    I need help!............

    We had a problem with EDF last year when we moved in to our new place. We signed up to them as our new supplier without any problems. Then we got the first bill and it was way above what it should have been.

    After many phone calls and being told it was correct, nothing they could do etc we discovered they'd charged us for M³ instead of the correct Ft³. So being charged over 3x what it should have been.:eek:

    We had to insist they checked and rechecked as they were adamant it was not their problem.

    Good luck.

    haha! Tesco FB will get fed up with me the day. I'm now complaing about price checkers that have been removed from stores. Only polite since another person brought the subject up ;)

    I haven't got any price checks on the way, but I will certainly have my two-penneth worth on the scanners - thanks for the idea.

    I think that's what has happened to me.....(but I think the mistake is other way around Ft instead of M ? ) if its your way then I oew them even more !!!!!

    I wonder how many others have this issue and think its their boiler rather than just a billing error!??

    sorry will shut up now...............pizza anyone????:beer::beer::beer:

    Hi everyone. My attempts to keep up failed miserably! I did for about 2 days after my last post and then haven't been able to do it since. I have lost my mojo completely! :eek:
    Hope everyone is well anyway x

    theres no rush to catch up Beki , just pop in when you can and ask whats happening etc .
    As many of us on here will testify it's great to get away from the bunch of gas bags that tongue lash on this thread .

    Ok I'll get my coat and go live behind HC's sofa ...incoming !

    Good Aftermoon elite,

    Just a little reminder that the Whsmith's gift cards, that we got a few months ago expire on Saturday 30th June 2012

    Also I did a conditional spend yesterday and I bought 10 wench purple
    juice and they did not compare today!


    Phew!! Had me worried then for a second as I still have some of these to spend.
    Mine has no printed expiry date on it so lasts 2 years from the date of issue (Feb 2014)
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
