Supply Area Confusion

I live in the "Manweb Area" and at my previous house Scottish Power used to provide electricity and the gas was actually calor gas bottles.

In our new house (Jun 2004) I think SP said they don't invoice our area (which is still Manweb area) so we went with BG for dual fuel.

Anybody know why this would be?

When I use the comparisaon sites they always assume I have SP for electricity when I type my postcode in and give quotes for SP.
I like the look of SP's capped tariff but when I go on their website it says it cvan't offer me any savings so ggodbye !!
