### 5/5 — Mr Adrian

*2026-08-21, version 2.34.1*

Very good customer service

### 1/5 — Waste of Time App

*2026-08-21, version 2.34.1*

Every time I opened this app I had to keep entering the log in details. Very broken so would not trust it at all. No iPad version either.

### 3/5 — App is 5-6 days behind…

*2026-08-20, version 2.34.1*

Over the last few weeks this app has been getting worse regarding showing the daily usage.
It was excellent for a few months, showing the updated electricity usage the following morning and the gas would update late afternoon.
But now it’s missing complete days and is 5 or 6 days behind.
I’m guessing it’s only a matter of time before this app stops updating altogether.
Can’t contact any sort of support to report the issue.

### 1/5 — Update faulty

*2026-08-19, version 2.34.1*

Since I carried out the last update my usage is not being registered correctly

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-08-19, version 2.34.1*

App been great for 12 months, but for the last 5/6 weeks it just shows missing data on usage. I have phoned British Gas 5 times, just ‘refresh the app’ is what they say. As a Pensioner I need to monitor my usage, not a happy bunny with the app

### 3/5 — Expected better from the app

*2026-08-18, version 2.34.1*

When I had a smart meter installed I expected to be able to see my daily
Usage on the app in real time as the smart meter sends readings every half hour instead it’s five days behind and getting slower not impressed
My second complaint I have a credit which I would like to reclaim but using the app it sends me to a blank page ? I thought the app purpose was to make interaction with British Gas easier

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-08-18, version 2.34.1*

Good communication

### 1/5 — Missing Usage Data

*2026-08-17, version 2.34.1*

This app could be so useful if only the usage data was consistent. No usage data for electricity since mid March and gas since May

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2026-08-14, version 2.32.2*

Always directs to a page unavailable message - between the app and and equally unreliable website it’s amazing anything gets done at all

### 1/5 — Terrible App, Terrible Development Team!!!

*2026-08-13, version 2.32.2*

Terrible App, Terrible Development Team. Does not work on iPhone 12 Pro Max. Menus come up but select any options and it just hangs! App has worked intermittently over the last 12 months. However every update fixes one problem and creates another. It’s amateur development and poor customer service like this that pushes customers to competitor companies!
