Very easy to top up the metre and the options for cheaper slots is brilliant. The meter is easy to read and shows how much gas and electricity you go through each day. I'm a happy customer.

Very poor SEG payment processes.

My call to your customer service resolved the issue within a few days and the person I talked to was very helpful. The only reason the review is only 4 star is because the call should never have been necessary in the first place.
My first SEG payment had been overdue for something like 12 weeks.
First it was paid to a mystery account. I sent several emails to say it hadn't been paid and eventually received a reply each time to say that yes it had. (No. It had not.)
After I submitted a poor review I was contacted to send my bank details (again.) (Same account I've been paying SP from for years.)
Still no first payment made. 2 more emails from me were ignored.
Then I made the call to customer support again and it was sorted out.
I have been paying SP for many years promptly and reliably.
Maybe SP could now start doing the same for me.
(Other energy providers are available.)

Out of the three energy providers I've used so far, Scottish Power has been the best. They offer excellent customer rewards, especially their quarterly rewards and the 10 hours of half price electricity over the weekend. Their tariffs are also quite reasonable.

I would recommend Scottish Power anytime, any day.
