Eon Assumed Contract

I realise I am intruding here but I do not think you can (legally) perform a credit check without the data subject's consent - without exception
. Or are you saying that "deemed contract" terms include that consent?
I am also puzzled that it is possible to perform a credit check without a date of birth, and in the case of a data subject having just moved to a new address, without knowledge of prior residency up to 3 years.
Your latest post raises some concerns with me, and I suspect also with Terrylw1. I thought we had already established that you cannot decline a deemed contract, or enforce entry to install a prepayment meter without a warrant.
I dare E.ON to face the consequences of applying for a warrant when the customer's (deemed) account was in good order.
Absolutely Jalexa, and DVardysShadow.
I challenged this in a previous post because I know you can't make a site "shipper less" and their is a SLC to cover suppliers going in liquidation under the "supplier of last resort" policy.
I've recently read through the SLC's regarding domestic and business contract terms to comment on a couple of re went threads about business supplier domestic customers...and it covers this area.
It does have a clause buried at the end that says a supplier can decide they don't want a customer. But how? Its not possibl for a supplier to physically do it in the MRA or BSC processes. The old fashioned way would be to "manage" them out with very poor rates or PPM's, but try getting a warrant for this and tariffs being made uncompetitive comes along with unique scenarios with complex meter types.:rotfl: It's better to live 1 year as a tiger than a lifetime as a worm...but then, whoever heard of a wormskin rug!!!:rotfl:0 -
Edf did ask me for d.o.b but they dont do a credit check, as least when I switched to the 3 months ago0
