Lucky Larne Lady!

23 Jun 2009

A lady from Larne who topped up her electricity Keypad online is the lucky winner of a recent prize draw, held by NIE Energy.

Hilary Glenhomes from Larne pays for her electricity using a ‘pay as you go’ Keypad and she walked away with the prize of £200 after she bought a £20 top up for her Keypad online.

Hilary recently switched to buying top ups for her Keypad on the internet, using NIE Energy’s online service.

NIE Energy’s Nicola Gilmore recently met Hilary to present her with her prize. Winner Hilary said:

“I think the online service is really useful in the house. I like topping up £20 at a time, as it lasts longer, which is handy. I used to buy credit for my Keypad over the phone. My son suggested the switch to topping up online and I have found it so convenient.”

The relatively new online top up service is proving to be convenient for anyone with a 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 Nicola Gilmore said: “Congratulations to Hilary for topping up and winning the £200.

“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.”

Nicola added: “Not only will NIE Energy install a Keypad meter for free, but unlike some British based suppliers, NIE Energy does not charge extra for Keypad. We go the other way and give discount.

“Anyone with a NIE Energy Keypad can benefit from the convenience of online top ups. As well as receiving a discount, Keypad provides real time feedback on how much electricity is being using, helping households to better control electricity use.”

Top-up anytime online at www.nieenergy.co.uk or from NIE Energy’s automated telephone service on 08457 455 455. Or, you can top up from any Paypoint and PayZone agent local shops.
