What a mental case. All we need on here are you and Jackwhite then we’d have just two mega-experts on everything (inside their own heads) 😂 Edited November 17, 2023 by Cueey Lewis And The News 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two-lane Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 The group of people who have been the most spendthrift, wasteful, profligate, extravagant, are the politicians and Civil Servants. And they have not been doing it with their own money, but with mine. I was not aware that Manx Gas could disconnect without a court order. Which MHKs have been attempting to introduce that law here? When it came to changing the rules so that they did not pay for car parking, they were pretty quick. I thought I'd just throw that in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8th richest nation on earth (or whatever is/was claimed) and yet more than a few people can't afford to keep on top of their energy bills and are being cut off while Govt decline to intervene. "We've never had it so good", proclaims Stu Peters in another thread. The brain-washing clearly works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred the shred Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Rob is on the job , bless, anyone living in Onchan threatened with disconnection is invited to contact him and he will take the matter up personally with Manx Gas. At least he tries to help and he is always contactable. I have not agreed with some of his decisions but he puts the hours in to be fair. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Island Energy are going to back down, certainly to pleading, bluster or threats from a MHK? Island Energy are determined to disconnect, regardless of the negative publicity. This is something that CM Cannan should be dealing with, but I can see Island Energy well and truly stuffing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you want these people who owe £000s and have ignored all attempts to agree repayments programmes should continue to get free gas? Who do you expect to pay for the gas? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also appear to be threatening some customers who already have payment plans in place to reduce their arrears if some of the information circulating is true. OFT should certainly be looking into that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the charity work Banker claims to do with vulnerable people who are struggling with utility bills I’m sure he’ll tell you that it’s down to them all buying scratch cards and fags 😂 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OFT should certainly be looking into that. Island Energy are incompetent charlatans, with the exception of the actual shop staff who you're not allowed to talk to any more. Jo Cox is the face of the company, and that says it all really. I can understand why the government have resisted calls to nationalise this steaming pile of shit, as that would cost them (us) an absolute fortune from now until doomsday. I wonder if they would instead consider covering some or all of the cost of every single domestic gas customer converting to oil, which would presumably be (a) cheaper for them/us and (b) a one off spend. Also (c) the perfect two fingers up to Island Energy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to remember that in the World of @Banker, all these people's financial priority has been given to fags, phones, drugs, booze, hairdos and nail jobs. There isn't enough time or crayons in the world to explain things to Banker. Edited November 18, 2023 by Non-Believer Typo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do you expect to pay for the gas? The account holder/customer will pay of course, recouped via prepayment meter. Disconnecting them isn’t the answer, especially as others have alluded, there are issues with the billing system, and meter reading is an issue.
