We are yet again digressing from UW energy prices. Please click on the thumbnails below to compare two screen shots from energyhelpline, which show how expensive UW really are.

But these are not your figures are they? I have shown on this thread how I pay Utility Warehouse less for my gas and electricity than I would to any other company. How about providing your actual usage, current supplier and tariff so that we can see exactly what you mean? Unless you show actual numbers, there can be no verifiable comparison.

As we are leaving them to themselves here, please PM me as I now have a fledgling forum set up for those who want to escape from this madness.

Perhaps we could leave them guessing. They like nothing better to accuse people of double standards if you do leave and then come back later.

1. Nigewick is a uw rep (you didn't mention that!). So he would say that.

2. He is referring to the bottom line, not the cost of his gas and electricity. He does say he makes use of the risky prepayment card!

(It has been suggested to him he could get his gas and electricity cheaper elsewhere!)

1. Are you calling me a liar?

1a. I try and mention that I am an Independent Distributor with Utility Warehouse every day or new page of this thread. Are you suggesting that people reading the thread will not see this? Are you so desperate now that you clutch at the straw of saying others need to mention my association with the company too?

2. I have mentioned the pre payment card on numerous occasions and put my actual numbers up for perusal. YOU OTOH, have claimed to have a Utility Warehouse pre payment beating combination of suppliers and cashback card but have never shown anybody here how to get this wonderful instrument of money saving.

"Suggesting" that I can get a better deal elsewhere is not showing me the actual companies or cashback card.

On this thread I have shown how I pay less than with any other companies. PLEASE! show us which combination of companies and cashback card will save me money!!! So far you have made claims but not provided one shred of proof.

I am an Independent Distributor with Utility Warehouse and the views I express may not be shared by the company.

He must waste his UW discount trying to obtain cheaper energy, when most folk who are not addicted to ringing 0870/0845 number could receive free UW broadband and phone (sufficient spend on discount card applicable) if they used their discount more wisely. You could even make a profit, as UW refund any discount not used.

Though it would seem this a bad idea because most UW customers have friends all over the world and ring folk all day everyday, constantly ringing 0870/0845 numbers. So they have to pay massively over the odds for their energy to qualify for the relevant phone package. Yeah, OK.:rolleyes:

I pay Utility Warehouse less for my utilities than I would with any other company. This includes gas, electricity, phone line, broad band and mobile phone. Please explain how I manage this if Utility Warehouse prices are as high as you suggest.

I have since cancelled the account and direct debit but they have still been billing me and demanded the sim card back or they will charge me the full amount whatever that is ... Even though I orignally paid £10?

Why not just send the sim card back as it is of no use to you? As with all companies, there is small print. Have you read it? Was the £10 a connection fee? Does it say that the company still owns the sim card? Could that be why they want it back?

£200 joining fee put me off

How much would it cost you to start a "regular" business? If you think £200 to start a business is too much, you are probably making a wise decision in not giving it a go.

When I repeated this, another rep pointed out it was not true, and I replied that I "stood corrected".

Speaking of standing corrected. How about providing us with the link to your Utility Warehouse pre payment card beating cashback card. Or are you going to have to "stand corrected" there too?

Carmine may not be quite what he appears.

This accusation could be aimed at yourself too. When are you going to provide the link to your Utility Warehouse pre payment card beating cashback card?

Its such a con

And your evidence for this accusation is? Don't tell me, you were asked to fork out £200 to start a business where you could earn some money if you worked at it, and, you have started successful businesses on far less and did not have to put in any effort?

Obviously I didn't express them here because it would be pure supposition.

A bit like claiming you save 19% on your electricity and gas without showing how it is done by quoting your actual usage, current provider and tariff?
