“I just wanted to shout out to Sally Rusbatch for her help and for being a voice of clarity in a very confusing search for an energy deal. It was so nice to speak to someone who actually sounded human after speaking to various rather pushy sales agents. I feel relieved to have got a deal, and to know she is there at the end of the phone should I have difficulties going forward.”
