I would never go near this company again! We brought a house in September 2023. British Gas in October sent us a huge bill. On the bill the charges where back dated until March 2022. I have sent in proof that we did not live or own the property until September 2023. They they tried to tell me that the previous owner was not paying their direct debits so the debt is now with us as the new home owners. With the previous owners permission I sent in to British Gas copies of their bank statements which showed the direct debits leaving their account. BG then tried to tell me that they where refunding the previous owners direct debits back to them each month (with no explanation as to why there where refunding the payments). The previous owners bank statements show differently. Two months this issue has been going on. I have been contacting them via email, phone online chat etc. Each time the advisor tells me that they have sorted the issue, thank you for my patience blah blah and yet here we are months later and nothing has changed. Since then BG have tried to put my monthly direct debits up so that the debt is cleared quicker. I really wouldn't advise using this company at all. Their customer service sucks. This morning I was offered a £5 credit to my account for my troubles. What an insult. Hours it has taken of my time so far not to mention the stress of dealing with the advisors.
