Scottish Power application

I applied online to switch to Scottish Power (Online Energy Saver 12) yesterday but after submitting my application I didn't hear anything.

I've applied to them before and I'm sure in the past I have received an automatically generated email to confirm receipt. After waiting a few hours I applied again just in case and again nothing!

I rang them up this morning and they couldn't find any details on their system (although they said I should call again tomorrow to check).

Has anyone else applied for this recently online - and how long did they have to wait for confirmation?

    Oh, just seen your thread.

    You got further than I did. I can't even apply to get on the tariff :huh:
    Just made a thread about it myself here

    Hopefully Colin will be along soon with some help. :)

    Finally received a confirmation email from Scottish Power this morning - 2 days after application.

    So all is well (I think!) - although I now have two tracked transactions on Topcashback...
