Helpful customer service experience

Rang with a few queries about switching to a fixed tariff. Initially, the number immediately cut off three times, then had 10 min wait to speak, but once through had a good experience with Mark who was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Truly Excellent Service !

Sarrah at EDF was patient and understanding in explaining my Tariff Renewal and Bill Payment Options. She did not hesitate to obtain and relay advice on the trickier aspects of what I was trying to achieve with EDF on this issue. I came away delighted at the service I had received and felt she had a complete grasp of my situation displaying both efficiency and empathy. Sheer Excellence!

On going complaint for 19 months now…

On going complaint for 19 months now and when I thought I was getting somewhere to settle a compensation amount, they message me back with

“Thank you for your message. Could you please provide a bit more detail on how you would like us to assist you? Also, to help us locate your account and assist you further, please confirm your EDF account number, full name, full address, and postcode”

This is on the same email chain that has asked me to reconfirm my details 3 times

@edf - can someone actually call me and not ChatGPT a response.

Kind regards,

After receiving an unexpected email to…

After receiving an unexpected email to advise my bill was due to increase beyond what we could afford I called and spoke to Dave, who after explaining the issues kindly assisted us with a plan which would be achievable and equally bring our account back into order. No fuss no just a straight forward conversation with someone that listened to what had happened and equally trying to resolve our issue whilst also providing guidance on certain things to look on the app
