Invisible Help Line

I am due to transfer to Sainsbury's Energy (EDF) with effect 27 September 2021 on a 12-month fixed contract.  Previously with Eon, we were paying about £79 a month (dual tariff).  We were also claiming WHD.  I have been trying for two days to contact Sainsbury's by telephone to find out if this grant will be automatically transferred or not.  As I type this, my phone is assaulting my ears with their awful muzak.  Over the past 2 days, I have wasted over two hours waiting for the call to be answered.    There is no chat line listed, no email link.   Only a letter via snail-mail,  or Twitter and/or Facebook - neither of which we use.  Add on to this the fact that our monthly dual-fuel bill has risen from £79 a month to £117 per month (in advance !).  Heaven only knows how some pensioners on a foxed State Pension will manage this winter?  Can anyone suggest a way to get to speak to one of the so-called "friendly experts" without actually visiting the company in person?
