Utility Warehouse (Telecom Plus) Discussion

I'll be in for some shares if they get as low as 2.60, if only for the divi short-term. It's not as if you can get much of a return on your wonga (cue lodger's intervention again) in traditional savings these days. They have been very much oversold after the 'drop in profits this year' line in the accounts. IMO/DYOR etc......

:mad: As with any service provider the proof is in not just customer services it is when things go wrong. Due to a rather large overestimated bill I kicked up and the account was messed up. We ended up getting a message to every mobile telephone we had about the phone was about to be cut off please call us with your credit card to pay your bill. Problem was our 14 year old daugther got the message as well and thought she had ran up a big bill, did not come home and we had to find her. The companies stance on this is "the mobiles are under one account we can do this nothing wrong." Anyone with an ounce of brains would have knew someone dont carry around three or more mobile telephones and I bet they would not have done it to a big company either!"

Sad to say many years ago I was a distributor for this company, but one thing I do agree on is comments about the way they act, I was bought up in the Jehovah's Witness religion their meetings reminded me of just that in every shape and form!

johnjames1, hope you get it sorted soon.

I should warn you that you may be accused of being a 'sockpuppet', not a term I was familiar with until reading and contributing in this thread. Apparently anyone posting here with no posting history, (for carmine to read) especially when they have negative comments regarding UW. Are thought of as a nom de plume of a regular detractor. oh hum

You don't actually distribute anything

Very true. It's just a name for people, that I presume somebody in marketing thought up.

What sort of time scale are you talking about? I wouldn't have thought the company would threaten to cut you off if you contacted them and explained there was a problem.

>>>We ended up getting a message to every mobile telephone we had<<<

One would imagine that would be so that they knew the bill payer was contacted and could sort something out.

Nope, plenty of room on the boat. All you have to do is work, but, not as hard as they did on the pyramids. I have been with the company seven years. If you've got any questions, just ask.

After reading reveiws, looking at the structure, the fact that they are not competative on price and there is no way of honestly selling to others than trying to get new members to be part of the pyramid I have decided to no look at it any further.

Coo, that was quick! As to the structure, what is wrong with offering utilities to people and getting paid if they sign up? On to price, Carmine has put up his requirements for services and nobody has been able to find a better deal for him than with Utility Warehouse. I have shown that by using the pre payment card, I get my utilities cheaper than with any other company. You state that you do not want to get people to be part of a pyramid, obviously without understanding what the structure actually is when compared to say Richard Branson and his Virgin empire.
