Action everything very quickly

Action everything very quickly.
I haven't started with my new provider yet but I have been given a better deal with my same provider than they were able to give me. Looking forward to seeing that translated into real terms, very soon.

As a new customer to Smarter Business

As a new customer to Smarter Business, My client bought an empty unit, and after 6 weeks of the investigation, we found out that the MPAN number was registered incorrectly under the plot 290A as a residential unit and trying get a metre fitted . I was thrown from post to pillar between Scottish Power and UK Power, one blaming the other, whilst the client was screaming on the other end. Eventually, Smarter Business was recommended to me, and I made contact with Justin Breetzke and within 10 days, everything was sorted. The metre installed is booked and the contract is signed. I am very impressed by the service level I have received and the knowledge and advice that Justin Breetzke offered, and made it very simple for me to deal with them.

It’s a mine field out there with energy providers. I’m pleased with the help I’ve received from Candice who manages to sort any issues. Candice has been very supportive to date and I hope going forward the process of changing energy provider will continue to be a smooth process.

I'm so happy to end the contract

AVOID!!!
My experience is depressingly consistent with Fiona, Oliver and Claire review.
We paid for lifts that were never collected. Like Oliver, I was accused of lieing and like Fiona they constantly argued inconsistent points

Smarter Business didn't even have the decency to address Claire's concerns.
During the year long contract I was regularly treated dishonestly and disrespectfully by call handlers.

Buried deep in the terms and conditions Smarter Businesses hide a clause that customers has to request and pay for their new bins keys.
Now have a reputedly waste management contractor. They were amazed by this weasel clause because they supplied keys as standard with the bins.

Like Nigel, things became unpleasant when we gave notice to end our contract.
Erroneous charges appeared on the final invoice. Again the obscure terms and conditions were trotted out.

And like Sam, my business was effected by having to consultly deal with people who's only motivation was to grind down the complainant.

Dear Garry

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review about your experience with Smarter Business for your waste management services. We are disheartened to hear that many elements of your journey were disappointing, to say the least.

As it may be too late to reconcile, I would like you to know that we are going to use your experience within our customer satisfaction process to ensure that we always strive to deliver customer service that meets all our customer’s expectations.

Missed collections can occur as a result of a number of factors, breakdown or unavailability of equipment or vehicle, inability to obtain labour, or any other cause beyond the company's reasonable control. Should this happen and the company is unable to perform the services on the scheduled day as a result of any of the reasons stated above, services will then be performed on the next available date and your billing will be adjusted accordingly to ensure that you receive all collections paid for.

We apologise that you feel you were treated dishonestly and disrespectfully and assure you that this will be further investigated as all our calls are recorded for quality and assurance purposes.

With a number of waste service providers you are provided the opportunity to decide if you require a lockable bin on site or not and upon request, this can be arranged in accordance with the processes and procedures defined by the waste service provider.

Together with the signed agreement, is our Terms and Conditions - which you were made aware of. For the sake of transparency, we have once again reverted to it.

If there is any way to earn your business in the future please do not hesitate to let me know. We value you as a customer and would like the opportunity to build a long lasting relationship.

Worst Customer Service EVER

I used "Smarter Business" for my waste solutions. The waste collection I pay for is only sometimes collected. The worst is their customer service. They will try to contact you via telephone as they never do as promised and are reluctant to answer emails, but when the do it can take 2-3 months to get a response.

I'd never use this company again even if it were free!

As a new customer to Smarter Business I…

As a new customer to Smarter Business I was unsure what service I would actually receive.
I received my energy bill from my supplier and thought instantly it was way too high for 6 weeks, so took a meter reading and emailed it to Smarter Business, they said they would look into it, within a couple of days I got a new revised bill for about half of original.
Just wish I had been with them when I was with Scottish power as I think they have ripped me off over a number of years.

I could not be happier with the service I have received from this company. I was sceptical at first, as everyone is who runs a business, but my goodness are these guys the exception to the rule. They are totally trustworthy and true to their word. I would recommend them to anyone. Exceptional service. A ****

Very helpful over an ongoing issue with npower. I tried for months to sort this out myself- their new billing system is incapable of recognising that engineering type businesses have more that one meter, so I cannot send my meter readings via my online account. A complaint then led to my bills being put on hold even though I wanted to pay them!
My contact was very helpful and took over dealing with npower and hopefully I will finally get an up to date bill in the next 7 days.

Outrageous pricing and service!

Smarter Business has been pressuring me for months about signing up for a renewal, with all quotes significantly higher than my existing tariffs. After 30 mins online found another quote 25% cheaper than their best quote! Weeks ago, I informed my SB account manager I was not going to renew contract at the end of period and found out today they have not informed the current supplier. Therefore, the switch away cannot go ahead on the date originally planned. I have now had to serve notice on the supplier personally and am now liable for out of contract charges during the notice period whereby the standing charge is approx 400% more and unit costs will be approx 200% more than normal. Just what a small business needs in the COVID-19 business environment!. In my signed Letters of Authority it explicitly states that: "this authority also gives permission .... to serve notice on our behalf to existing contracts" and "Issue termination notice with regard to existing/new contracts on my behalf". Response from the account manager today seems to indicate that once they realise there's not going to be ongoing revenue, their service stops, so cancel any contracts yourself!. So much for Smarter Business managing my account - nothing smart about this. Can't wait to get away! Lesson: Check EVERYTHING yourself!

Dear Nigel

We are sorry to hear that your experience with Smarter Business was less than satisfactory.

At Smarter Business we endeavor to provide all our clients with world-class service, therefore, your account has been reviewed to ascertain the level of service that was provided to you.

On 17 July 2020, you confirmed that you had already signed contracts for the business directly for one year and that your current supplier would shortly receive notice that the supply is moving elsewhere.

The verbal Letter of Authority that we hold on your account has expired as it was done in 2017. We would have required an updated Letter of Authority from you to have assisted with the termination notice.

With regard to the quotation offers, we make every effort to ensure that the rates we offer are competitive. We do apologise for falling short of your expectations.

Please do not hesitate to contact our dedicated Customer Service department at customer.services@smarterbusiness.co.uk or 01444 220060 should you require any further information.

Best wishes

Never used this kind of thing before…

Never used this kind of thing before and to be honest I was quite sceptical and a little nervous. Anyway Lee-Anne was lovely, she wasa pleasure to talk to and there was no pressure what so ever to do something that wasn’t suitable. Lee listened to our needs as a charity and pushed on when suppliers said no. Lee made things a lot easier and took away a lot of stress for myself and brought a smile when we chatted during a hard period for everyone whilst dealing with COVID19. Great job Lee and thank you again from me 5 Stars plus!

Good Service

Our project was managed by Justin. He was very keen and knowledgeable and he dealt with the procurement in a timely manner.
