DWM - Marketing Team (ASDA, Watford)

The marketing team, whom I meet at ASDA Watford last week, tried to sell me British Gas products by providing wrong charges of my existing energy provider compared to BG. So, a warning to people not to fall for their marketing gimmicks and signup on the spot. Be careful and Don't Waste your Time (DWT).

Sent some kid to my private residence despite having clear signage that we don't welcome cold callers. Take your business to the high street and stop pestering people in their homes!

Hello Matthew, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience.
Our representatives should respect customers' wishes, including any clearly displayed "No Cold Callers" signage. We apologise that this was not your experience.
Your comments will be investigated internally as part of our compliance process, as this is not the standard we expect from our representatives. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.
