SGN Opiniões 

What SGN charge is outrageous! £850 for an hour and a half’s work!

We had our gas supply moved from the inside wall to the same wall but externally. No digging required, no reconnection.

How is the price justified?

Delay & Disappointment. I have achieved the promise of a "goodwill" payment from SGN for poor service re a dreadful phone receptionist & a booking for a survey in a Hampshire residence. This was nearly a month ago (late February/March 26). Despite SGN having my phone number (ends in ...607) they claimed they couldn't reach me for the payment card transaction. My phone was fully functioning at the time and was making/taking other calls. I emailed them to this effect & an SGN manager successfully called me on the number that was previously beyond them etc to offer a cheque payment by post. To date (late March 26), I have yet to receive it and have been told it will take a further 10-20 days. How on earth is anyone expected to deal with such a badly organised company? I have included details here for them to ID the case. No doubt they will ask for "further info" rather than just send the "flipping" cheque. I await the next step.

We had an emergency today and Tom - the engineer - came to help us on time.

Fantastic, professional service from start to finish. Tom was knowledgable, he explained everything clearly. He was polite, efficient and left everything tidy. We highly recommend Tom.

This company can’t be trusted. Their customer service team appear to listen but when it comes to a resolution they deny everything. We lost gas service for 2 weeks whilst we were away. They talk about 4 hour response times but it’s a lie because they make excuses about emergency jobs taking preference. Engineers turn up without notice. Managers call you and then deny what was said. Complaints are not properly investigated. Contractors are not properly managed by SGN and left to their own devices with the result that work is substandard. Managers call you on withheld numbers - best to record calls or ask them to put everything in writing.

I’m very disappointed with the level of customer service I’ve received from SGN. After their workers accidentally scratched my car while carrying out gas works on my street in early February, I reported the incident immediately and provided photographs as requested.
A manager later came to inspect the damage, but since then I haven’t received any updates or follow-up communication, despite sending reminders. It’s frustrating to be left without any response or resolution weeks after the issue was acknowledged.
I expected a company of this size to take responsibility and handle such matters promptly and professionally. Unfortunately, my experience has been quite the opposite, and I hope SGN improves the way they deal with customer complaints in the future.

Asked for a quote using their online system to move a gas meter and pipe to the other side of the wall no more than 12 inches. got a price of 717.00. i contact their customer services they suggest i get one of their estimate team out as could reduce the cost. they said to come out and take a look would be free. Just had the new price back at 1162.80. SGN are a CON

Thank you to Andrew Howison for his professionalism and communication today attending to a major issue at one of my rental properties in Mill Street, Kirkcaldy.

Andrew was excellent, he quickly fixed the problem and I couldn’t be happier with his service, efficiency and knowledge.

Also thanks to Robert Leitch for his input and knowledge helping me find a part required to finish off the job.

Both Andrew and Robert were awesome today. The gas meter box issue was a bit stressful until Andrew turned up and fixed everything!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

We need to convert our house from oil to gas and both Albert and Sam at SGN were brilliant in helping us understand the process and get all the works booked in.
We’re in a bit of a difficult situation and they were both so professional and kind throughout. They were just lovely and understanding, which made a stressful time much easier to deal with.
Really appreciate their help

Lovely team member Laura came to deliver us hot plates and fan heaters as our gas and heating has been turned off whilst SGN organise repairs. She was super friendly and informative about safe and proper use of the devices. Thanks Laura

Very poor after care in terms of restoring grounds they have opened up or even areas surrounding been waiting weeks for them to properly fix it all and they left water pipes they moved hanging off the side of my house and didn't reattach them to the wall. They also are now ignoring all contact attempts I make to there complaints team.

They caused a huge water leak in my field and then denied even being there!!

I had a positive experience with the company right from when we spoke with them till the gas issue was resolved. They kept us informed of when the engineer will come and the engineer that was sent was very nice, friendly and polite.

Horrendous company and customer care team. Over 4 months since they caused the damage to my property and they have still not fixed it! They continue to make things difficult and have shown zero interest in making things right. I continue to be out of pocket and I my damage can't be fixed until they do their part.

Can someone explain what being on SGN’s Priority Services Register actually means? From my experience it is a complete disadvantage!

My husband and I are both 81. I have multiple long term health issues and have just come out of a two week stay in hospital. Until a couple of hours ago we had been without central heating, cooking facilities or hot water since Friday morning (January 1st).

