    some of the people involved in the Utilities section are touts, I've just found out....And it is easier to change supplier to a smaller firm, one has already offered!

    ? (saying nothing)
  • Ha ha! There's finally a postscript! After help from Consumer Focus and E.On the bill is now only 77 quid and I AM allowed to change provider whilst paying off the backlog. So most of you judgemental types were W.R.O.N.G!!!:T

    I take it that now the situation is sorted out, the above is your way of saying 'thanks' to those who took the time to try to help you.

    I'm not a troll. But some of the people involved in the Utilities section are touts, I've just found out. What's morally worse? There are quite a few on the whole forum.

    I have no idea where these pathetic and lonely people get off on being judgemental and why other posts are relevant. Simplex D IS a very good accounts system for example. And it is easier to change supplier to a smaller firm, one has already offered!



    You were obiously aware you where using elec and gas and this has to be paid for but you spent your benefits on other things other that what it was intended for??? Benefits that people like me have to pay for???
    This really winds me up, if you cant pay for it dont use it...simple.
