You may receive marketing from npower - people have been receiving calls even after opting out of receiving a quote (although I selected that I was already with npower and I haven't received any calls...yet anyway!)

By submitting your details, all relevant information, including title, first name, surname, address, date of birth & e–mail address will be withheld for processing by npower. [assuming they mean held]

Good luck :)

    I specifically opted out of receiving a quote but they rang me anyway. I explained to them that I had asked not to be contacted and they said "we are working on the premise that everyone would want contacting"!

  • I got a call too despite saying I didn't want one. I played along to get a quote etc etc but he got a bit arsey when I said that I'd like them to send me the quote in the post since I didn't want to agree to anything over the phone without spending some time reading through it all. I've been conned by npower before by trickster door-to-door salespeople - told I was just getting a quote and was signed up to them without my knowledge. Even if npower reckon they could save me £1000 a year I wouldn't go with them out of principle.

    I also got a call despite selecting the no option. I told them I had done so but they insisted there was no such option & that every entrant had to agree to be contacted for a quote. What a load of bull. Hope they're not as persistent as Scottish Power who rang me 6 times in 3 weeks after entering a similar comp! grrrr!1111111
