in Energy
When the email came proclaiming the new club I thought at last a site that would be true on comparing energy costs.
The sites that existed before hand appeared to offer savings but when you looked further it did not appear to be the case.The headline savings melting into nothing when you approached the energy companies direct.Even if there were savings hanging on for the call centres to answer ........green sleeves option 1 .......option 4 were likely to all be used up.
"Thank you for calling XXXXX my name isn't really Derek,Mark,Mary or whatever else I tell you.....in case you want to call back ~~~~~How may I misunderstand you and p@ss you off today........."
Anyway rant over on call centres.
The perception and that's as important as the truth is that the old switching sites got commissions for the energy companies and it was all a bit dodgy .
How could just inserting your postcode result in a massive annual saving by switching to RIP OFF ENERGY LTD owned by overseas lads who get others to knock on your door.Together with the email telling me that a little old lady in Nigeria has left me $500,000,000 only need to send $5,000 deposit I have hit the jackpot.
Back to reality 2013 and the new Energy Club.I enter my details with care double checking and eagerly press the Enter Key.Bingo there are a number of suppliers who apparently can save me over 60% off my current combined Leckie and Gas Bills.
Whilst I would like to hope this would be the case I really doubt it.
I am currently with The Utility Warehouse (not scammers) who Which magazine continually rate as good value.
I have read the detail on the website which sounds kosher but can this really be.
Anyone else used the site and found the pot of gold......
MARTIN IS THE SITE OK or has Moneysupermarket.con.......intervened?
Thanks in advance to anyone replying
