    I've been looking through various threads and have come to a conclusion that many people visiting this site do so simply to find fault with whatever is being discussed. Very little seems to be positive.

    Very sad.

    I've posted very negative posts and very positive posts about my own supplier Eon. I call a spade a spade.....Which is where UW come in :rotfl:

    I have just been comparing prices for my gas and electricity as my fixed deal with Eon is coming to an end. If I go on Eon's save online it will cost me £1044 for my fuel including vat. With UT it will cost me £1145 EXCLUDING vat. And that does not take into account any other monthly charges for being in their club. Definitely give that a miss

    Yes, you're probably correct. The account number the people I've just referred to UW indicated getting on for 26,000 extra customers acquired in July/August but that does seem high-ish (multiplying that by the 3 services each customer takes on average would suggest 78,000 new services which again seems high). I believe there's a trading update imminent so all should be revealed (the shares are up sharply today on thin trading so who knows?).

    Most impressive title! I assume that ranks way above mere 'independent distributors' like NigeWick? and denotes you work in UW management and are not a salesman?

    Would it be possible to list the ranks/appointments in the UW organisation; and how you are promoted to each level?

    You forgot(again) to mention that you work for UW in some capacity - are you a 'senior executive' like Andybos?

    I don't work for them in any capacity. I run my own business. UW are a business partner. And yes I am a senior executive, soon to be promoted to Executive Director. It's self promotion Cardew and nothing to do with management.

    Do people think Cardew should mention his involvement in The A.U.W.F. in each post. Then again its quite plain from his posts he has an unwarranted dislike for UW.
