had to wait 26 minutes for my call to be taken, this is not a reflection on Mohammeds performance.

Great Company and First Class Customer Service Team

I recently moved my electricity account to Outfox Energy. Mainly because I found them a lot cheaper (£100) than my previous supplier. Like a lot of transfers of details, there are sometimes little problems, and mine involved my Night Rate charges. I was very impressed with the way both Salma and Maggie, dealt with my query. I was quickly (same day) informed there was a problem, and kept informed on how it was being resolved to my satisfaction. I have delt with a few Customer Service teams over the years, and Outfox Energy are among the top 3. I would have no problem recommending this company to anyone, and their Customer Service team are first class.

Prompt reply

I sent an email query at 4.55pm on Friday and received a reply the next day (Saturday)
My account had been updated / new invoice issued and the meter issue escalated to the relevant department.

Many thanks to Aditya!

REVIEW UPDATE AGAIN! OUTFOX HITS BOTTOM

REVIEW UPDATE AGAIN!
Outfox hits bottom!
From bad to even worse. Can it get any more ridiculous. I hope not.
I have been dictated to get a smart meter to be able to get economy 7 tarriff now installed. I was told I would get a free Isolation switch, the SMS installer told me they replace them anyway so no favours there
I have it in an email that I am now on economy 7 tarriff. HOWEVER, On my portal it states a different tarriff. I have emailed outfox but they are ignoring me. It seems that they can just randomly pick a tarriff for you. It does not matter if you have chosen another one or if they have put in writing the tarriff you want is now working, totally unacceptable. The problem is can I trust these people, I really don't think so. This has taken weeks to arrange and I have only gone backwards, the worst customer service in the world total nightmare. Will I ever get this sorted watch this space. I guess the next step is the Ombudsman. If I was in charge of outfox I would be asking myself what am I paying these people for? I must also add how underhanded these companies are by hiding the unit costs and standing charges and just quoting a fictious amount, adding a clause it could be higher. Also for economy 7 there is no instructions on times. I did a search and even copilot was confused. Is this a total Joke?
I guess the only way out is to move to a more competent supplier with better prices and better customer service. I am totally upset with the whole saga. I have been a customer for some years and if this is how you treat loyalty then you are destined to follow the suppliers who no longer exist. Enough said for now.

Reply from Outfox Energy

Hi John,

We're sorry to see that the issues surrounding your renewal and Economy 7 tariff are continuing, particularly as you've been an Outfox Energy customer for several years.

We completely understand the main concern in your updated review. If you have received written confirmation that your Economy 7 tariff is active but your online account is displaying a different tariff, that discrepancy needs to be properly explained. It does not mean that a tariff has been randomly selected for you, but we appreciate why seeing conflicting information would undermine your confidence.

We would also like to clarify that tariff unit rates and standing charges are not deliberately hidden. These form part of the tariff information provided to customers and determine the actual cost of the energy consumed. Estimated annual figures are based on assumed or historic consumption and are therefore illustrations rather than guarantees of what an individual household will ultimately pay.

Economy 7 off-peak hours can also vary depending on factors including the meter configuration and region, which is why giving a single set of hours applicable to every Economy 7 customer can be misleading. However, you should be given clear information about the arrangement applicable to your own supply.

Regarding the isolator switch, this forms part of the electrical installation associated with the metering work where required. We're sorry if the way this was originally communicated gave you a different impression.

Most importantly, after the time you've already spent trying to arrange the correct tariff, you shouldn't now be left chasing an explanation about conflicting information on your account. Please respond to our Trustpilot information request so that the tariff recorded against your supply, the confirmation you received and the information displayed in your portal can be reviewed together.

We're sorry that what should have been a straightforward tariff change has become such a frustrating experience.

Kind regards,

Outfox Energy

Great service

I spoke with Sumayyah about charging an EV and what that might mean with regard to my current tariff and possible alternative tariffs. She was very knowledgable and extremely helpful. Thank you Sumayyah! The recorded menus were also easy to navigate and I wasn’t left waiting in line for long at all.

The response to my query was dealt with quickly and efficiently by initially the “Live Chat” and then subsequently via email from the Customer Service Representative

Great help and understanding

I'm having a bit of a trying time at the moment due to marriage issues and paying bills on multiple properties but Michael was extremely helpful. He reassured me about what I needed to do and guided me step by step through the processes to achieve what I needed.
