    A switch will normally take 4-6 weeks.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Took a few weeks for me but I did get an email eventually confirming they had swapped and asking for the meter readings.
    I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.

    Called them last night to give reads at 5pm, only on hold for 1 minute! result

    Calling scottish power and getting through is more like 1 hr!
