Continuously call but never leave a voice message. I did recently leave AGL so probably relevant looking at previous posts

Recently left AGL they are now desperately trying to get us back as a customer.They were given ample opportunity to offer me a better deal before i switched providers. Their blatant greed and constant price gouging have encouraged others supplies to follow their lead. Thank god theres still some competitors who we can turn too for better rates.

I recently left AGL. The call was a hard sell to try to get me to cancel the move (as I hadn't received my final bill yet). Offered me a few incentives which were pretty much their standard new customer enticements. When I thanked him and said it was too late, he really cranked up the "assertiveness". Bye-bye AGL.

This is a spam/fishing call! I transferred from AGL to Another company via iSelect. This number-guy says he's from AGL retentions team and was wanting to confirm my identity by asking my address and bill details. I wasn't comfortable and said I needed to call AGL to confirm it was AGL. He says it is only through this channel and the support team wouldn't know about the deal but that I could call them and ask to be put through to the retentions team. He offered me $300 credit on gas and $300 credit on electricity and a better rate than offered at where I transferred to. I said I don't feel comfortable giving out my details and if you're from AGL they would know about it. He said you're welcome to call them and hung up on me. Called them and it's a scam call. Said they'd never call asking for personal details. Writing this here in case anyone might fall for it.

If this feed is anything to go by. I'd say it would be a safe bet it was AGL for me to then. No doubt offering a little, too late. You try and call them to negotiate prior to leaving and they call your bluff. They are just greedy and unfortunately for them they are going to be left with a very mature aged customer base that have not taken the time nor tech savvy to seek the smaller suppliers offering much better deals. Shame on AGL for being SO GREEDY..

It is a person pretending to be AGL when I rung AGL to let them know that there is a scammer going around pretending to be them. They said that they would never call any customer and ask for their ID. You have to contact them.. and the numbers that they are calling from not AGL numbers.

Rang but no one there, then received a message: Thanks (my name) for speaking with AGL today. On a scale of 1-5 where 1 is least satisfied and 5 is most satisfied, how satisfied are you by the service provided by our representative today?To opt out reply STOP.
From complaints above, seems AGL staff do this a lot, people leaving you for a reason and then bother them further!

Perhaps the AGL CEO should read all the complaints above and below. We are all being mislead by crappy providers. If you find a good provider let them know. If you find a bad one, let them know, twice.

They called and asked to confirm to relocate the service following up our request regarding moving to a new house. But we didn't and we are not going to move.

I also just recently left AGL, but I answered the call and got hold music that "all our agents are currently busy" so I wasn't waiting around to find out who/why they called. Assuming it is AGL, this is just more proof of their crappy customer service, which is half of why I left.

Just left AGL and signed up with Red Energy. AGL have been painful for a couple of years, so not unhappy about finally getting off my backside and doing something about it. This number called yesterday morning and then again this morning. Thanks to everyone for keeping this thread updated.
