Sumo is a great, cost-effective supplier

If you are looking for an excellent priced, Australian owned electricity supplier, look no further. Sumo does a superb job.

They were quick to set up, organised over the phone, and while I experienced one power outage, the whole block was out during a bush-fire. Not Sumo's problem, and the grid people got it up and running very quickly anyway.

Was just hoping for a price comparison review online and get some information, ended up getting hounded by phone calls. Got called 7 times in less that 24 hours trying to get me to sign up.

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE BY ZACH

Zach helped support us as we’ve lost a lot of income from covid19 - by waiving the late fees and letting us balancing our accounts both electricity and gas - they’ve always been good owning their mistakes and playing a fair and straight bat. I’ll be calling them in future to arrange my power needs as this and many other experiences have really helped us feel valued and trusted and

J Barryasked

Energy

I agreed to sign up with Sumo yesterday for our power bill, now very concerned with some of the comments on this page - the discount is amazing. Will I be advised of an increase before it happens? How long is this discount offer available for? Do I have a cooling off period to satisfy myself if it is worth changing over to Sumo or not.

Sumo
Sumo Customer ServiceSumo

Hi there, thank you for getting in contact. Our discounts are locked in for 12 months and in regards to the rate increases, it is our practice that we advise as much advance notice for an increase, however, we always act in accordance with 46(4) of the Energy Retail Code and provide as soon as practicable or by no later than a customers next bill. You are entitled to a 10 business day cooling off period the day from when you receive your Welcome Pack. Please give us a call on 13 88 60 or send us an email to [email protected] and we would be happy to answer any further questions you may have. Kind regards, Stephanie @ Sumo

I've waited over a month to be connect to the NBN and after weeks of calling, during which they constantly told me it was the NBN being behind schedule due to Christmas, they finally told me that they had infact forgot to request proof of residency. Now I've had the NBN technician connect the property and sumo say I am connected yet I'm not. They haven't given me any technical information to input onto my modem and their technical support team which is supposedly open from 10am till 4pm on Saturdays does not answer any calls? So I'm after any technical data to put in to my modem to get connected

Don’t know if this will help, but if you’re running windows (any version) if you click on the signal icon at bottom right of screen, then go to properties from the box that opens up, you should be able to see the isp details displayed there. Hope this works for you.
