Didn’t complete the switch to them but they still took 6 months of DD payments. Was told a refund would be with me in 10 business days but 14 days on no sign of it arriving. Can’t speak to anyone or get any response. Have asked the bank to …

Good service whilst a user , but as previously documented since switching to another user they do not respond to emails, the phone number there is never an operative . I was told originally my outstanding credit ( which is just under £100) …

The switch to Avro was very easy via U Switch. The tariff has been brilliant. Unlike the contracts I have had in recent years, I have not had to increase my direct debit at all this year showing how competitive and customer friendly they …

Just signed up for a second year with Avro. Their renewal price was the most competitive. Online account isn’t the most slick system out there, but it works and is easy to use. Easy to enter meter readings. Would be easier with an app, but …

Very poor customer service. No one answers the phone, ever – just an automated (US accented) voice message saying everyone is busy. Have balance owing since switching but can’t get any acknowledgement of this or my refund sorted. Then, …

Switch to Avro was simple, account set-up easy, and their prices are really good for low users like myself. Been with them for 7 months. Still haven’t received my first bill, weird but ok. Paying by DD £50 a month even though my annual …

Same issue as so many other clients. Fine for getting good tariffs, but when you want to do anything such as moving or closing or just querying an account their customer service is the worst I have ever come across. Avoid like the plague – …

Recently renewed with Avro after a good year. My account has been in a reasonable amount of credit for all of that time. So I thought I’d like some back. Couldn’t get them on the phone after trying for a week. Live chat is never available. …

One star is probably a little too high. Statements don’t get put on your online account. When they were put on, it turns out I have a credit balance of over £500. They have a customer services number, but it doesn’t matter when you call, …

Very slow, and difficult to get hold of. They had incorrect information on record even though they were charging money for the property I moved in to and it took ages to update because you’re either on hold for an hour or so to get through …

Avro refused my request to change supplier on the grounds that ‘my account was in arrears’. All accounts are in arrears since they are paid for in arrears. I made my scheduled payment without fail on time every month. Any amount outstanding …

They might offer one of the best pricing options but their customer service is dreadful. On average I’ve had to wait approximately 30 minutes on hold before I’ve been able to speak to an advisor. Even then agreed dates for work to be done …

DO NOT sign up for this company. Absolute Scam. We were fairly happy with their service until we had to close our account and get our credit back. Their customer care team has been ignoring us for months in order to avoid returning us our credit.

Great company, price and a smooth switch over. Never had any problems with supply. Would give 5 stars if they had an app to do your readings etc. That’s my 1 and only quibble. Would recommend to family and friends.

No problems so far. Changed to them as they had the best deal and no penalty for moving so I thought there is an incentive to keep prices reasonable. Only drawback is my smart meter is not compatible so I have to read the metre and log online. Worth it though to get a decent deal!

Moved to Avro last year after higher than expected bills with previous supplier. The transfer went ahead smoothly and without hitches. As an online account I get regular reminders to submit Meter readings which are simple to enter direct from my phone. All good so far and no unexpected extra costs.

Shame on them: they won’t allow a new customer to transfer to a new supplier, delaying 2 months to send a bill and asking for sensitive personal data AND banking details (what?!) to be sent via email (!) to some support centre that only works 9am-4pm weekdays. Incredible that a company like that should have a licence to operate.
