Gas & Electricity Suppliers

Information taken from the internet in light of so many changes taking place. There has also been much effort to get people to switch contracts with the door knockers knowing names and addresses. As people enter into a contract this becomes enforceable in a court of law - UNLESS people have been pressured or coerced into a contract or missold a product. The British Law courts are so motivated to make money they have forgotten conveniently their obligation to work for justice. One they they will realise!

Deception to get people to buy a product or to change to another company might actually be a criminal offense. Considering that hundreds of lawyers here have refused to work for justice and say the system is corrupt, it is time for people to wake up!

At least people can learn what is available and shop around. It is intrusive to telephone or knock on doors! There is a warning being given here not to agree to anything being sold to you over the telephone or if someone knocks at your door. They want your signature - the canvassers get paid. Once you agree over the telephone even, you have entered into a contract.

Take notice that many service providing companies state in the start 'this telephone call is being recorded'

E.ON is one of the UK’s largest electricity and gas suppliers. Formally known as Powergen, the company was created in 1990 and was subsequently bought by German energy giant E.ON in 2002. It assumed the name of its parent company E.ON in late 2007.

Ecotricity is dedicated to building new sources of renewable energy and invest more per customer in this than all the other UK suppliers together. The more customers the company has the more investment they can make in building new renewable capacity.

First Utility is an independent utilities supplier, founded in 2008. First Utility has 100,000 customers, making it the seventh largest energy supplier in the UK after the 'Big Six'.

Good Energy is a green electricity company formed in 1999 by the Monkton Group. Good Energy is the only company to supply 100% of its electricity from renewable sources generated by wind, small-scale hydro and solar power generators located across Britain.

When the big sell is on for canvassers to sell products - actually to get people to enter and commit to another contract, at the mention of Free Electricity and Nikola Tesla people do not want to listen. The motivation for profit is extremely high here and this is why people accept man made laws for profit and even ask for their human rights to be taken away from them.

When the intelligence of the general public is reflected in the government, then we are all heading for big trouble. One day people might wake up - however there are a few mulimillionaires and billionairs hope people stay sleeping!

Not only are there deliberate price hikes in utility suppliers - the increase of taxes on food.



The top shareholders and directors of all these companies would allow greater transparency. It is unknown if the same people sit as owners or major shareholders in other companies and able to manipulate the prices and people accordingly.

Nothing is completely hidden, however sometimes you need to connect the dots to learn the truth.

BP oil leak revealed that Haliburton was involved with the cementing. Haliburton is a name that connects with Scotland although it is unknown who is who to be sure if this is actually factually related. Transocean, again a company I have not researched other than on Buzbee Law firm website shows that they had a $400 million insurance claim on their own company but asked to limit payout to $27 million after the BP spill. The people who sit as heads of these companies are employed.

What was said is that the pensions were tied to British Petrolium. If a fair an ethical system was in place, everyone would benefit. If the government were motivated to look after the people, this would show.

Earlier I was thinking about the new Archbishop of Canterbury - a former oil executive. Often I wonder if the Church of England is a Church of Profit or a Church of God because God does not impoverish people! Time will tell everything and all that is hidden that is relevant for people to know will come to the open. The British system does not prosecute war mongers or corrupt officials. They do not even prosecute perjury. Police, lawyers and judges are perverting the course of justice in my experience.



Oh well....everyone is accountable eventually even if oathtaking officials beleive they are untouchable. When they took their oath they will have said 'I swear to Almighty God.......'

The oath to God is NOT being removed from the courtroom or oath of office or Crown Coronation! They try so hard!

Peace, love and best wishes
