Shell Energy are an absolute disgrace. They just respond with robotic responses for a complaint and never the same person. Took a month for a reply and after two months still getting robotic responses to my complaint. Why cant they ring me or provide a contact number to actually speak to someone.read more

Completely dysfunctional customer phone system, it doesn’t matter whether you dial in yourself and carefully follow the menus and enter all your details perfectly, you’ll end up in the wrong place and be transferred multiple times before giving up after 30 wasted minutes. One Customer Services Rep I spoke to sounded utterly defeated saying it’s been a difficult place to work the last few months. I’m attempting to cancel my switch to Shell Energy because of this, currently queue number 100 in the online chat, wish me luck…read more
Energy suppliers can claim to offer environmentally-friendly green tariffs by paying as little as 93p per customer per year to renewable power plants, it has emerged.
Companies which supply electricity to Britons can buy green energy certificates cheaply from wind farms and hydroelectric power stations.
They then have the right to call their tariffs ‘renewable’, even if the power they’re supplying might come from ‘dirty’ fuel such as wood pellets and other non-renewable sources.read more

After being with shellenergy for 2 years, everything seemed fine. Until I went to switch. All of a sudden I owed them £700, even though i provided readings every 3 months. Fair enough, they have obviously ignored my meter readings to get me into debt with them, so that when it comes to switching I can’t. Underhand tactics but I decided to set up a payment plan.read more
