Review of the Scottish Power, Boiler Cover:

No Customer Service available !!!

When signing up to ScottishPower's boiler insurance, Scottish Power confirmed to me by email that I am insured. But when I wanted to claim, it turned out that my insurance account was not even set up. They lost my insurance sign-up. It took me approximately 10 emails to their Customer Service, but they constantly refused to assist me. Finally, I got offered a £100 compensation and they assured me: "We will take this on board and make sure that the relevant changes are made to ... Reviewed on: 8th September 2024

Shocking and dishonest.

Shocking and dishonest. Will use any excuse to rid themselves of a customer that has an older boiler and avoid the cost of contributing to a new one which is the cover I had for years. They only want to cover new boilers under warranty. So what's the point? Reviewed on: 14th March 2024

Shambles

Appalling service, easily the worst ever. Useless, incompetent, untrustworthy, poor documentation recording. From my experience they would have difficulty boiling a kettle. Multiple problems with them rectifying problems, plumbers unable to resolves issues. Had a fault which was eventually noted and recorded on receipt. Informed part would be ordered, two weeks later I called them and they had no knowledge of the issue, even thou was recorded on my copy of paper work. Was charge... Reviewed on: 4th December 2023

Left my 94 yo aunt with faulty boiler and blamed it on her! They're poor and not appropriate for elderly people, find someone else.

After initially diagnosing a change in gas pressure for a fault they finally agreed after a week that it was indeed a fault which they fixed but left the boiler with a broken timer. The engineer blames the 94 yo for it not working. We've had third party conduct regular checks and it is indeed faulty but they just argue with me over the phone so having it repaired by local engineer. Go with someone else, they're not competent.

Customer services hung up on me three times when cancelling policy

Appalling customer service. I have had a boiler service appt cancelled and moved.... then on the 2nd appt they called 45 minutes before the end of the 5-hr morning appt slot to say he was "off sick" and couldnt come out.... then on the 3rd appt it was a complete no-show, no calls, nothing. Phoned the main number to cancel poilcy and calls "dropped" when making the complaint. Really upset and angry as they've taken my money, cost me 2 half-days pay and now not bothering to pro...

Left without heating and hot water for many days

Took boiler cover from Scottish power. Contacted them when it broke this winter. Had one visit but the job wasn’t done properly and next day boiler didn’t work again. Called Scottish power again, new appointment was booked for next day. However, they cancelled the appointment without contacting us to explain the reasons for cancellation. When we contacted them again they told us that our boiler has got problems with isolation. We were very surprised as the boiler only 4-5 years ... Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Not refunding my money

I called them for emergency boiler repair with a contact number they provided for emergency repair. The lady took my insurance information and £99 as the excess payment. It was after taking my money that she told me there is no emergency repair available and I need to wait 3 days for the engineer. I requested to cancel it as I couldn’t wait that long in the coldest time of the year and I asked for refunding my money. She told me it will be refunded in 3 working days. I called th...

They screwed up our heating (twice). And won't fix.

Twice engineers from the subcontractor (jones assist) have come out to look at a minor problem. Twice they have left us in a worse situation (no heating once, an incorrectly wired controller the second time). Now they are refusing to fix. I didn't expect to be paying for a service that left me in a worst situation. Genuinely terrible. Avoid. Reviewed on: 27th October 2021
