Just reading back at some of your first posts on here arteta1878, you really have changed your tune about UW!!!!
He failed and it's all that nasty UW's fault. I mean, it has to be, doesn't it?I too have my gas and electricity with the terminally useless EDF but still have broadcall and 2 mobile sims with UW and I know who's CS I would recommend out of the 2 companies. And it wouldn't be the French owned shower, that's for sure.

So, still no response about how you can get electricity, mobile, phone and broadband for £45 from anywhere?
How odd.
Allow me to assist you.
That was for 523 kWh of electricity, unlimited mobile minutes and texts, unlimited landline to landline phone calls 24/7 and unlimited broadband.
Where could I have got all of that for less than £45 in January? Anyone?

I have no idea how much I spent on the Cashback card. The reason that I have no idea is because in using the card, I haven't had to change my spending habits at all, so I simply use it instead of my normal debit card. I don't track every penny of my spending.
None of the 523kWh was on a night rate. I am on standard electricity, not Econ7.
So, once again - please can someone let me know how I could have received 523kWh of electricity, unlimited minutes and texts on mobile, 24/7 free landline to landline calls on phone and unlimited broadband for £45 in January? I would love to know - please! This is a money saving site. Please can one of you super-helpful and positive people show me how to save money based on the above?

hi there - i`ve just put in the 523kwh of electric for 1 month into the UW website , and for energy alone they say its £65 a month....
that also includes the ` take 4 for discount` - so could you tell everyone how you managed to get energy , phone, internet etc for less than the UW quote for electric alone?

Other people might want to go on about an individual pence per kWh on a unit of electricity, but they miss the whole point of the UWDC services complimenting each other in order to obtain increased discounts, and the moderators of this board are obviously not interested in an even discussion, as people are allowed to post about the UW prices all they like and say that it is expensive, but the position is not allowed to be defended by explaining how the system actually works.
If you don't want a proper debate, you might as well lock this thread and delete it, because by moderating it in this heavy-handed way, all that you are doing is showing that you don't understand the proposition at all. In not understanding, you think that our remonstrations are akin to sales pitches. You are wrong. UWDC is a Discount Club. It's not all about unit prices of gas and electricity, it's about a number of factors coming together at once to form an overall saving by virtue of them working in harmony. If you keep deleting posts which talk about such things, you might as well lock the thread, or admit that you're not interested in fairness at all.

If you keep deleting posts......
You know full well why your posts keep getting deleted!
But what are your reasons for continually reposting them after they are deleted, other than the one you admitted, when you returned with the spam:So, because it's boring otherwise............ (SPAM edited).......Please can you show me some other way that I could have had those 4 services for cheaper than that.
Thanks in advance of your anticipated co-operation.
Meeper.
And to continually "cloak" your spam in a supposed money saving "question" is just manipulative, and similar to the way uw reps continually abuse the forum (by using it to spam/mislead/get free advertising etc).
All such posts get deleted, so you are not getting picked on!0 -
Background noise.

Certainly. In response to the question asked - I simply used the other UWDC services in order to obtain a significant discount off my bill.

I was having a pleasant conversation with HappyMJ about the free share options available to new and existing distributors and I see our posts have gone as well! It's utterly pathetic tbh and not in the spirit of this site. It was just a discussion, nothing more and nothing less.
It does appear that the heavy handed 'censorship' on here does not allow for any positive comment or even general conversation about UW. I suspect the two naysayers have a large part to play in the removal of any text that might indicate that UWDC can be a very good choice for a lot of people.
It's a very one-sided thread now, not fair or balanced in any way.
Anyway, I'm off to sign up a customer. Tally ho! :j'The only thing that helps me keep my slender grip on reality is the friendship I have with my collection of singing potatoes'

This dedicated thread was set up because of UW salesmen came on MSE and carried out the same practice as they do all over the web, namely trying to promote their company by masquerading as satisfied customers. Until recently, on this thread, one individual lied and lied for years about being ‘just a customer’ until exposed as a UW salesman.
Nowhere else on this forum are ‘salesmen’ allowed to promote their product – it is called SPAM. The representatives from the other Utility companies(E.ON – Scots Power etc) on MSE are excellent. They simply answer questions and sort out problems where possible; never even mentioning the merits of their company.
Yet on this thread, instead of answering questions, UW salesmen feel they have licence to actively ‘push’ UW and hope they will find a receptive audience. It would be bad enough if their sales spiel was accurate, but it contains enough inaccuracies to make a Downing Street Spin doctor blush.
So the ‘Spirit of this site’ is not to allow any salesman to spam and that includes UW salesmen.0 -
