Utility Warehouse (Telecom Plus) Discussion

Cardew

I am puzzled.

I use EnergyHelpline(which is the one recomended by Martin).

They list a total 68 tariffs. Which comparison website lists 154 tariffs please?(UW 36th and 118 tariffs more expensive than UW)

Can you tell me the site please.

Well I have just entered those figures on the link you gave and it only lists 73 tariffs.

The cheapest being EDF at £367 and UW at £483 so UW are £116(31.6%) more expensive.

This is great work, Cardew! An elderly friend of my dad's has recently been taken off BT LUS and put on 'normal' BT line rental. Not happy. Lives alone (widowed). Currently with BG for gas and npower for electric (standard rate on both).

Gas 8966
Electric 1160
Phone line Rental

Yorkshire region.

Best deal for him, please? TIA!

Only 73? Are you including all of the duplicates for Quarterly/Cheque payments? How many lines of data have you got? I presume that some are up there twice, once for Monthly payments and once for Quarterly, by DD or cheque.

The site costs them all as different tariffs, so that's what i've done too. I would save about £70-75 based on my current supplier.

Not sure I understand; or have you been taking lessons from your leader in obfuscation.

We are not talking about your current supplier. The cheapest UW tariff, as I said, is £116 more than the cheapest available tariff. That is 31.6% more expensive. That is on a tiny consumption. Average users will pay £hundreds more with UW.

You said that UW were 36th with 118 cheaper tariffs.(it shows as 39th for me)

There are 73 tariffs listed and I have 73 lines of data.

If you want consider, say, paying quarterly and UW are again in 39th position, using your twisted logic then UW are in 78th position!! or with 3 sets 117th position.

You really should become a UW salesman quickly - you are cut out for the job.

The bottom line is that without question that UW have just about the most expensive gas and electricity tariffs in UK and in your case are 31.6% more expensive than the cheapest tariff.

Elderly? - living alone? - sign him/her up for UW - ideal candidate.

Well I have just been on 3 comparison websites with that information.

USwitch EDF £408.53 - UW £566.43 so UW is £157.90 - (38.7%) more

Energyhelpline EDF £409 - UW £549 so UW is £140 - (34.2%) more

Energylinx EDF £408.45 - UW £548.53 so UW is £140.08 - (34.3%) more

I have just been on the three switching sites mentioned on moneysavingexpert. Two of them recommend Scottish Power Online Energy 7 and the other recommends British Gas Web Saver 4 for my annual usage. As I am now getting between £25 and £30 per month (£26.79 last month) off my utility bills by using the Utility Warehouse pre payment card, I am paying a minimum of £7 per month less than I would for Scottish Power Online Energy 7. Because I take four services, I also get free calls to UK geographic numbers 24/7, not to mention the Nectar points in Sainsbury's and an easily understandable paper bill every month.

Detractors will not understand this, but, I basically shop the way that I always have, buying things I want or need at stores and prices that suit my requirements. I am happy saving money in a way that suits me because it is my choice.

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

That's weird - the bottom line on my UW bills proves that, for me, UW are easily the cheapest supplier of gas and electric. In fact, this month I'm paying less for my gas/electric/phone line/unlimited bb/all calls than I would pay for just the gas and electric on your 4 and a half year old FIXED tariff. And the equivalent phone/BB/calls package with your preferred telephony supplier would cost approx £45 for the month (mine's included in the £29 figure with the gas and electric). How can this be, Cardew? I'll give you a clue - it's due to an innovation that you wouldn't recognise if it bit you on the derriere...

What about that tariff i've mentioned? Do you see it on the list, or not?

If you can't discuss UW gas and electricity prices, I suggest you go and play your silly game with Carmine.
