Absolute worst heating supplier
Absolute worst heating supplier, or any energy supplier, I’ve ever had to deal with.
Since Metropolitan took over our flat from the previous heating supplier, the service has been shockingly poor. My account initially showed incorrect meter data which would have caused a materially inflated bill, almost a thousand pound, had I not queried it, and I have since been billed on estimated readings despite having a smart meter. When challenged, they suggested the meter may have fallen out of communication, but offered no clear explanation, no credible fix plan and no timeframe even when the previous supplier didn’t have any issue with it.
Their WhatsApp support is an exhausting runaround: repeated security checks, vulnerability questions, delayed replies and out-of-office messages, while the actual issue remains unresolved days after I first raised it. The effect is that basic questions are repeatedly dodged rather than answered. Even after I submitted a manual reading, it was not reflected promptly and was instead passed for review, causing yet more delay on top of the delays they caused to begin with.
This is not about a one-off billing difference. It is about a supplier that appears unable to manage accurate billing, communicate properly, or take ownership of basic service failures. Deeply frustrating and completely unacceptable.
