Microtricity contact number

If you generate renewable energy and you send it back to the National Grid, you may be rewarded thanks to a government scheme called the Feed-in Tariff (FiT) or the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). Most suppliers, such as Ecotricity, still honour agreements for Feed-in Tariffs that have been maintained through the years, however, new applications are no longer being accepted. Ecotricity has also decided not to take part in the SEG scheme. However, before suppliers stopped working with Feed-in Tariffs, Ecotricity had its own unique version of the Feed-in Tariff called: Microtricity.

Perhaps you have a question about the monthly payments available to you on the scheme? Maybe your question is about this scheme's continuity? Whatever your question, get in contact with Ecotricity’s FiT Team on 0345 555 7600. Lines are open Monday to Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Fridays from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. You can also send an email to [email protected] with details about your query.

Priority Services Register

Priority services are for vulnerable customers who will need some extra help managing their energy accounts. This could pertain to families with children under the age of 5, adults over 60, or with someone who is either sick or disabled. The Priority Services Register takes into account anything that could impede you from completing tasks such as submitting meter reads or calling for help during a power cut, just to name a few examples.

To register for Ecotricity's Priority Services scheme, fill out their online registration form. If you have any questions, you can reach them by telephone on 0345 555 7100. You can also send an email to [email protected].

Ecotricity contact number for complaints

To make a complaint to Ecotricity, contact the customer service department on 0145 375 6111. Representatives are available Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Ecotricity aims to resolve the issue on the same working day.

You can also file a complaint with Ecotricity online by filling out a complaints form or by sending an email detailing your issue to [email protected].

If you’ve still not received a response to your complaint within eight weeks, or you’re unhappy with the reply given to you by Ecotricity, you can escalate it in two ways:

Emergency contact numbers

Whether you've discovered an odd smell of gas in your home or there's a power cut, get your emergency resolved immediately by contacting the right person. In a gas or electricity emergency, you should not call your energy provider. Gas and electrical emergencies are dealt with by the regional distributors. There are two nationwide free numbers to call for 24/7 support.

Smell gas?

If you smell gas, you should immediately call the National Gas Service emergency line on 0800 111 999. This line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You should also take the following precautions:

  • Turn off the gas supply. Find the gas emergency control valve in your home and turn the handle by a quarter. You’ll know you’ve turned it off when the rigid line on the spindle is across the pipe.
  • Do not try to turn off your gas supply if the control valve is in your basement. If this is the case, immediately proceed to the next steps in this list.
  • Open all windows and doors to let air circulate through the home.
  • Get out of your home and stand somewhere in a safe place until the gas engineer arrives.
  • Do not light any incendiary device (like using a lighter or striking a match) or anything that could cause an explosion.

Got a power cut?

If you suspect an electricity power cut in your home, check whether your neighbours have lost power too. If this is the case, you should either contact your distribution network operator directly or call 105.

If your neighbours don’t have a power cut and it’s just your home that’s affected, you should call a qualified electrician. The cause may either be a tripped switch or an electricity meter fault. Sometimes power cuts or lightning storms can cause your meter to fail several days later. The following websites can help you find a registered electrician in your area:

  • Electrical Safety Register
  • Rated People
  • Local Electricians Direct
