Sumo Arvostelua 

The account manager went out of her way to help

Electricity set up 12 days after requested date. Internet still not set up well over 3 weeks later... When I said I've had enough and am not waiting any longer for internet, they are charging me a cancellation fee for something that never even started.... Asked to speak to someone higher up about this and was told there is no one higher up. This company is fraudulent and have no care for customers what so ever

A very informative consultant answered all my questions.

excellent service , the consultant was efficient, helpful, understanding and knowledgeable of all products. I was very happy with my experience with your Sumo staff.

Customer service is as amazing and very helpful, they offered me great rates for electricity, gas and internet!
Would highly recommend this company.

Only downfall is they don’t have an app for user friendly knowledge about how your are tracking with your gas and electricity, but I do foresee that this will be something they can hopefully build on to become more than just great deals, but with user fri madly apps to help track your usage (if electrically metered).
That is my only reason for scoring it a 3 out of 5.

If they become a bit more tech savvy I would definitely recommend a 5/5 review.

bigggest thieves i have seen no respect treat u like rubbish over charge you have spent hours on the phone they hang up on you DONT GO TO THIS LYING MONEY GRABBING MONGRELS you will b sorry

Fast phone response, good intro to customer service, very helpful information to each of my queries. Customer service lady could not have been better! Very happy!

Keeping prices down
1st time ever I have received a credit on my electricity account fair enough I have received qld rebates before but never been in credit
Thank you SUMO 😊 🙏

The girl was very friendly, polite and made me feel at ease. Excellent customer service.

Sumo offered a reasonable (still way overpriced compared to 1st world countries) price. Not long after jacked up the price 70%!!! and simply sent an email. They should be forced to lock people in to pricing for more than 6 months, this whole thing is scammy.

They fail to look after the customer and keep them on the plan prices compared to what they advertise.

We have had numerous outages, likely not their fault, but none the less poor delivery of power.

The prices right now at 41c per KW/h is insane. They and every other provider need to be investigated for manipulating the market, the cost of electricity in Australia NSW is unacceptable.

I joined Sumo a few years ago . I do have 6.5 KW solar system on my roof - my initial bill use to be $48 pm. Over the past few years sumo prises and charges increased and my current bill from $48 pm had become over $200 pm.
I decided to get rid of this company and got much better deal with DODO.
Don’t trust Sumo

*** Update*** After having read this review SUMO customer service contacted me, and although it took a week have rectified the issue and put me onto the actual plan I signed up for. Customer support was very helpful, but it should never have got to this stage in the first place.
************************************************************
I went online and reviewed a number of suppliers, I should have taken the negative reviews on Sumo more seriously!
They had the best prices for a switch - BUT!!
I went online, went through the process and got a quote for a a switch to a single time of use rate contract for my specific address.
I then phoned SUMO and referenced
the quote and the rates I’d received in the quote. The rep tried to tell me I couldn’t get that specific deal (couldn’t say why). I then said I’d try another retailer, and all of a sudden I could get the deal I’d been quoted on via their website.
I agreed to the deal at the prices in the original internet based quoted and told them to proceed.

I received my welcome pack a day later with a completely different deal and contract to what we had agreed on the phone. Peak and off peak rates instead of a single fixed rate and significantly higher than what had been agreed!!

Reading other reviews this is not a admin mistake and seems pretty common practice for SUMO which has happened to others. Dishonest and unethical at best, bordering on fraudulent. I agreed a specific contract and have been signed up for something completely different and MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE than agreed.

Call centre closed over the weekend so now a wait till Monday and the long tedious process of either getting the agreed deal sorted or cancelling and finding a more ETHICAL supplier - which at this stage is my preference. All trust and credibility lost.

Professional service &
Friendly

Happy with the support I received this morning on the phone and even happier with a deduction in my Sumo payment because of the Govt support

If l could give zero stars l would.
Ever since l joined, l have been stuffed around and told Admin errors all the time.First they accidentally joined up my neighbours instead of me, then they were sending me two bills for elect at once! Now another issue tonight.. hours on the phone!! Do not go join

Exceptionally poor bill layout, i believe it to be deliberately misleading and confusing.

In early May i get warned via a sms, a payment is going to be debited from a fully funded account .... However no deduction is made.
Then late May i get a new bill which states i never paid the last bill and am now overdue.

This is not the first time this has happened.
APPALLING

Called up today to see if I could get a better rate for my electricity and am very glad I did!. The person I spoke to was very helpful, informative and polite. They told me exactly what the new cheaper charges would be per kw and it was all very quick and easy.

spoke to Annalise who was very friendly and explained why this months bill as $124 more than the previous month? She explained that there are other plans that may be of a more competitive nature (lowering costs). She has emailed me as promised a review of other plans to consider. over all experience was courteous and professional. Note, if there are better plans available Sumo should advise customers as a matter of urgency, now that's customer service!!
