Just had Stan at my door who was very helpful, I’m usually very dubious about door to door sellers but honestly he put me at ease and was very lovely and understanding. Obviously the change over hasn’t happened yet so can’t say for sure if this is a big impact for our gas and electric yet but I’ve been switched over from OVO to British Gas and saving £33 a month😮

Hello Paige, thank you for your wonderful feedback. We’re delighted to hear that Stan was helpful, friendly, and understanding, and that he put you at ease despite your initial reservations about door-to-door sales.
It’s great to know that he explained the switch clearly and that you’re expecting to save around £33 a month. We hope everything goes smoothly with your changeover and that you’re pleased with the outcome.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We really appreciate your kind comments, and we’ll be sure to pass them on to Stan.
