Residential meter wrongly classified as business meter

[mmmwus]

Hi, 

I tried a lengthy time to get the business meter to be corrected to a residential meter. I called many times, AGL created a new electricity account for me. Unfortunately, it is again business plan is set up. 

I was being told in several calls that AGL will fix the problem and have the correct residential rate for me. However, it has been months, and the new electricity account created is still on business meter. 

could anyone help?

Hi mmmwus, We apologize for the poor experience. If the meter at a site is classified as business we can initiate a request with the distributor to reclassify as Residential with sufficient documentation. I will send you a private message shortly to discuss further. Cheers, Deepesh

Hi Deepesh,

just to give you a brief background, I switched back to AGlL, and have provided the relevant document for several times. Agl person on the call saying all data have updated and will be fixed. 

however, I got a new account with business meter again. While with old electricity account which has cancelled ( which changed to residential)

I am not sure what’s going on. Could you please fix it for me. As I have back and forth providing the documents, calls made, messages made , communications done. And the meter is wrong again.

Hi how did you go with this having same issue been told 20 days to fix but I’m thinking it will be much harder then that thinking I might get the ombudsman involved and get them to ensure it doesn’t take months to fix

Hi just wondering how you got on ? Didn’t get solved having same issue and wondering if I should just escalate it now instead of waiting months for it to be rectified

Hi no not solved 

I’ve actually now changed providers 

someone from energy Australia called me yesterday and they have better rates than agl 

so fingers crossed I won’t have the same issue

energy Australia happened to call me out of the blue, they offered better rates so I signed up
