i once came home to no electricity - so no heat, light or ability to cook

I phone N-power, 40mins of hold music later and I fucked off to the pub, cancelled them as soon as possible after that.

I enjoy telling those people who sell N-Power in the street this story very loudly in front of potential customers.

We came home once to find no electric and we didn't have gas so no heat light food ect.
With a newborn baby. We phoned and were told "some point in the next 24 hours" We asked if they could be more specific and they said no. I said "so you could turn up at 3 in the morning?" "yes" she replied. I told them we had a newborn and she said yes that's why you get within 24 hours others have to wait longer. I sent My wife and newborn daughter to her mothers and stayed in the house with no heat and no light in the winter. They took 2 days to get there. When the engineer arrived he was so disgusted at how long it took them to arrange a call out for us he used his portable key meter thing to put £50 on our key. Turns out he lived at the other end of the street and was on call, they could have had him there in 5 minutes. Never ever use EDF they're cunts
