Adrian Arthurs from Kircubbin pays for his electricity using a ‘pay as you go’ Keypad and he has walked away with the prize after switching to top up for his Keypad online.
NIE Energy’s Kathryn Kyle met Adrian recently to present him with his prize. Winner Adrian said: “I think the online service is a brilliant idea. It is so useful. When I get home I can just go online to buy my electricity credit. I will certainly be topping up online from my new laptop!”
This relatively new service is proving to be incredibly convenient for anyone with Keypad. With the ability to top up anytime, the online facility provides NIE Energy customers with a service from the comfort of their own home.
NIE Energy’s Kathryn Kyle said: “Congratulations to Adrian for topping up and winning the laptop.
“Over 214,000 of our customers currently have a Keypad installed. They have proved really popular, not least because NIE Energy gives Keypad customers 2.5% discount off the standard price of electricity for every unit of electricity used.
“Anyone with a NIE Energy Keypad can benefit from the convenience of online top ups so why not top up online today.”
As an added incentive, during February, all Keypad customers who buy a top-up of £20 or more online or from the NIE Energy telephone service at 08457 455 455, will automatically be entered into the prize draw to win £200.
Kathryn added: “Unlike some mainland based suppliers, NIE Energy does not charge extra for ‘pay as you go’, with a Keypad. In fact, NIE Energy gives Keypad customers 2.5% discount off the standard price of electricity. “
As well as receiving a discount, customers will benefit as a Keypad provides real time feedback on how much electricity being using, helping households to better control electricity use.
As well as being able to buy top-ups online at www.nieenergy.co.uk, you can top-up anytime from the NIE Energy automated telephone service on 08457 455 455. Or you can top up from any Paypoint and PayZone shops.
If you are already a NIE Energy Keypad customer, another way to save money is Keypad Power-shift. Keypad Power-shift gives lower cost electricity every evening, all weekend and during the day Monday to Friday, in fact, at all times except between 4-7pm daily Monday - Friday.
