Got hit with this today while waiting for the braodband installers to arrive. I was assured they'd be here by 9 a.m. because I was the first appointment of the day. Then it was between 9 and noon. They arrived at 12:30 finished up at 2:30. The worst thing is them not calling to state they would be late. Most of a whole day wasted!

Well a very nice man came from Unitied Utilities to change my electric card meter which was not reading the cards so i could not put money on the meter,
today as they said they would, on time too.
i had about 6 cards with money on by the meter.
he changed the meter but its a electronic key not another card meter this time ,so i asked him about the cards he said it had nothing to do with them and i would have to get in touch with the supplier .
Then he said how much is on the cards i said about £15
he said well ring them and they will send a cheque
now on the old meter we where down to about 60p on the emergancy
anyway he showed me how to use the new key and told me where to get them charged .
as he was leaving he turned to me and said you wont need to buy electric for a while .
i looked at him

he just smiled and left i went to check the meter and we not only had full emergancy electric but he had also put £20 on the meter for me.

what a nice man

WAY HEYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!

Well my complaint paid off got a nice unexpected surprise first thing this morning [was not told or notified - must be new tactic to avoid waiting in for nowt lol]............UNITED UTILITIES!!!!!!

Just had my long awaited meter change........... &..... i got better than i bargained for not only have i gone from econ 2 split charge pre payment meter......but instead of a rate 1 pre payment meter...............EVEN BETTER I got a proper normal bill meter

so wayhey no running out of leccy & cheaper, so no need for this new pre payment card now, & already put £5 credit towards it anyway as left on old meter

So now to get a swipe payment card now & cancel offgem.
