Union Power Review 2021
Union Power is an electricity retailer, licensed by Energy Market Authority (EMA) and a member of Union Energy Group (UEG).

More importantly, Union Power is committed to helping you manage your energy costs in a hassle-free and cost-effective manner. So if you'd like to lower your electricity bill today, why not consider Union Power for your power solutions?

Union Saver 6 Plan
[Customer Services] is doesn't exist at all ! The standard machine will ask you to wait and after waiting, it will ask you to leave a message and auto hang up. The customer portal is absolutely useless. Can't even log in ! Lesson learn .. never go to small players even though you may save a few dollars. It sucks when you can't find help.0

- The portal is next to useless. Sent feedback via "contact us", but the feedback is not working, just spins and spins when click on submit. They weren't even aware until I had to contact them via facebook messenger and tell them. Mobile app also shows nothing of use. I though we paid for smart meter? But I can't monitor usage? Can't pay bill via the app, Can't cancel recurring payment via app, everything need to call/email customer service to do. Whats the point of your app/portal? If its just to say you have an app/portal but its useless, then might as well don't have. You have been around for quite a while and from my queries on your customers who have been with you for a long time, the app/portal was useless long ago and nothing has been done to improve it since. If not for your pricing being good, I wouldn't be impressed at all.

I had to do a re-location. Customer service was very helpful and guided me. Online portal was easy to use. Some paper work (hardcopy) involved but not unexpected as they don’t have economies of scale to go fully digital.0

- Online portal is one hell of the worst I have seen. Difficult to use and bills are only available up the last 5 months. If you forget to retrieve from the online portal for a few months, then it is gone for good! Customer service call center is very poor. For 3 consecutive days, I called hoping that a customer service officer would speak to me but was always put on call waiting. For each time, waited for 15 min and I'm still not connected to anyone. Billing payment method is always mixed up even though I have already linked it to set off against my U-Save account. I will not hesitate to swap to another provider once my 24 months contract end! Please improve your service as the competition is high out there !!!!

I've wrote in for enquiries when registering for my new house, and they were very fast to respond. Govt U-Save Rebates were also automatically applied to my bill, without me needing to do a thing. Their website and app don't have polish, but honestly fast customer service, cheap prices, and ease of govt rebates outweigh all of that. I've renewed a second year with them (their $40 rebate code is applicable for renewals too)0

- Billing process and bill generation is one of the worst I have come across. The bill is not easy to understand - (1) hard to understand when the actual meter reading occurs as the amount is simply shown as adj in the bill, (2) bill generation date and recurring card payment date happens within days, (3) e-bill is not even ready by the time payment is deducted from credit card! Payment options are limited. You can only select recurring basis for credit card or GIRO payment. No options for one-time payment. Forget about the app - you can view the pdf bill but are unable to download it. There is no other useful function on the app.
