I just called for this and was only on the phone for 2 or 3 minutes, spoke to a nice guy who didn't try to pressurise me at all.

  • How can I fake the need for a quote? I'm living in halls at the moment, so have no idea about bills.

    This is a great one. Off to do it now. Don't care what they quote, Im only interested in them donating some of their obscene profits to charity.:j :money:
    Update 16th Feb- Phoned them yesterday, only took 2 minutes and in the end they could only save me £3-65 a yr, not worth the hassle of switching but had a laugh with the operator.
