Leaving Utility Warehouse but......
Firstly I'd like to say Hi (I have been a lurker for ages but have now registered yay!)
I'm thinking of leaving UW after going onto a couple of comparison sites (this one included) and realise we can save nearly £500 a year!
The only thing is... We have a mobile contract (24 month with a smart phone) with them. Would this be a problem if we want to leave or can we keep mobile with them, but get gas and electric elsewhere?
Thanks

No problem - had a gas/ elec/ phone / broadband - moved gasand elec to OVO in the summer without exit penalty and then phone/ broadband to Plusnet , got the termination wrong and paid an extra months rentalNever pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0
