Hi @Sankar Balakrishnan - Welcome to OVO and to our online community here.

 

Sounds like you’ve recently moved in to a home we already supply. In which case we’d recommend checking out the advice given in our guide below:
 

 

If you’ve been in touch with the Support Team, or set-up an account online, we’d expect you to receive a ‘Welcome Pack’ within 5 working days so I’m sorry to hear things haven’t been so smooth in your case.

 

As you mention some issues with the account billing, I’m wondering whether you’ve checked the meter readings we’ve used on the opening statement match those you took from your meters when you first moved in? If there’s any issues with these readings this could explain the unexpected charges, so it’s important to get in touch with our Support Team to double-check things on an account-specific level. Have you tried getting in touch with the team via our webchat? You can find a link to this here.

Thank you for response!. I tried all - so far they said, they will pull up my meter reading automatically, they never asked me. And they are saying still some technical issues only. I don’t know how come 75 days, still they are saying issues. Please help!

Sorry for the confusion, @Sankar Balakrishnan.

 

Sounds like there could be some technical issues getting things setup. We’re fairly limited in terms of getting things resolved here without full visibility of the account in question. As you mention already contacting the Support Team without a clear explanation as to what’s causing the delay, I’ve arranged for us to collect some account details via a Private Message here. You can access and respond to this PM by heading to the top right-hand corner of any forum page.

 

I hope we can help shed some light on things.

Hi @Jess_OVO 

 

I am trying to piggyback on top of that thread as it seems you are able to help and I have the exact same story:

 

  • A new property I have purchased
  • From some reason no-one in OVO is able to register an account on that property. All that I get is “we are getting ana error on the system for that property”
  • It seems that there was an issue closing the previous tenant account - however this is now closed. 
  • The previous tenant was kind enough to come over and we set on the phone all morning. Everyone confirmed his account is closed and we should be able to register a new account. By that I mean
    • Collections
    • Customer service
    • Complaints/resolutions department 
  • yet …. no one is able to register an account

I see you offered some help above, can I pick that offer as well :-) ?

 

Many thanks

Greetings @lupubtl !

I’m sorry, but Jess is no longer active on the OVO Forum. As per my programming, I have redirected your query to @Emmanuelle_OVO .

Thanks for understanding!

Hi @lupubtl yep this sounds like the right situation to call in the help of the Forum_Support team. I’ll ask them to private message you. 

 

Thanks,
