Great help in a time of need.

published

I just wanted to say it is soo good to see a company like Locality Planning Energy taking a proactive approach to the unprecedented situation we are in at the moment with the virus. Making sure people will not be cut off is a great weight off people's minds who are really struggling and also no late fees will be a great help too. Well done thinking of the average Australia during this difficult time.

LPE showing compassion and sensitivity in these trying times.

published

Congratulations to LPE on their informative letter to customers, outlining changes to power payments should they be required, due to the uncertain times we are living in.

The company has always been most approachable and quick to process any changes to personal information details etc when requested.

We look forward to continuing to receive the quality service that LPE has given us from the beginning. Also, we wish that all LPE staff stay healthy and safe whilst continuing to deliver excellent service, thank you.

Moving from Far North Qld, we had to change provider & also had a choice which don’t get in the Far North. We were told about you & right from first conversation was very impressed. Appreciate the reduction during this sad time of COVID -19. Hope all staff can stay safe &well.

Exemplary managed company with a caring attitude

published

We switched 90 % of our owners accounts to LPE last year and they've just informed me they have reduced their electricity rates to help people cope with their bills during the current Covid-19 crisis. What a commendable corporate and humanitarian attitude. If more companies took this approach we’d be a stronger nation. I will make additional efforts to recommend LPE to friends.

Great service

published

I was sceptical about a service running electricity for my whole building but it has worked out cheaper. Also in light of losing my job due to COVID19 they organised for my bill to be paid by a government help service. Ten out of ten.

Very much appreciated the reduction in the usage rates during this time of COVID-19. You didn't have to but you have and it is a very kind act to offer the community.

Exceptional Service from Damien and Team

I have been with Locality for over 3 years now and never recall a time or a situation where I was dissatisfied with their service. They have always resolved my queries promptly (not that I had many).

Please I changed to LPE

published

We changed to LPE as they are a local Sunshine Coast Company. There is no overseas call people, its your local people that look after you. My work have also changed to LPE. Nothing is to big or to small, no question or query to painful. They are always there to help and look after you - the Customer. And what is most important we support our local company.

Disgusting Energy provider

Salesperson was forceful and dishonest.

published

Declined switching several times but they wouldn’t leave me alone. Kept coming into my work even after asking them to stop. Gave in on 5th contact. Was explicitly told my daily supply charge would be cheaper (as I use barely any electricity anyway, 90% of my bills are just the daily supply charge) - this was untrue, just checked the bill and I’m paying an extra 12c per day! Cannot get into contact with them as I work during their opening hours (maybe have a weekend or after hours phone line?). Asked to be billed monthly like my old, much better company, but still receiving quarterly. The two young girls who harassed and lied to me have left a very sour taste in my mouth. Switched back to AGL today, good riddance.

Terrible service

published

Poor communication - we did not receive a notification that we should have when we signed up. A few days later when I still hadn't received anything, I called them to be told that the welcome pack should have been sent to me but hadn't for some reason.
Then when I submitted a move out form, still no communication. Turns out that they never received it even though I had definitely submitted it. So now we will continue to be charged until somebody goes out to the property to read the meter, including daily charges beyond the date we required the service.
This company is obviously either really good or really bad with their customer service. Unfortunately we received the really bad end of the deal.

Invoices are misleading, GST is not displayed right

GST is displayed at 20% instead of 10%,
1st invoice was displayed correctly and the following 2 have changed.
Staff say if you add it up manually its correct.

What they are doing is misleading.

Excellent professional skills of staff (Tia and Alex).

published

I'd like to compliment two (2) of your employees (Tia and Alex) for the excellent service, professional manners they showed recently. Their impeccable and exceptional psychological skills helped to sort my concerns about new service, which is going to be installed in our area soon. I had plenty of questions and a lot of worries... Their patience and professionalism exceeded my expectations, calm me down. Their way of interaction helped me to change my mind and take the company's offer. I hope the new service will not disappoint me and will be on the same level as your staff's skills (Tia and Alex). Thank you.

Poor experience with saleswoman.

published

I may have considered this as an option. Even though I am happy with my current supplier for my business. I support local businesses whenever possible. But, the experience with the sales woman today has put me off totally! Her approach was very unprofessional and quite rude.
Maybe a good idea to have more training for your sales reps.

My Body Corporate is considering signing with LPE for electricity from solar panels they will install on our roof. I'm finding it hard to speak to anyone who has this system installed and before we go ahead I'd like to have feedback on whether people are happy with this system.

The problem is what the salesman is not telling you. They give kickbacks to building managers. This comes from overcharges to tenants.
