Your recall is mistaken.

Bearing in mind the legal threat already made by your colleague, why are you getting involved by using mistaken "recall" like this?

Can you elaborate on where I am mistaken?

getting used to it to be honest. It's a shame some egos do not allow the admission of a simple mistake.

Hardly! (In view of the proposed litigation).

Morning all!! all this interest in UW!! Fantastic!!

i am very happy to be involved with a company that holds best buy status for services, and 5star awards for others!! given by the leading consumer mag! not forgetting the TOP PLC 2008 award given to the company by FT. I became a customer years ago,then I became a distributor. Andy UW distributor

The Which 'award' was not as a result of any appraisal of the company. It was a reader's survey and with 25,000+ UW reps all eager to promote UW it is a meaningless award.

Much in the way that Arthur Scargill was voted BBC 'Man of the Year' at the height of his unpopularity; the miner's lodges got people to vote for him.

UW HAVE VERY HIGH GAS AND ELECTRICITY PRICES

This thread is full of posts from people with vested interests.

Just in case any newcomer is baffled by the last few pages, all you really need to know is that UW have just about the highest gas and electricity prices in UK, and if a a relative/friend tries to tell you otherwise - do not believe them.

Check it out on any of the comparison websites or check prices manually.

BT have approx 87,000 UK employees and no less than 180,000 pensioners in the UK. Still didn't stop them trailing UW by some 33% in that survey :eek::p Perhaps they need to try and get Which to launch in the Indian sub-continent and launch another survey there...

DUE TO TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ONE OF THEIR UNIQUE INITIATIVES I GET MY UTILITIES FAR CHEAPER WITH UW THAN WITH ANY OTHER SUPPLIER!

And if you REALLY want to know what Cardew thinks about these comparison sites he keeps referencing in this thread, just read the thread he started on these very forums 9 days ago. It's rather tellingly entitled More Comparison Network 'tricks'

The which survey uw use to promote their company (itself against the which rules) just involved customers of the various energy suppliers completing a survey.

Only 90 (out of a total of 6088) responses were from uw. (Compared with 1288 for BG, 1278 for SSE). And each fuel got a separate form (so it could be just 45 uw customers completing 2 surveys each, one for gas and one for electricity)

And what proportion of those 90 (or 45?) had a vested/financial/family interest?

But have you seen the reviews of uw here:

http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews-all-87791.html

The picture given there is vastly different to the which survey!

If you have difficulty spotting the reviews there which are written by uw reps, then come back for some guidance!

How many reviews on there did you write, Quentin?

The link to the increasingly fictitious-looking UW-beating pre-paid cashback card any nearer arriving? Thought not. Useless.

PS Check out the reviews for the Big 6 on there. We'll start with BG:
