On the front page it also says:



Are you suggesting this enormous site is paid for by just one guy, and is totally independent from uw?

When it suits uw they do this (say it's not me guv, it's one of our independent distributors)

eg. In answer to the ASA when misleading leaflets have been reported suggesting uw is the cheapest

or when it is pointed out that uw does pay switching sites the answer given is that its a rogue distributor doing this in the name of the uw.

Very clever!

Now Jime xbox kid who lives at home with his parents wants to act the same as when he was at school.

Quentin is the rumour spreading bully, and Jime is the small kid who stands behind the bully and says, "yeh take that" every time the bully says something against someone else. He has become Quentin's sidekick.

When the going gets difficult you resort to type, childish retorts. Please feel free to offer a sensible argument against my comments, puerile words do your 'cause' more harm than any post I or others make castigating to practises of UW.

Plucked up courage to say something without Quentin around huh.

I guess you haven't understood the mass derision you cause with your circular arguments. I would say get off your horse and eat your milk, but you aren't old enough for that. Look kid, go back to eating your sweets and playing your xbox.

Its becoming patently obvious that the number of distributors correlates closely to the number of customers, due largely to to the 'manipulation' of friends and family.

So when Vinny hopes for 2,800,000 customers in a few years, there will be roughly 260,000 distributors. What I find particular disturbing about the UW methods, is that it relies on ignorance and trust of friends and family. Ask me or you what your unit price is for gas or electric we would be able to tell you. Ask the 'average' UK citizen and I bet they wouldn't have a clue.

From Mike by the sea
So when a friend or a family member are promised cheaper gas and electric and are shown the triple guarantee, I would assume that said friend, trusting the person who 'just found out' would actually believe them. I find this a cynical exploitation of trust at the expense of an ongoing relationship. The next cynical step would be to try and sign the friend up as a distributor, what with 'trickle down' fiscal plan which UW operates, why not.

If you were to pitch an opportunity to your friends and family, would they roll over and say yes to everything? In my experience I got honest feedback from mine which enabled me to understand what I was doing right and what I was doing wrong. In some cases they saw the benefits and signed up and others told me where to go. I value the relationships with my friends and family more than "using" them to make money, maybe you don't.

I would not exploit people for my own ends and I find it very sad that you would think that this is the profile of a "uw distributor".

Not sure what you are saying here Mike.

Are you saying that Distributors don't recruit friends and family, because that would be exploiting them, and they "value the relationships".

Or they do recruit them, but don't make money from them?

You know full well that the initial recruits for many distributors are friends and family, and it would be disingenuous to say otherwise.

It seems everyone is now using the cashcard as the UW trump card. However that is a recent innovation and distrubutors have been using the same recruiting techniques for years - using the worthless TVG as the trump card.

Brilliant, I find you hilarious. Although not in the way you may wish. Again childish comments designed to bully and intimidate. I dont intimidate easly, unlike many potential UW customers who are 'manipulated' by their caring sharing friends.
