Has anyone done this? Something on the line of 'i will change over to you if you fix my boiler or install a new radiator' etc etc
With such a competative market and door to door sales its obvious everyone wants your business. Has anyone successfully haggled?
My boilers broke and quoted £127 fixed free from BG. Im with Scottish Power now and wondering whether its cheeky to ask to waver the fee in return of me swapping over to them..

Most companies have separate budgets for departments such as Energy and Services so don't cross over. Let us know if you do get anywhere.Self Employed, Running my Dream Jobs0

If you do get an offer, however unlikely that is. You'd still probably save more money by using their cheapest online tariff and just paying to get it fixed.0
