Four questions solved in one call
We were very happy with our conversation with Maureen. She added my husband's pensioner card to our Gas account so that we could obtain a concessional discount. She set up direct debit payments. She extended our payment date for our first payment for a few extra days so the due payment could be direct debited. No wait time to be connected to Maureen. I did need to wait about 3 minutes to find out how much concession discount we received on our first bill. Overall, Maureen is an expert in these matters with a friendly manner and professional attitude.

Individualised service
I signed up because of the cheap gas prices and was impressed with how easy the process was. There was a hiccup with the transfer from my previous provider and Jhon provided an exceptional personal service to get this sorted, checking in and giving me regular updates via email. Early days, but so far, I'm very impressed.

Show detailsPromises made and never kept
I was phoned and offered to come back across after I left them for a cheaper rate company. I was promised a percentage discount off both my accounts and found when I received my first bills it was only given to one of my accounts. After many calls and speaking to 3 different customer service I was told by the 3rd person my issues would be sent to their Sales team and they would email me or call me. this was 2 weeks ago and have received no contact. Offering discounts to entice consumers to come back to them and not giving these is very unprofessional. Be wary of offers they may say they will give you. They will not keep their promises

Worst Energy Supplier in Australia
This company is definitely the worst Energy Supplier in Australia, Please don’t get fooled with the customer service >> It is only for the first time to hook customer, after that, they will slay you with every bills!!
1. They never do the meter reading, send bills on assumption according to last year Usage.
2. Called them and emailed them numerous times to send me invoice with the correct meter reading, but they never do So !
3. Alternatively, I have emailed them the actual meter photo with date and time , for them to adjust bill according to t
We appreciate your time in raising this to us and we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. We understand the importance of accurate billing and the efficiency of our customer service.
Hi Team ,
i don't believe it takes 3 months for an invoice to be generated with correct meter reading ?
You cannot assume and send bills according to last years Usage , the circumstance always changes with energy usage in house.
Customer service from Covau Excellent
Spoke to a customer service rep named sky from Covau. He was able to complete my request even at night 10.30 pm. He was pretty quick and helped me straight away. I would definitely recommend Covau for their service.
Show detailsQuestions & Answers
For Residential Electricity at postcode 2164, why does the CovaU website only offer the "Freedom Online" plan at "28% more than the reference price" and the "Freedom" plan for "31% more than the reference price"? Isn't the whole point of attracting new customers to offer pricing below the reference price? Or have I missed something?
How can I trust such a company that clearly posts hundreds of fake reviews here?
Hi Joe, sorry we missed your question here. All reviews directly come from our customers. We recommend that both bad and good experiences be shared so that we can continue to learn from our mistakes and strive to deliver the best service possible.
I didn't receive the first couple of paper statements when I first signed up and since my concession card was updated have not received my state-based concession details on the paper bill....also am having trouble finding where my total bill is up to.
Hi Alexandra, good day! May we ask for you account number so we can review your account and have one of our representative contact you today?
Thanks!
