    Good Points: Easy online billing, easy to switch.

    Bad Points: The 'hasslin'g at my front door when I left to try and get my custom back.

    General comments: Both me and my sister were with Scottish power we live within minutes of each other and have the same style house. She moved to Scottish power six months before me and they have offered to cap her payment for two years while my direct debit increased to twice the amount? When I asked for an explanation they couldn't give me one so I switched to Atlantic and my payments have halved. I have just had a visit from a guy from Scottish power who tried to get me to change back and he would cap my payment. I am steaming. Asked why he waited till I had moved and he couldn't answer. I'm glad I moved!

    Have had good service from Scottish Power through Sainsbury's energy. Capped deal was great - expensive now it has ended. Staff helpful and friendly.

    Prior being messed about with previous supplier I had a smooth crossing to Scottish Power as well as receiving 60 pounds cashback for swapping.

    I was attracted to Scottish Power as they seemed to be one of the cheapest suppliers on the market, i do like the one bill and one payment as British Gas my previous supplier would not permit this

    I am in receipt of my final bill in the sum of £788.75 from Scottish Power. It therefore seems strange that I am not one payment behind on any of my payments, or indeed any other bills through other companies. I queried the matter 3 times through the e-contact centre, and all 3 replies left me extremely dissatisfied. I actually felt insulted by comments like - "This is your fault" and "You should have paid more." When setting up my account late in 2004, I explained very clearly that I ...

    Scottish Powers Gas prices started off reasonable, but every quarter my bills get more and more expensive. I have a 3 bed detached house, and my winter bill for November to February was nearly £400. Thinking my next bill would be cheaper, I have just received it this week to find it is £364 for February to May. Am I paying for my neighbour's as well? I have had 3 price increase letters in 1 year. It's ridiculous.

    We have a three bedroom home, and we decided to move to Scottish Power (Duel power) as they were the cheapest. It was a very bad move, as on transfer they first agreed monthly Direct Debit payments of £58.00 per month, and 3 weeks went by, and we got a £7,589.43 bill. Scottish Power blamed Npower (our original supplier). The readings were out, and they did not seem to want to help at all!! WE left the company after a long fight (NOT wanted on our part). I would never return to Sc ...

    In February I had a new meter fitted because the old one was leaking gas. In May I changed my supplier to NPower (no better!) This was when I got my final statement from Scottish Power. To my horror I owed them a substantial amount of money. I checked my meter to find that the serial numbers did not match (they still had the old one), and the readings were out by miles. I spoke to them, and they told me to sort it with NPower. so I did. Next came the bailiffs letters. I spoke to both NPowe ...

    I've been with Scottish Power for about four years and have noticed that prices seem to keep rising more and more, until recently I got a bill for £498 quid out of the blue for my gas and electricity. When I phoned them they told me that I haven't paid any gas for a year, and that I had put myself into a "debt situation". I told them I had paid all of my quarterly bills without fail. I spent hours on the phone to them at enormous expense while they investigated, and then a stuffy woman tol ...

    When I moved house in June, 2005 I gave Scottish Power my meter readings and arranged for the existing direct debits to stay in place.As soon as I was in the new house I gave Scottish Power the meter readings and they again confirmed that the direct debits would simply carry on. But oh no! First they took an amount of money as a final payment for the old house. Then after a lot of phone calls they set up new direct debits for the new house. But then two of their 'originators' cancelled ever ...

    I will not use them again. They set a collection agancy onto us, even though they had confirmed they had received the payment, and this is still ongoing.

    Scottish Power sent me a bill out of the blue, claiming I owed over £800. Why? Because they have had my meter readings mixed up for years. This is despite having my meter read by Scottish Power personnel every quarter, and sending in correct figures when I received estimated bills. I was basically told that as the meter readings did not match up with what they had on their computer, the meter readings were disregarded. I would argue that this is their own fault, as I have done everyth ...

    I changed with from Scottish Hydro to Scottish Power because of their slightly lower prices with combined gas and electricity. Well, you pay for what you get! Do not go with this company under any circumstances! They screwed me around for over a year with over billing and bad account information. It was hellish, and I've spent hours on the phone being shunted around from dept to dept. And now, to top it off, months after finally disentangling myself from them and going back to Scottish ...

    In my experience I can only compare Scottish Power to Dick Turpin... at least he had the sense to wear a mask when he was robbing people!....and as for writing to their MD.. you'd be better off writing to Willie Wonka!

    Scottish Power do not seem able to send a correct bill out, make several errors and take 5 attempts at billing at the correct rate. They even sent a reminder before the initial bill!!! A joke!

    Scottish Power - I received my latest gas and electricity statement from Scottish Power and was alarmed to notice an increase on my consumption, I contacted them and was not happy with the initial customer service agent response, and asked to speak to a manager. I was placed on hold, for only a minute, then placed through to a nice gentleman who set about apologising for the catch up bill. He explained that all future invoices for all customers would be calculated more accurately as they have in ...

    I signed up with Scottish Power for both my gas and electricity after visiting a website which searched for the cheapest provider. AFTER signing up, Scottish Power told me the figures they had provided on the website weren't valid as they hadn't had my exact meter readings and they promptly charged me more than the companies I had just left. They basically lie to get you in and then they assume you don't want the hassle of leaving them...we have. Interestingly they ended up owing us money when w ...

    Avoid Scottish Power like the plague, they are beyond useless, they cantt get my address right so I get no bills just phone calls asking for payment. Complaints are ignored for over a month. Any money I did save with them has gone in phone calls trying to correct the almighty mess they have made with our account.

    Scottish Power transferred my gas account from another supplier without my consent. When questioned, they released details of other customers to me in breach of the data protection act. Trying to make a complaint involves spending considerable periods of time listening to their on-hold music - 34 minutes as I write and still unable to speak to a manager.
