Resolving account query

I had a query regarding my monthly account from EDF and decided to phone their customer help line to sort it out. The call was taken by Cal who was able to answer my queries, resolve the issue and update my account whilst I was on the phone. By the time we had finished the call and I had looked up my account online, it was up to date with the correct information. Thank you.
