Fast Connect was excellent in terms of… easy connection - but don't choose AGL

Fast Connect was excellent in terms of activating the requests simultaneously for both electricity and gas in our new home. HOWEVER, AGL were absolutely useless! 1 day after requesting connection I got a text to say they were connected, on arrival at the property found out that they hadn't contacted SA Power to have the padlock removed from the main. Rang they told me that they had contacted SA Power - they didn't!!! Took 2 days to be able to use the electricity. DO NOT CHOOSE AGL!

Hi Brittany, Sorry if you missed our two communications to you. The first was an email and SMS receipt of your requests. The email included full details so you could check all was accurate.This was sent within minutes of receiving your online request. Confirmation that all had been processed through to and accepted by Energy Australia was also sent approx 5 minutes later. If you would like copies of these please advise and I will send them to you. Regards Jon

The issue I'm having with them is not…

The issue I'm having with them is not their company itself, they redirected things relatively well, I just came into said property loaded with removalists who did a terrible job, really, but the company that I direct through them has been difficult to manage in one side, and that's water. I don't exactly know what's happening off of that, because it seems really high charge in one end and then it drops relative to electricity usage, I'd call that a property issue really, I might have to organize that but I'm weary of bond value at this point, I would like to contact whatever covers for that but I'm still in between categories with that one.

Either way, it's been functional from the service they provided, they just have to really get more invested in all of Australia regardless into customer support and care, because they aren't very adept into having really strong information for you or value for what you ask services for, but there's a lot of bureaucracy involved with rather difficult coverage to manage into it, so you stay stuck often. From their end, I just feel they should have contacted me more often and asked better identification through mobile by itself, that would probably have been better value, because by customer support or even regular life that proves every day difficult, getting to pull back services you're asking for that supposedly do it for you.

Connect was 5 stars

Connect was 5 stars, was a shame you were unable to assist disconnect of my gas and power due to provider (click energy) not being part of tour selection criteria.

Hi Allan. Thanks for the review. You are correct in that we do not have arrangements with some smaller second/third tier energy companies and mainly deal with the tier ones. Hope we can help you again in future. Regards Jon

I would not recommend them and would NEVER use them again - it was much more difficult than if I had just done it myself in the first place - ended up having services not commected, the ones that were connected had us on the most expensive plans. Spent days on the phone having to undo all the damage they had done and start again. TERRIBLE

Hi Sean,

Thank you for the review. The issue was you requested a connection at your new address, but did not request any account closure at, or provide your old address. I will email you a copy of your online application showing exactly this.

Thanks

Bill Shock

Got my first bill from AGL after using Fast Connect and did not have 1 discount attached to my account. 1 phone call to AGL and got 25% pay on time discount. Got screwed for over $200. Will never use again.

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the review. Fast Connect do not provide a plan comparison or discount service. We offer a move in/move out service only. You cannot do an apples for apples comparison of plans until you have moved in and have billing/meter information from which to compare. Fast Connect importantly provide plans with no lock in period or exit fees attached so once you have billing and meter data you can shop for the best deal at your new address. There is consumer advice published by the Australian Energy Regulator supportive of this position. Thanks - Jon

Didn't work at all for Telstra…

Didn't work at all for Telstra connection, Telstra hadn't even been contacted. Note your response below Jon is complete nonsense.

Below is a copy-paste of the e-mail I received from Fast Connect on Jul 16, clearly stating that Telstra, internet & Foxtel was to be connected. Of course there was also the detailed phone call I had from your representative confirming the exact date and time to be available, that you believe I what, imagined?

Admit the fault of your company instead of falsely trying to deny it. That way you might actually improve your business.

Thank you for using Fast Connect.

Hi again De,

We apologise for the misunderstanding at our end. After looking into the case further we can now see there was in fact a technical issue when processing your order.

We appreciate the frustration this has caused and are keen to chat to you about the issue further. If you’d like to get in contact please call us on 1300 661 464. Our Telstra Manager can discuss the matter further.

Kind regards,
Fast Connect

Struggled with complexity

Reality for us was as soon as our transfer/relocation of services went off the standard and simple path, it was all too hard for Fast Connect staff. Ended up doing it myself.

And interestingly, when I spoke to Telstra direct they had no idea who Fast Connect was. It came up as just another, but odd, shop front in the system and this was confusing. Brand issue for Fast Connect with one of your major stakeholders.

Not recommended unless the service required is very very simple.

Hi Roger, Thanks for the review. I have checked your Fast Connect record which shows your electricity & gas connections were completed exactly as requested. There were delays in your Telstra/Foxtel transfer between your old and new address. These were definitely Telstra system issues around migrating your account from an old legacy system to their current Seibel system. Unfortunately these issues can arise from time to time and are frustrating for all parties. FYI Fast Connect has been a Telstra dealer since 2001. I apologise if you felt Fast Connect could have done more to help resolve quicker. Regards Jon
