Sent me a DocuSign permission letter without even asking me about it. How rude. Will definitely not be using them

This company continually calls and pretends to be catching up with "Simon", this is a complete lie and is a poor way to conduct business.

Terrible after sales service. No one returns calls. Do not recommend.
We have been on their call list for a while and they occasionally call, but we have not had a relationship with them. Today one of their sales representatives called my personal mobile and without introducing who they were, what they wanted, or how they knew me said "can you put me through to Gabi." Given this was my personal phone (and I am not Gabi) I acted quite surprised and asked who they were and what they wanted. Her reply was to persistently ask for my name stating "I have asked you several times for your name now", as if I had called them or wanted something from them, which was utterly bizarre. I explained that unless she told me what they wanted to speak to me about, how they 'knew' me or what they wanted then I wasn't going to be disclosing my name, business name, or anyone else's phone number. At this point, she became aggressive and exceptionally patronizing. I found the whole exchange utterly bizarre but if this is their level of customer service, I suggest everyone avoids them.
Won't stop calling
Very impressed with this company, especially Jack Elvin. It's rare these days to find someone who is so ethical, friendly, but professional AND who really knows his stuff! Will definitely use Black Sheep again when any of our commercial contracts are nearing their end dates.
Awful, pushy, arrogant sales people, demanding personal mobile numbers, demanding to speak to someone even though they was told they was out of the office several times! Awful company
They were professional throughout the process and very patient as well given that I never seemed to have the right paperwork to hand at the right time when they phoned! I want to give a particular mention to our new account manager Ryan Edwards who was brilliant throughout and on the off chance that some of the up on highs at Blacksheep read this review, I do really think you absolutely have to incorporate the line "Welcome to the flock" when landing any new acount!
I was recommended to get a quote from Black Sheep. Since contacting them, the sales tactics did not set right with me... very high pressure, argumentative, pushy... From the get go, I was uneasy about working with this company due to their pushy tactics... I don't want to be pressured, and I want my decisions respected, regardless of how the salesman feels about my decision... the last call was so antagonistic I simply ended up hanging up. Then he called back, and I literally had to tell him to F off and not call me again, just to get a bit of peace. Not a company I'd recommend. Really ticked me off.
Excellent service
They have been very efficient and dealt with everything promptly with minimum fuss
Great staff . You can can depend on.
No one ever rings me can never get through I can’t remember last time I spoke to someone and you wanna review
On renewing my accounts everything has gone really smooth thank you
Alicia called me this morning, and as well as being utterly charming she was professional and has answered my emails promptly and efficiently. Thank you Alicia!
Very slow in arrangements with the 5 contracts for electric and still waiting 7 weeks later
Good contact from Black Sheep
The approach of the staff was very brisk, not allowing much time for thought and reflection. The resulting quotes were solid, and one offer which we rejected on the grounds of poor reviews of that company was accepted without challenge. So far so good.
I am retailer great service 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Very helpful dealing with British gas
They were very professional in there approach, and keeping in touch to let me know how things were progressing.
We were given a number of price and contract length alternatives, alongside their suggested option. There was no pressure to accept their option. Once we had decided, the process was all dealt with on our behalf, with no fuss. Helpful and understanding guidance.
