    Another keggs classic. So UW are just a big wholesome family that is purely there to provide for their extended family. Honestly mate, I feel nauseous reading such nonsense. UW exist to make money, end of story.

    Maybe they should change their name, 'The Waltons Warehouse'


    What about answering my point Jimexbox. Did you actually read the story. No I disn't think so. As usual your blinkers are on.

    You again accuse me of making a misleading post.

    Please show me where?

    You always tell us here how happy you are as a customer, yet on your uw reps forum you display the opposite - being so openly negative and concerned that your colleagues urge you not to go public, but deal one to one with your HO, and when this is pointed out here you tell us this is because one of the "traditional" rules of pyramid type operations is you must not be seen to be negative.

    Happy clappy (or misleading) comes to mind.


    You mislead the forum every time you mention the UW beating cashback card - unless after 9 months of being asked for a link you finally relent and provide it. Seriously, assuming it actually exists, what unimagineable horrors are lurking in its T&Cs for you to prolong your embarrassment by completely ignoring all requests for a link? One can only imagine... (shudders)
    Call me Carmine....

    HAVE YOU SEEN QUENTIN'S CASHBACK CARD??

    :confused:

    Its perfectly reasonable question. I just want to make sure the carmines dad is fully aware that the dubious £100 discount is for the 1st year only. Existing UW customers are being taken for granted, such a slap in the face for all their hard word (using the discount card) over the year.

    Why is the discount dubious? As long as its made clear that its for the first year only and not hidden in the T & C's, there is nothing dubious about it. Does it bother you that it makes UW a better deal for alot more people now, even if its only for a year? If I were a new customer signing up this discount would make UW one of the cheapest suppliers for me!

    Not worth answering. It's getting very boring now.

    Reports ME for abuse? Are you serious? Have you read his/her posts?

    Come to that, have you read your comments in the post above?

    You need to take a reality check or join Maz in the virtual forum kindergarden.

    Talk about Kindergarten. A reality check on your own part wouldn't go amiss for many reasons.

    Keggs from uw accuses me of making a misleading post regarding UW energy prices being more expensive than the big 6.

    I ask to be shown in what way the post was misleading.

    And get this reply:

    Yet this exchange all started when keggs asked me:

    As far your first point is concerned prove it

    I answer with independent "proof", you come back and again say I have mislead, and when I ask you to show me where I not only get told you feel it's not worth answering me, but then accuse me of "boring" you!

    Exactly, if, which you're not, so you get zero. Must leave a nasty taste in your mouth?

    Why not just give a percentage discount to all customer like my own supplier does? Then the more energy you consume, the greater the discount. Seems eminently more fair, although its probably too transparent for UW to make such a clear discount. When they can wrap it up with various hoops, such as having to take 3 services to qualify, and existing customers disgracefully ignored.

    Carmine (independent UW shareholder) is so quick to criticise every other energy supplier when they use these tactics, not a word of criticism from his keyboard, I wonder why.....

    But UW is more just a company. We are a sort of family. We help each other out when needed.

    In view of this novel approach to making profit, will you be helping your loyal family over this snub to their loyalty?

    Seeing as your family have all signed up for expensive gas and electricity to support you, will you now advise them how to save some money?

    (eg. To quit UW and go elsewhere, thereby saving lots more than the £100 all the new gullibles are going to get, but your family won't be?).

    The two sides in this thread are so far apart that it's pretty pointless arguing now. They'll never agree, so the slanging match just makes it look a bit juvenile. Oh, by the way ......

    My dad's bigger than your dad.

    Why does this thread exist? Because UW reps forced MSE hand by constantly creating fake threads with the sole intention of promoting UW.
