Often the letting agents have a commission based deal with these sorts of companies. You've probably signed for it deep within the small print of your tenancy agreement. Remember that it only benefits the letting agent and provider - it's not actually there to help you so probably won't be the best deal/service.
I once had my electricity transferred to a totally different provider through this sort of thing without having any idea that it was happening and it was a pest to get it back again. I'd double check your agreements or maybe give them a call to check they won't just proceed anyway whether they hear from you or not as unfortunately that's what happened to me. |
