Off Topic Things that aren't worth a new thread ...

I'm the same Monty. I was originally with SSE and moved over to OVO on the 25 November - (OVO apparently had bought out SSE business) They charged me, for my usage on the 25th, £27.18 for electricity and £35.14 for Gas. Some knobhead at OVO said it was the correct amount and after i asked him to direct me to someone who knew what the **** they were talking about, he told me it was a migration issue and that he will pass my issue to the migration team. Hope to have it resolved by early next week. These companies are making vast profits and its the customer that is suffering and the shareholders are laughing

Just won my case with eon £ 650 in credit didn’t wand to give it back. Wrote the CEO said if the money isn’t in my account by 5pm Friday (Tuesday now ) I will cancel my dd and wait until my money was used up then leave. Within one day 3 separate emails letting me know they were dealing with it, money in my account in 3 days.

Just checked mine (bulb) and £854.45 in credit....and they recommend i put my monthly payment up!!
Currently pay £240, and with government payment of £67 means £307 per month going into account. I submit monthly meter readings, so know exactly what I use each month. 20th October to 20th November, gas and electric, plus vat, came to £169.
They want to put it up to £260.
Hadaway and ****e.

For the last week or so our daily yes daily use has been £10
Not every day but a few

Is that daily consumption, or is over 50% of it the daily charge? Criminal that they upped the daily charge pro rata with the wholesale cost of the product - we buy the same amount of the same product via the same cables and infrastructure

I thought I would just lower my direct debit but then you find out with eon the maximum you can lower it is 10%, twats, just cancel your dd mate, you will find the other arm of the company is spot on. Last e mail from them, sorry to hear you have cancelled your dd could you please give us a reading at the end of the month, we will let you know what you owe us and then pay us by bacs within 14 days. They could of done that at the beginning but they act like twats.

It’s bloody terrible mate, people having to choose wether to be warm or eat, I live in a bubble up here don’t know anyone struggling all real rich bastards around me. All seem to have index linked pensions. Funnily enough I was talking to the lad whose bought the house next door £820,000 and he’s spent over £300,000 upto now on it ( he Iives in the village) he said he won’t be in until August. I asked him what’s he doing for xmas, he says we can’t afford to do anymore on the house at the minute we are skint, and then he says we are off to Australia for a month over Xmas get a bit of warmth, me, oh! righto

We are also in credit to the tune of £856 with EON, but some will get soaked up during the winter months no doubt.
Next price rise is April so should be putting your DD up until then if you are in credit.

I have always been disturbed by the amount of credit customer like us build up. Maybe we should get a dividend when the shareholders get theirs.

They’ve conned you into thinking that, just take it out and put in a savings account and put your dd money in the same savings account every month, then just pay your bill from that account every month, you get the interest instead of them

Yeah been paying £110 per month direct debit for a few years now for both electric and gas
Now it will be at lest £300 per month for both

 

[Vincemac]

My £200 per month rise will come out my pension
How the hell will people on benifits pay that rise when the have no money now

She certainly wants her pound of flesh.
Come on lass, where’s your British stiff upper lip?
The old lady apologised and retired. So point it out and laugh it off rather than being offended.
Obviously there will be a lot of old racist people around the monarchy. I’m sure Charlie knows he has to clear them out and hopefully he will.

Turns out her name was actually Mary Headley, not Ngozi Fulani until she decided that was more African and suited her 'charity'.

Turning up with her new name on her chest complete with lion's teeth necklace, dreadlocks, beads and leopard print night just make an 80 year old think her origins could actually be slightly further than Hackney. I'd bet good money the old lass has been to Africa ten times more often than Ms Fulani.

I've no doubt this charity takes in a fair wedge but wouldn't know how much she pockets herself. No doubt a bit of front page publicity would boost the coffers before Christmas.

She's quite an operator this lass. Claims the entire evening was a traumatised induced blur ...

... yet manages to give the media a word for word account.

Either that or she'd started recording the conversation in advance

Making the most of an opportunity presented to her?

1st day on hols. Hope it improves. My wife said flight was at 10am. Happy with that as flights to the Canaries are normally mid afternoon. She was wrong however. Flight was at 8am. This resulted in a Verstappen like dash to get there. After getting on plane me thinking yes I am on my way. Wrong French f*cking air traffic control delayed us by 45 mins. I'd now like to refer you to the earlier flight times and the F1 impression to get there. Due to this I had not completed my morning constitutionals (if that is the correct word). On said delayed flight I could feel constant rumblings but did not dare enter the toilet and give birth to a Newcastle supporter fearing that upon completion the whole plane would smell like a Yeti's hut or an African Witch doctors ju-ju bag. Eventually landed and proceeded in a brisk manner to the toilets walking with my legs only opening from the knees down to get to the cubicles onltyto find both mens and womens were heaving. This is where it got dangerous. My buttocks were clamped that tight anyone or anything would have struggled to get a Rizla paper in. Got bus, got to hotel(1st drop off thankfully), checked in and as I got out of the lift and placed the card to my room my whole world fell out. Well not quite but my arse could hold back no longer and I followed thru. Not withstanding this as I dropped my trolleys and sat on the toilet it was like letting the pigeons out. Without wanting to be to graphic I hope you understand what I am referring to there. Thankfully I thought that was it. No new shower room that has just been completed in the hotel. Well guess who managed to flood it. Yup you have guessed it. Sorry for all my ramblings there and hopefully tomorrow will be a better day
