This guy just came around from 'Eastern Electric'. He had a badge and a Eastern electric jacket on. He started giving me all this flannel about I had been identified as a premier customer, blah blah, he could now put me on an excellent tarrif.
I said "I am not with you, I am with Powergen", he says "I wont change your company just tarrif" then goes on and on trying to blind me with science and really pushy. I told him I didnt want to change suppliers and he said this little classic
"you wont change companies, you will just be a different logo on your bills!!"
He must have thought I was a muppet!! Anyway I told him to come back when dh was home later. In the meantime I phoned my gas company to ask them - and they said he definantly wants to change you we dont work with Eastern elecric they are another company"
Anyway - I went out just now and he was on my street and I said to him "I am sorry but I have spoken to DH and we dont want to change suppliers" and he had a right go at me! Saying we wouldnt be and it was just a different logo, he was really shouting at me! So I said I was going to phone his company up and he started haveing a go saying that I had it all wrong and I didnt know what I was talking about and started giving me a lecture about how gas comes down pipes!!!
I feel really cheesed off and think I am going to complain. I know it sounds silly, but he wasx quite threatening. Excuse any spelling errors I am cheesed off!
