Brilliant help with queries

Black Sheep have been brilliant at sorting out the question of VAT in respect of the bills for our charity and also in taking forward the possibility of fitting a smart meter. Much easier than going through the actual provider. Very quick response

What a breath of fresh air

What a breath of fresh air! Whenever I have a query or problem I never go direct to my energy supplier (British Gas Lite) I come straight to Customer Services at Black Sheep and they do all the hard work for me; they even chase the company if they don't get back within a certain time. Also, when you call Customer Service you don't get pushed from pillar to post, the person who greets you on the telephone deals with your query - again, what a breath of fresh air. I have been dealing with a very professional and courtesy lady called Malika Boostani and every time I contact her she is straight onto it and doesn't stop until the issue is resolved. My work colleague was looking to swap suppliers and I did not hesitate to recommend BSU. Well done guys, I won't be going anywhere for a long time.

Never use this company

I would give minus 10 stars if possible. They are rude, arrogant, pushy and condescending. They demand information re who you are, your role in the office, your level of responsibility and say they 'need' you to sign their permission form! When asked not to ring again they say they definitely will ring again. If they were the only energy broker in existence we would never use them. I find it hard to believe that there are still companies who haven't moved on from these very outdated attitudes. In the last 20 years most companies have moved to a model of customer service which involves politeness and good manners. The staff at this company have no concept of even the most basic manners and I can only assume that rudeness is part of their training.

Definitely would recommend

Definitely would recommend! Zoe has been fantastic in her promptness and also helping me find the best price. After I told her I have some cheaper prices elsewhere she got an even better deal than what was previously discussed.
