Is The Cheap Energy Club a joke or real?

I ask here, is the MSE's so-called Cheap Energy Club a joke or does it really exist?

Over 10 days ago, I joined them, after reading a weekly MSE emailed newsletter, and subsequently posted an emailed question to the Club, but it appears after still awaiting a response, that no one seems bothered at the Cheap Energy Club, to respond.

    What was the question?

    Did you get the automated response? This would confirm they actually received the email, pending a personal reply.
  • Hi Revoraman,

    I'm sorry to hear that you didn't receive a reply to your email. We aim to respond to all of our users within 2 working days, so this sounds a little unusual. We think we may have had an intermittent technical issue with some of our replies not sending.

    Did you email us on energyclub@moneysavingexpert.com? Could you send us another email and put 'MSE Laura - forum' in the subject line, and I'll keep an eye out for this for you.

    Thanks,
    MSE Laura

    No, that's what was so baffling. Not a word, which made me wonder what was the point of joining a so-called CheapEnergyClub that cannot be bothered to answer a new members questions.

    Thanks MSE Laura. I replied to the welcome email address exactly as it was, as I did not see any other link or email address to send to. And that was on 13th March. To date, zilch!

    Will do as suggested by you. Thanks again.

    To MSE Laura

    Tried to reply to your email, but guess what? It got bounced back. Why? Have you tried to post a reply in your Cheap Energy Club emails in the place where it states 'If replying please write your comments above this line.', because that itself is a farce as it is impossible to even type a full stop above that line!!

    So, how do I reply to your email?

    Hi Revoraman,

    I've just checked and it looks as though your reply has come through to me. Sent yesterday afternoon?

    Hi MSE Laura. Glad to read your post that you indeed received my reply email. Receiving the very same email I sent you bounced back seemed rather odd to me.

    Hi MSE Laura

    Sent you another email, but that email address--'cheapenergyclub'---has no indication whether you did or did not receive an email. Please advise.

    Thank you.
