Regular water is so irregular
Review of Ofwat by makro74

Advantages: Public body,
Disadvantages: Difficult to get hold of, water companies who speak them

Since I am passionate about services provided to the people, I thought I'd stumble upon writing about (following on from my earlier Severn Trent review) the Water Services Regulations Authority or OFWAT. Before, I go into this, I was actually suprise ... Read review

Advantages: None

Cheap at first but watch out for price increases
Review of EDF Energy by Keelar

Advantages: Good customer service, online bills, plenty of nectar points
Disadvantages: Price increases

I notice no-one has reviewed EDF recently so I thought I would add my thoughts. We switched to EDF over 2 years ago when we moved home, and I'd used a couple of price comparison websites and EDF/SWEB came up top every time, so I thought it was my only ... Read review

Not just hot air - British Gas
Review of British Gas by makro74

Advantages: Large company, synergy, many products offered.
Disadvantages: Price hikes, deparments don't talk to each other

British Gas - part of Centrica has had a lot of bad publicity since it was a private monopoly and competition opened up in 1996. Since then British Gas has been trying to improve its image. Customer Service used to be apalling, customers used to wait ... Read review

good review, british gas website is pretty good you dont have to deal with the customer service, you can get most stuff sorted by seanobolg
Good review. British gas are the epitome of the capitalist economy; high prices being very regressive, whilst fat cat bosses chomp on the huge bosses at Centrica (£2bn in 2007). Thank god gas prices are comming down after the Olympics in Beijing. ~tmj~ by djtmj

Quick review of Npower
Review of Npower by D-Scott

I have had no end of problems with npower, in every case the problems have resulted in many fruitless calls to customer service who often lie and will even disconnect you if they can't be bothered to sort out your problem or if it's close to closing time. I would not recommend npower to anyone - current statistics show they are now the worst supplier in terms of complaints made against them - see http://www.energywatch.org.uk/help_and_advice/supplier_performance/displayg raph.asp?bar=total
