Once again we appear to have young men in the village in official looking jackets intent on getting you to switch to a different power supplier. Reports suggest they are claiming to be from either Scottish Power or e-Sure.

They are again asking to see electricity bills “just to check what tariff you are on”. Our advice, as before, is not to give them sight of your bills unless you really want to switch or you may find you have been switched to a different supplier without your consent.

And if you are tempted to switch supplier you might like to read this report of what happened to a villager who did let one of them into his home in February this year.
