    IOr do you just form an opinion based on an assumption. I bet you didn't realise big al is 5'2" or that I am 6'5" until someone told you.


    I wouldnt say he didnt realise, probably just didnt care!

    I couldnt give a monkeys if you were 7'8" and weighed 25stone, it still doesnt explain why you never answer any awkward questions you get asked.

    Its usually little people with something to prove that boast about such things on internet forums, not the other way round.

    Companies use attention grabbing wording to.. erm... grab attention!!

    In other news, sky is blue, some clouds.

    Your ignorance explains the reason you try to ask awkward questions in the first place. Why do you waste lots of your time trying to waste my time.

    It seems you don't really know what you are talking about. If I answer you will it make any difference. You will still be ignorant anyway because you choose to ignore it.

    Anyway I got important stuff to do so no point in wasting more time. You will still be ignorant when UW have 2,800,000 customers.

    I am off to get some food and sign some more customers. You can just get blue in the face if you want to.

    Big al is not in UW..... The training is very different in UW.

    When you try and mislead us by posting things like this, you forget how you are caught out.

    This is what uw said about the reason big al was brought to your rally:
    The Utility Warehouse again welcomed Big Al to the stage to cover the concept of using the right word sequences to encourage a more receptive response from those people who are evaluating the Utility Warehouse business for the first time.

    And we can all see the way the contact is manipulated by the uw reps in the martini presentation:

    Are you thick, just don't listen or have a problem?

    Which is it?

    Answer yourself that because I am off now to do something constructive.

    If UW is so bad why so they do so well. Why do the customers recommend them. Why do they get all the good customer satisfaction results in the which magazine. Why are the customers so happy.

    Why do all 'conventional' companies that the big 6 are do so badly in the which report?

    Being a UW salesman, you must be aware how little people understand about energy prices - otherwise why would so many stay on BG's Standard tariff(which isn't much cheaper than UW's best tariff)

    As Big Al demonstrates, you can get people to buy almost anything - packets of crushed ice to Eskimos. There have always been people selling overpriced goods to the gullible.

    People are sold magnets that they strap onto the fuel lines of their car or Oil CH systems and they are absolutely convinced that it improves fuel consumption by up to 30% - it achieves this by 'lining up the molecules' - they post about it on MSE .

    Now UW have 26,000 distributors actively recruiting, and people, especially family and friends, will often simply believe what they are told.

    These 26,000, plus family members, all have a strong vested interest in seeing UW perform well in Which and other surveys - so vote for them.

    Why else would UW's representation in the Which survey be several times higher than their proportion of UK customers would suggest? Why would they give UW gas and electricity the highest marks on price, when clearly UW have some of the highest prices on the UK market?

    Surveys that can be influenced by vested interests are as worthless as UW's guarantees.

    Hmm, obviously hit a nerve there! :rolleyes:

    Is asking what UW classes as a Standard tariff really that much of an awkward question?

    I'll be dead and buried by the time UW has 2,800,000 customers (if that ever happens) so I how could I be ignorant?

    Would people miss your ranting when you go? Serious question.

    You rant on and on and make no sense it seems.

    Must go, got to go sign up a customer and you are just wasting your time and trying to waste everyone else's. I have a life to lead. I suggest you do the same.

    I am turning the computer off now. Goodbye.
