I am so !!!!!! off with these people ringing me without my permission as I have apparently entered a competition where I agreed to have a price comparison & they were so !!!! rude to me & refused to tell me where the T&C are that tell me where I agreed to this so that I could check. She told me myoffers which I haven't been a member of for years! Not only them but EON contacting me as well & their comps are with Dennis publishing which says nothing about a price comparison & not only that but she refused to put me through to anyone who can show me T&C.

This is the last straw with phone calls and people at the door I am so sick of it now :mad:

    Ok I found 1 that says IF you requested a quote:

    A Scottish Power agent will contact you directly by telephone if you have requested a no obligation quote.

    but can't get to the T&C online as the sites aren't showing the comp :(

    I've only just had their MSE rep get my landline off the list, are SP & EON the same?

    :mad: They told me it via MyOffers too- like you, I've not had anything to do with them for years, (Know how spammy they are!)
    As I'm registered with TPS, have visited their online site and filled in a complaint form which they've acknowledged & will query with Eon :).
    Haven't been bothered by Scottish Power at all, but there could be a reason for that...
    Last year they were doing a very competitive deal when they rang, so we went through all the rigmarole of switching, (30 minutes+.) A couple of months later their sales chaps rang again. Turned out we hadn't been switched, so we went through it all again... :mad: Their sales team phoned again the next night, they still hadn't registered our switch :mad:!
    Doesn't exactly inspire confidence, does it?!

    ETA - sorry, to answer your question, the comps were both on all the Dennis publishing sites :) As far as I'm aware, SP & Eon aren't connected
    Worse things will have happened in the world today...

    I'd say it was one of the Dennis ones that I posted.Sorry all.It was spotted too late that "My Offers " were involved.I cannot seem to find the commented post though.There are a lot of the same comps posted though.

    catz, 10 calls, spoke to supervisors who promised i wasn't on their database anymore, i emailed a compalint and still they ring, I've been really ill and could hardly talk and dealing with their stupid sales calls drove me nuts.

    i was actually looking to change supplier but will never go to eon.

    I didn't see anything about myoffers in the ones you posted weeowen & they had the standard Dennis Publishing T&C which is why I entered them
