British Gas and the Wrong Address
I received a letter from British Gas concerning meter replacement for my upstairs neighbour's account. I live at number 9, the customer is 9A . I thought that they 'd updated their records when I told them about the mistaken address 18 months ago, but apparently not. I tried phoning British Gas again today but the customer…

If I wait, should I also swap to a cheaper EDF deal for the interim period, rather than, presumably, being…

British gas and getting a smart meter installed.
I am interested in the purported offering soon of the 'free saturday' offer. Clearly, this might not happen. But - assuming it does - what's the current policy of BG with regards to smart meters - and how does it vary over the country. Specifically - if I switched to BG, and then changed tariff type to economy 7 - would…

Npower -what an experience
Npower its all in the name , I have just spoken to the worst call centre agent ever and as someone who has spent the last few years training people how to speak to customers on the phone from a customer centric point of view that's saying something.

iMeasure.org.uk update Sep 2013 - just how rubbish is it?
Wow, what a pile of , uhm, anyone any clue how to make it useable? Anyone got a view on how to find a decent view? They are still wasting space with repeating the same data three times (consumption, carbon and cost - it's the same thing). Graphs are worse.
