The only silver lining to all this is that you will recoup the £30 in next to no time in the savings you are now going to make by moving everything previously with uw to proper utility companies. (You save at least £21 a year by not paying their "membership" fee). Also use quidco or energyhelpline etc for as many switches as you can to get some cashbacks to offset the £30. And make sure ...

MIke. I think Quentin is referring to BT,s Free Evening and Weekend Call Offer if you sign a 12 month rolling contract. Not the one you pay ?3.45p a moment for. Have you moved your line rental to UW,if so how do you manage to use Primus, i thought only BT allowed you to CPS your calls to another supplier. A friend of mind uses them and whenever i raise the membership fee,he says its worth that just to get everything on one bill,and the free...

Quentin, since he started posting in May 2006, MBTS has been regularly sailing close to the wind with posts which many view as blatant promotion of UW/Telecom Plus (of which he is a 'distributor'). I clearly touched a nerve when I posted Martin's opinion of the company (from 2006 IIRC) and, unfortunately, he went into attack mode again. Sorry. My fault.

Just butting in here.. my dad's a UWDC distributer and we're always telling him to get a better job and keep UWDC as a part time hobby.. it is bringing him in some money though. Anyway, you keep saying that Mike and other UWDC are just in here promoting UWDC all the time etc. But surely, when you look closer, you are posting competitor's pricing and thus, subtly, advertising/promoting these companies and services. Sure it may...

I cancelled my Utility Warehouse account in August 2009 after being with them for 12 years since September 1997 since they began. They have just outrageously billed me £59.98 for smartboxes (I only ever had one box - so old it wasnt even pig shaped!) sent to me TWELVE years ago. They have decided as a 'goodwill gesture' to refund the amount now. And bl**dy right they should too.

Hi all, I just wanted to add a note in about the Utility Warehouse. I have been with them for 5 months. 5 Months of hell. I cannot urge people strongly enough to keep away from them. I was mis-sold, but now no-one in the customer service team will believe me as the 'distributor' has lied. I feel that if anyone is even considering using them just google them and you will find out that they have many, many complaints. I just wish I...
