Hi
I had the local npower rep round on Thursday trying to lure me back to them. (Dispite having my no callers, official police notice displayed :naughty: )After me stating I decline, as when I change back, suprisingly 2 weeks later the fees go up, I was informed their prices are fixed & they can't do that. I stated fixed prices means me paying extra for the price to be fixed. No No No was the answer.
I still declined by saying I keep an eye thing through Uswitch & I was informed that they are not trustworthy :eek: , as they are sponsered & whoever sponsers them, gets the best rate displayed. Is this true? & if so, Is there anysite, company out there that gives results on their merritts & not bribes, contracts or discounts.
KIND REGARDS
KAZZYBEE :hello:

    U Switch get payed commission when you use them to switch to another supplier. Thats why you won't see the likes of Equipower/Equigas displayed unless you specify social tarrifs.
    Best bet is to try a number of switching sites as recommended elsewhere on this site.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    I've never trusted UScam, usually use other comparision sites.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!
    (OK my English isn't great, the sciences, maths & IT are my strong points!)

    Use several of them then have a look on Quidco once you done comparison as some pay you cashback rather than let them keep in for you
