Cashback reliability on utility switch
I am intending to switch to Scottish Power. Martin's energy club offer £80 cashback but another cashback site offers £55. Is the cashback from the Energy Club reliable? I have always found the other cashback site very reliable for Utility switching cashbacks and don't want to "gamble" on getting the extra £25! Thanks. Sally

Cheap Energy Club - Always pays cashback?
Hello Money Savers, I'm unclear about the cashback paid by the Cheap Energy Club switches. Does it always pay £15/£30 for a single/dual fuel switch?
