    Current Eon Next and EDF customer, ex Zog and Symbio. Don't think dual fuel saves money and don't like smart meters. Chronologically Gifted. If I offend let me know by private message, but I’ll continue to express my opinions nonetheless.

    The left hand doesn't talk to the right hand...
    Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player. I DON'T work for or on behalf of EON.Next, but am willing to try and help if I can. Not on mains gas, mobile network or mains drainage. House heated almost entirely by baby dragons.

    Update - I've now been switched over to another supplier as per previous post so this is just an update after a month away from EON. They still continue to email, post and only just today, phone about making an appointment to get my meters changed. The guy who rang today kicked off with the line "if we don't change your meters they could soon stop working" ummm they have never worked.

    My new supplier has now booked in a meter change which took one phone call.

    @zappedtoe Anasa here 👋 It's not great to hear that you did not have the best customer service. There does seem to be a lot of confusion with accessing your bills and energy usage. I think the mix up came with wanting to know your usage before EON Next, those bills are on a different system so we don't have access to them on the system but we're able to get access to them for you, your data is not lost its just not on the system that EON Next use which should have been explained to you.

    We're sorry to see you go but do understand that you have to do what's best for you so thank you for your feedback. I hope that you stick around on the forum as we offer lots of help and advice for all members not just our customers 😊

    Very kind words but you seem to have edited my last post somewhat ???

    @zappedtoe wrote about issues with their smets1 meter. Your reply seems to be referring to a rather different matter. Obviously you cannot compromise a customer’s data, but would you care to explain in more detail about data being on the system but not on the system that E.On Next use? Those of us volunteers here will not understand quite what you mean, and some more detailed explanation would be helpful.

    @meldrewreborn @zappedtoe mentioned on an updated post that they had now left but he asked for copies of all his bills but he was told that they no longer had them on the system as he is no longer a customer, so I mentioned that this was likely down to the fact that some of those bills could have been whilst he was with EON energy and if that is the case at EON next we can't always see all that information at the time due to different systems but the information can be located and perhaps should have been explained better. I think from the post we can all see that the customer journey was not the best and there seems to be a lot of things that could have been improved on and all in all a better explanation should have been given so wanted to acknowledge that.

    I hope this helps clear things up 😊

    @zappedtoe We do moderate posts from time to time to make sure we keep this forum a happy friendly space and watch the language being used but at the same time keeping things as real as they should so members can continue to highlight the positives as well as the negatives and we're always open to feedback to make those all important changes. We've not always got things right for our customers and we're working hard to improve this so we really do appreciate that fact that you came on to let us know what went wrong and what we need to improve on 😊

    OK it makes sense now - I’ve always thought that locking a former customer out of their online account, thus denying access to past bills was a most unhelpful policy (adopted by nearly all suppliers I think) particularly when paper based bills are no longer sent.
    Are customers warned of this ?
