What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Energy Super draws a mixed account from members posting about their dealings with the Brisbane fund. Praise centres on a call centre that genuinely operates locally, with staff repeatedly described as pleasant and easy to deal with, and a family that held accounts for decades credits responsive service with helping fund aged care later in life, naming Jessica for guidance through superannuation rules at a difficult moment. Swift turnaround appears often, including one self-managed super fund setup where instructions were followed precisely and processed faster than anticipated.

Recurring complaints, by contrast, concern communication: confirmation of a completed transfer took weeks and never arrived by email or text, fund details requested for the tax office were not passed on, and callbacks offered during busy periods did not eventuate. Some members report income protection cover being cancelled without notice, and others describe fees that steadily reduced their balance, including a charge applied when rolling money to another fund. Frustration with unanswered calls and abrupt rule changes recurs across the accounts. The result is a profile where efficient, personable assistance sits alongside persistent dissatisfaction with follow-through, billing and the handling of member problems.

Absolutely disgusting company that nobody on the planet should have to deal with. I would never recommend them in a 1000 years, unless you want to get screwed over. 1 star is even too generous.

My parents have been with Energy Super since its inception and it is the reason they can afford the aged care they now need. Energy Super has a great track record, are very responsive and have excellent customer service. I’d like to make a particular mention of Jessica—thanks for your help navigating the complexities of the super system at this difficult time.

I have asked them to report fund details to ATO twice last week but still ATO is saying that ATO has not received fund details from Energy Super. Please act on my request if you do not want to act then say "NO" that will be ok. Also, They finished my transfer process & they had not sent any confirmation email or txt that transfer was finish after 8 weeks. It is meaning less that your system even do not have basic functions in 2020. Also, after transfer they created new member number & they do not feel that Member should be informed that & they kept it in the system untill I asked after 8 weeks & 30 minutes call time that what is happening with my transfer & answer was "It is already done week ago & new member number is created which was not linked to members login account. so member no way can trace what is happening. It was ~$12k transfer which I feel Energy super is thinking it is small coin amount & It is ok to work as cheap standard. I feel your system it still old when I compare with the Nab or any other banking system. Also, Customer care staff needs to get train to answer question instead of getting argument mode answering style. Please report my fund to ATO ASAP. Please report my fund to ATO ASAP. Please report my fund to ATO ASAP. If you have already done report before week or so then.. (As per ATO asked me to tell you guys) Please re-report my fund to ATO ASAP. Please re-report my fund to ATO ASAP. Please re-report my fund to ATO ASAP. If you have already done re-report then.. Please re-re-report my fund to ATO ASAP. Please re-re-report my fund to ATO ASAP. Please re-re-report my fund to ATO ASAP. It's pain to work with you guys that's what I can say... I hope you guys understand. Regards & Thanks. ..... Issues were resolved and appreciated phone call from the team.

Above average returns combined with a super friendly call centre that is actually based in Brisbane. Keep up the good work!
