    Seems like all your need to do Carmine is scan your bill when it comes in and it'll put all this to bed. Personal insults included. Then the new accusation will probably then be that it's been photoshopped to change the figures. :D

    A little rich from an individual who has accused me of libel, then seen the error of their ways yet refuses to apologise, and may have a little more to declare that most. ;)

    I have bought my normal shopping, petrol etc and as such have not had to pay anything for my utilities, who else on here can say that?

    As you know, I am happy you are happy.

    But you didn't get "free" gas, electric, phone etc. as you claim. You had to pay for it like the rest of us do! You chose to buy expensive gas and electric and then used the cashback you say you got to pay your bill!

    Prefer Boston Legal mate. :rotfl:

    May I recommend Hill Street Blues, it may complement your sound technical knowledge of Starsky & Hutch.

    Had any more phone calls from you know you? Mwahahahaha!

    So, anyone who is a happy UW customer and has even got a negative bill has been 'indoctrinated' (Jimexbox), 'conned' (Cardew), or 'gullible' (Quentin - repeatedly). Per-lease!!

    If you don't think the uw looks out for gullible customers, have a look again at the spanish teachers being signed up in what we are told is a "live" selling session:

    Take note of Gary's polite, yet assertive approach and the fact that there is very little detail in his presentation.

    If you use £50 worth of g/e, but get a discount of £50, how much do you pay? I calculate £0. It is therefore FREE, no matter how much you move the goalposts. :D

    How are things over at the networker plus site? Anything to declare?

    It would be free if you were given a "discount".

    But that is not the case! Therefore it is not "FREE"!

    I seem to recall you arguing in the past that it wasn't really cashback, just a discount off the UW bill.


    tbh it's just semantics. I don't care whether you call it cashback, discount of magic fairy points - My bill was reduced by more than 50% last month, my parents by more than 100%. Concidering without the casback (or whatever) my bills are around £115 per month than before I joined UW (yes, I was getting ripped off), I can't see why anyone would have a problem with this.

    Had any irate UW customer angry that they have been shamefully ignored in the £100 discount promotion? Or are you just keeping quiet, less knowledge is power and all that?

    Ha ha ha:rotfl:You're brilliant! Another, "Over at the Rep's Forum"-type post - and it's the same link (AGAIN!)

    Do you realise how small and desperate this kind of post, and your self-appointed 'whistleblower' role, makes you look? I said a couple of days ago that what you're actually 'reporting' is:

    "Shock, Horror! Sales-types discuss Sales Techniques on their Website!" - SO WHAT?!!!

    Here's my own version...

    'Over at the MSE Forum, desperate keyboard warriors are still arguing the toss as to whether UW can be good value for people - even resorting to labelling UW customers 'gullible', 'indoctrinated', and 'conned'. One of them has posted the same drivel over '000's of posts and years and continues to do so with no real identifiable reason' - bit sad really isn't it?
