    sorry i was babbling. I was with eon when I switched to sainburys energy in december, I do not know what british gas has to do with sainsburys energy but it is them that called me. I didn't gave eon a meter reading when I left because they never asked for one and sainsburys energy never came to get one from the house. the electric meter is going up fast when all the elecrtic stuff is turned on but the only gas appliance in the house is the boiler and when this is on low the meter goes mad. they have both been in since we moved here 5 years ago so I don't know if they both need replacing. the £752.40 they gave me was for gas and electric for 4 months. the guy on the end of the phone just kept talking over me so didn't really get much from him when I asked constantly why british gas was calling and not sainsburys energy.

    As advised, above, BG run Sainsbury's Energy, Sainsbury have nothing to do with it operationally, it's just a branding exercise. The call centres staff sometimes forget who they're fronting for.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
  • Slightly off topic so apologies but had to get this off my chest - you would have thought a company the size of Sainsburys would at least make a decent stab at playing the energy game and install their own CS staff in the BG building, wouldn't you? It's just embarrassing that their 'customers' get a call from BG and they are not even aware that it's them that are basically administering their 'Sainsburys Energy' account.
