    This thread is just going round in one endless circle, perpetuated by 2 people in the main. Can't you discuss something else. It's getting exceedingly boring now. No one has learnt anything of value.

    Never yet any justification for the cynical deceptions!
    I refer you to your previously posted comment about me "Nigewick, you used to boast you are an ex-copper.

    Is this how you used to stitch people up?"

    I am just back from some time with my grandchildren and feeling mellow. Do you still say that you stand by this quote stating that I committed criminal offences when a Police Officer or will you apologise?

    No, I didn't ignore you.
    But you ignore my reasonable request for an apology.

    I fail to see how paying ANY such middlemen can, in the long term save anybody money ?
    Perhaps because you have not looked to see if it is possible?

    No. Because the current distributors will carry on gathering new customers. Gathering customers is what pays. I gather a customer and as long as they stay with the company, I get paid a small percentage of their bill every month. However, the company will certainly grow more quickly with a larger number of distributors.

    Really? How many UW salesman give after tapping up friends and family? How many 'cold' leads do you get? I would dearly love a UW salesman to knock on my door, honestly. I would invite them in, a nice cuppa, then straight down to triple guarantee talk.

    Do you tell your customers that you receive a percentage of their future bill in commission?

    Like I said a couple of days ago, two words, kettle + black.

    No one from UW insisted that carmine apologise for accusing me of defrauding my employer.

    Shouldn't you be dealing with your own backlog of unanswered points,
    At present, I am only really concerned with your staement that I committed offences when I was a Police Officer.

    DaveW007 made his own decision to sign up as per his first post, got his first bill and then went straight back to SWALEC - Is it any great surprise that this caused complications. I am impressed that it was sorted so quickly given the circumstances. Of course you can quote 4 months and ignore the detail (Heh, perhaps you would be the perfect distributor) :D

    I did make my own decision to sign to with UW because going on the information they gave me they certainly appeared cheaper. I contacted UW directly rather than go through an agent etc.

    With all the aggravation etc I have had in trying to obtain a correct bill I certainly won't recommend them.

    When I was speaking to them again today I said that I think it would be a good idea to be able to issue correct bills as a benefit of the membership.

    I'm just going to pay them what they have now told me should be the correct amount but still let the Energy Ombudsman look into it.

    NigelWick - Thank-you for your assistance in trying to resolve the dispute
