So impressed with Ovo. A recent startup experiencing significant growth, yet I have always found they answered my queries in a reasonable time frame. They have the most innovative plans and in July th... See more

OVO Energy works for me

Jasmine was lovely, efficient and knew what she was talking about, offering me a number of alternatives on how I could use my excess funds.

A log of my previous calls requesting…usage & values

A log of my previous calls requesting invoices & usage details will show that whilst your personnel tried to determine the problem, nothing was achieved until yesterday, when I received advice of credits, but still no invoices. Today's call to Jasmine had her research the problem & resolve it rapidly with patience & cordiality - full marks!

Quality Listening Skills - Fast Response

Jess understood and answered my queries immediately without any fuss whatsoever. Listening skills are taken for granted these days, but not everyone is good at it. Jess is…thank you for your efficiently….Keith…

So Very helpful!

So Very helpful!
I didn't have to wait long for Jess to take the call. I explained to Jess my question regarding a recent invoice and Jess sorted it quickly. Great Customer Service!

Jess is the one you want

Jess was so lovely and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble and she was able to answer my complex query with no issues what so ever. It's a stark contrast to the customer service I've experienced with other energy companies.

Easy to deal with

Jess was great to deal with regarding my request to refund excess account credit to my bank account. Jess explained that I couldn't withdraw any Australian Government rebate money that formed part of my account credit. I was offered a refund for a slightly reduced amount and the ability pause direct debit for a while so I could use up the account credit that was still there. This was well explained and a great suggestion for me so I went along with it.

AVOID - Very sneaky company

Terrible customer service, They charge you more than what they advertise and then tell you it your problem and they do not care at all. They actually recommend you find a cheaper rate at a different retailer. SO take their own advise and DO NOT use OVO ENERGY and find a cheaper or better customer service retailer. You have been warned now its your own fault if you use them

Horrific Communication

Literally impossible to get into contact with them. I have called several times across a regular business day but told it was 'outside of hours', tried online chat no response, sent emails and no communication. Will be cancelling as soon as I can actually get onto someone. Absolute joke.
