A service to be proud of.....

The company gives service as you would expect unlike many other companies in the same or similer business. I have dealt with most service suppliers and there are a lot of very poor responses to queries. Bord Gais gives an excellent response service.

Easy from star to finish ✨️

I get a text or a call every year to remind me about my boiler service,I then get an option of a date and time that suits sometimes I am not able to have the service carried out within a week or two due to work so have it done a month or so later,I always get a text a day or two before as a reminder which is very handy my appointment this time was between 8 and 12 Monday morning the engineer arrived at 8.20 and was gone less than an hour later our engineer was John he was very efficient,quite and the place was spotless when he left. I have always dealt with this company and find them very easy to deal with and helpful on every level from customer service, cheaper rates,to yearly services

We couldn't be happier with the service Dylan provided from start to finish. He was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole solar panel installation process straightforward and stress-free. He took the time to answer all of our questions and kept us informed every step of the way.
What really stood out was his after-sales support. Months after the installation, we had a query, and Dylan went completely out of his way to help us, responding quickly and making sure everything was resolved. That level of customer service is rare these days and speaks volumes about his commitment to his customers.
We highly recommend Dylan to anyone considering solar panels. Fantastic service, excellent communication, and genuine care both during and long after the installation. Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A great service from person who answered my call. She explained exactly how much my new plan would cost, compared to what I had paid for the last year and then compared it to others in the market.
There was no pressure.

The website is simple to use ( I'm a pensioner, but I find it simple to use)however, I feel that the standing charges and carbon tax and vat are making life very difficult for the customer.

Hi John,
Thanks for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you find the website easy to use. We understand your concerns around charges.
Carbon tax and VAT are set by the government, so we don’t have control over these, but we’ll continue to review our pricing to offer the best possible value for our customers.

Been trying to cancel my account for a week now, but the Bord Gais website does not work. I try to call the number provided on the website, where recorded voice tells you they are too busy and refers you to the website which does not work.

I had a very easy experience.

I had a very easy online booking process to arrange the boiler service. I got a date and time that suited me straight away. Good communication from that point on up to the engineer arriving. He was great (James) being very professional and friendly. Clearly identified himself and got to work. Asked some questions when needed and went through the findings at the end. Very nice to deal with.
