These stand-out apps are a must have for any smartphone user.
ESB Electric Ireland App
The ESB Electric Ireland App is ideal for those with an indoor, or otherwise inaccessible, electricity meter and who tend to often miss the meter reader. This can result in running into difficulty with bills which are based on estimated readings over a long period of time, so this easy-to-use app allows customers to gain much more control over their electricity bills.
You are not limited to submitting readings for just one property, either. For instance, maybe your mum doesn’t have an iPhone yet or still hasn’t gotten to grips with the web, but would like to be able to submit her own meter reading. If so, this app will let you register her address (and as many others as you like) so you can submit readings for her, too.
Bord Gáis Energy Think Beyond
The Bord Gáis Energy Think Beyond App allows Bord Gáis Energy residential customers to stay in touch with their gas and electricity accounts. The app was the first of its kind in Ireland from an energy utility. It was the first step in Bord Gáis Energy’s commitment to developing smartphone applications to meet changing customer needs and demonstrated its continued strategy of using new and innovative channels to offer products and services to its growing customer base.
Winner of the Mobile Internet Innovation Award at the 2011 Digital Media Awards, the Think Beyond app remains to be the only smartphone app from an energy utility in the Irish market that allows its residential customers to view actual account data, like current balance, last payment, etc, as well as submit gas meter readings.
Future developments include electricity meter read functionality, as well as an Android version.