We were supplied with 2 fan heaters and an electric hot plate which helped somewhat however the house was still freezing and we have been unable to bath or shower.

We live in a small cul-de -sac and all of the houses were affected with everyone’s gas turned off.

Yesterday evening we were told that 1000 litres of water had been drained nearby and that we would be reconnected. All of our neighbours were reconnected, despite the pressure being lower than recommended, however when they got to us the pressure was too low. We were told that everyone would be switched off again and that someone would be around to see us the next morning (today). By mid morning we had heard from no-one but then discovered that we were the only ones in the cul de sac that had been left without gas and that everyone else had remained connected from the night before.

This morning having had no communication from SGN I managed to get a reply from their customer service telephone number. It was arranged that someone would call, however when the engineer arrived he had no knowledge of the history behind our situation and the multiple teams that had been involved. He again tested our pressure and said that our pressure was too low for him to be able to reconnect us so we were no further forward.

An hour or so later another engineer arrived with a large pump which resulted in our pressure rising enough to turn our boiler on but we still cannot light our Aga (our only source of cooking). Despite having asked for a manager to come to see us with an update of the situation this has not happened. We have never received a comprehensive explanation of what is going on or any idea of when we will be able to have all of our gas services restored.

I cannot believe that a company the size of SGN can operate in such a costly and inefficient way. Their Customer Service line, which I understand is meant to operate for 24 hours, closed at 5pm yesterday. There is no attempt to join the dots and for all calls regarding the same fault to be directed to one team and for customers to be updated by the same team. No wonder gas is so expensive!

As for the Priority Services Register, I think I might ask for our names to be removed as our neighbours received better service than we did.

The engineer was fine. However the work to lay a slightly wider plastic pipe to raise pressure left a trail of destruction in terms of smashing through not one but two underground waste pipes. Even worse, they didn't inform me of this even though I was always present and available. So we carried on as normal and water continued through the broken pipes, with us being unaware that it wasn't going any further than the hole in the ground. These pipes were out of order from before Christmas until some time beyond January (I hope) because I am told that the repairing subcontractor doesn't return to work until January 6th. We now face the disruption of the pipes having to be rebuilt by a subcontractor (paid for by SGN). On the positive side, the local team manager was sympathetic and a Connections Team lady on email was helpful.

My recommendation is to be very watchful when work is carried out by them. After my situation I feel I simply cannot trust them. My experience is that they may leave with you thinking everything is alright, even though it may not be.

The situation is ongoing.

Edit: Cappagh repaired the broken pipes and SGN increased my compensation, which I accepted, although still less than the damage and trouble caused. I just wanted to move on.

Engineer was out 30 minutes after calling in a smell of gas at home in the middle of the night. Polite friendly and professional. Confirmed what he was doing and what I need to do in morning - made the house safe for me and my kids to come back in. Clearly explained the completed paperwork.

Dangerous driver in SGN van with VRN: LB24 YSW at 20:51💀Harassing and tailgating me whilst I was doing the maximum legal limit of 40mph on the Leatherhead bypass. Undertook me, sped up, then crossed the roundabout in a left filter lane, only to tailgate the next driver for ¾-mile. Real credit to the company 💀

We had an issue with our heating / hot water so called British Gas who said they would get someone out from SGN. 25 minutes later an engineer arrived and established that there was an issue with the gas pressure coming into the building (its a conversion).

He checked our pressure and my two neighbours and due to the problem had to isolate the gas in the building. Result was no heating or hot water on a freezing cold day

Engineer reported the fault, explained that 2 managers would be out at 6pm to investigate further. They appeared with some other engineers and established the problem

They kept us all up to date and sorted the problem out fairly quickly - they worked until they could turn the gas back on into the building

A lot of bad reviews on here but I thought the service they provided and how quickly they resolved the problem was excellent

Well done SGN

We had an issue with low gas pressure on Friday and they had to replace the pipe to the property. All 4 guys that worked on the issue on Friday & Saturday were great! Just over 24 hours from being cut off to being reconnected.

I would like to thank SGN Engineer Harvey, who could not have been more helpful. Having been in contact with both the gas supplier and Gas Safe, both were obstructive and unsympathetic. However Harvey managed to give us a possible solution to a very badly positioned Gas Smart Meter. What a difference a polite, professional and friendly Engineer makes!
Thank You
