BT or British Gas employees?

[RiffRaff]

I'm sure there must be some local BT and British Gas employees on the forum?

How about some comments on the Statement/Question thread on the General/General Discussion forum?

Might be handy to see an employee's input....!

I worked for the 'Gas Board' when it was a nationalised industry in the 1970s. I dealt with telephone enquiries and complaints, a bit like a modern day call centre. I have to say in the early days it was a great working environment, the service engineers were fantastic - I remember them working til really late on Xmas eve to make sure everyone's gas oven was working!

 

I worked in Doncaster for about 10 years til it closed. I relocated to Sheffield for a couple of years, then finally worked in Rotherham until early 1996. My options then were to work in Mansfield or Leeds, so I chose redundancy! In my view, they were a forward looking employer who gave staff good training opportunities, and I had no problems finding other work.

 

I know they have recently introduced a new billing system - we are changing suppliers and I had a very threatening letter from them - before I'd received my final account! I've now received 2 final accounts? BG had a period of being held in high esteem by customers, and ranked with Marks & Spencers in terms of their customer service. Sadly, those days have long gone.
