Who will you complain to, Southern Electric themselves or is there someone else you can complain to Of-something? I'm surprised Watchdog haven't taken this up: it seems to have been going on for years

Well, I thought of complaining to Southern Electric but maybe Watchdog is a better idea. I have just been reading all the stories from the other thread and it makes interesting reading. Seems I was lucky. I remember now why I spoke to him - he said he wasn't selling anything but wanted to inform me of changes taking place in my area. So that was a blatant lie to start off with - he very definitely was trying to sell me something.

Then if they come back I can say 'Oh yes, I remember your colleague, he was the one I reported to Watchdog!:rotfl:

Had one knocking on my door today from Southern Electric, his line to me, after I told him I didn't want to go onto a Standard Tarriff, was that all online deals from all companies were to be stopped as from today :rotfl:this information he got from Ofgen this morning. I told him to stop lying, he said he wasn't, I said you are, repeated this about 4 times then he made his excuses and left.

I can't remember which lekky company knocked on my door, but the knocker tried to convince me to change to his company because 'then all your electricity will come to you direct from the local power station'.
Ho hum, that'll surprise the national grid chaps.

Did they say how often the delivery van would be coming round? If it's daily, you could have asked them if they can bring milk at the same time...
