Advantages: none

Disadvantages: aaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggggghhh hhhh too many

I wonder how many people are like me? Sitting at home, enjoying a nice cup of tea when there is a knock at the door and I cringe. Before I even get close to the front door I am filled with a fear knowing that I am going to be subjected to a barraging from the person on the other side.

The offender is not a baliff, or social worker, but the next in a long line of "Service Providers".

It is becoming impossible to get away from the companies who come to the door, cold calling to try and get you to sign up to their energy supplier, and you can argue all you like, but the particular supplier that day will try to persuade you that their company will charge you less, but you have to sign up there and then.

Its driving me bananas, I am becoming paranoid that they line up around the corner and come one after another.

The callers are also the most rude people in this world, they treat you like a moron, try to convince you that they know you better than you do, and make out that you are incapable of making an informed decision.

The laughable side is that when you have a problem, you can bet your life that it will take you forever to get through to someone who can help you, and even longer to get someone out to help you.

Service on your doorstep!!!! I don't think so!

Yepp, they drive me mad too - my opening gambit is to show them two year's gas and electricity readings and ask them to come back when they can show me from my own figures that they will be cheaper. That usually does the trick. You can always use www.uswitch.com to see who would be cheapest for you, and actually approach THEM - now there's a novelty!
