Regular water is so irregular
Review of Ofwat by
makro74
Advantages: Public body,
Disadvantages: Difficult to get hold of, water companies who speak them

Before, I go into this, I was actually suprise ...

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 ...

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 ...

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
