I was the victim of that "tendency" Kay Wallace spoken about. I received a HUGE final electricity bill from them and when spoke to SP they started the story of "inflation" and "give us the receipts". Only by threatening them with a full blown court case I finally got that bill revoked. After 3 years with them!! BEWARE!! Never again for me that's for sure.
Posted by Stepan K. , 15th January 2008Scottish Power, we had duel fuel with them, I will never go with them again. Me and partner split up, I rang and told them about this and told them to put my name on bill only. I also told them that the direct debit was to be cancelled as this was in ex partners name and I wanted to pay with payment card. They said they would do this, my ex cancelled dd with bank, I changed electric and gas and went with some1 else as Scottish Power kept putting monthly payments up. I owed £270. I rang and told them that I could not afford to pay all this amount as I had my other gas and electric to pay for this, they said was ok. Well they went and took the lot out of my ex bank account and left him od with no money to cover the mortgage. I rang and told them I had cancelled dd with them as I was no longer with partner, they said the bank should of told them. My ex went into the bank to find out what was going on, it was on record that he cancelled dd for Scottish Power, there was also 2 other dd set up for scotish power that my ex didn't no about. I didn't no they could do this. Scottish Power said that as I had changed my gas and electric duel fuel it now had gone to 2 sep bills and that was what they recovered from ex bank They had no right, my ex has put in for money to be returned from his bank. This doesn't help, the mortgage gets paid in 2 days.
Posted by Kelly Duckworth, 04th January 2008Terrible company. Do not use! Moved into a new build flat back in Feb 05 now Dec 07. They messed up all the meters and was going to different flats instead of the allocated flat. Been on their case since 2005 as have never paid a bill. Set up 3 direct debits all of which they have cancelled without notifying me of doing it or why!! Been calling to resolve the issue for 2 and a half years now. Told I will get a call back (even from their managers) and never have in the whole 2 1/2 yrs. Now they are trying to charge me over £1000 pounds but can't prove it was ever my electricity. Spoke to a manager on 23rd Nov 07 to attempt a final resolution to which she was going to call me back. Now on the 5th Dec no call back and have sent the account to Debt collection.
Posted by Vickey Tapsell, 05th December 2007Not a very helpful company. I've been with them for 3 months now and they want to increase my Direct Debit by an extra £41.00 an month, which now makes it £111.00 per month. That will make it an £1332.00 per year but we only use £950.00 per year.
Posted by Mr. R. Richards, 01st October 2007I moved in to my new home at the end of May and they only took out 2 direct debit payments but charged me for 3 months. They then revised my direct debit to more than double what I was paying. When I called they said they couldn't make it any lower.
Posted by Frances Meek, 03rd September 2007Not very good company if you have to budget.
Scottish power has a tendency to issue big final electricity bills to people who use prepayment meters. They then ask for receipts from four years ago and if you don't have them they tell you that you're liable for bill. Not very helpful at all. Be careful.
