    That's probably the thing you should focus on. THEY PRIDE THEMSELVES ON BEING THE EASIEST TO TALK TO.

    Anyway.
    can we get a preferred energy supplier thing? I think it's
    these guys

    (100% both?)

    And
    which internet provider do I want?
    I just want a fast internet line. If that means I have to buy a phone line too, to get a decent price, so be it.
    I DO NOT WANT TELLY THOUGH.

    All much of a muchness really IMO. Unless you're into heavy online gaming then I don't think you need top-end speeds offered. Go with whoever's the cheapest over the contract. I switched to SSE Broadband as they offer 1-month rolling contracts (currently selling-up and don't want to start a 12-18month contract) - The Scottish chap I signed up over the phone with sounded well happy.

    I really don't utility/insurance companies though - I understand that they prey on the lazy, but surely they should reward existing/long-term customers, no? I'm 'treated' to at least a £100 car insurance premium hike every year unless I shop around. My £11 mobile phone contract hasn't changed in about 5 years...It's all just so tiresome.
