I've read a lot of negative reviews about Scottish Power on this site, this maybe one of the few good reviews! We moved to Scottish Power to escape the clutches of NPower. Npower charged us for power we hadn't used and messed up our bill when we did pay and so compared to NPower, Scottish Power are a dream! We were actually approached by a door-to-door salesman. I don't usually even bother opening the door to door-to-door salesmen but i'm glad I did. They made the swap over as easy as possible, any problems came from NPower's end. Since being with Scottish Power they have managed to reduce our bills, we are paying a lot less than we were ...  Read the complete review

I switched to a Scottish Power online tarriff 3 months ago after receiving a sales call from them. They asked what I paid for my current gas and electricity and when I told them the sales person told me they could supply for £30 a month less. As I thought it strange that they could work out so quickly how much electricity I used only by the monthly payments I was making, I asked what the catch was and was told that everything was above board and they were just cheaper. Reality - After just two payments of my D/Debit I was asked to enter my latest meter readings into my account online. Surprise surprise, I received an email stating my D/Debit payment would have ...  Read the complete review

I am appalled at the "selling" tactics of this company. I was pressured into signing up with them when I was cornered in a shop doorway as I waited for the rain to ease off, big, big mistake !! When I got home I read through the leaflet and saw that I could cancel the agreement within a 7 day cooling off period. I had signed on a Friday and on the following Tuesday I sent them an email simply saying "I hereby give notice that I wish to cancel my contract for the supply of Gas & Electricity, entered into with you on 04/07/09. Regards" I don't think I could have been any clearer, do you ? I had to work away for the next week and ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Scottish Power: Not the best, nor the worst (195 words)

We signed a contract with Scottish Power for a dual fuel switch over last year. At the time there was a move to lock into fixed price utilities and prices were due to rocket. I have to say that I haven't received bad service, but then I have never had the need to contact them! I manage my account online and have the opportunity to go online to log my meter readings to ensure I pay for what I use. I doubt for a minute they are the cheapest for my consumption, and I will compare other providers once my fixed period is up. Recently, we submitted our meter reading which indicated our direct debit would reduce by£15 per month. The following month ...  Read the complete review
