“We have been clients of MDG Group for around 10 years having met Douglas at a networking meeting. Until that time we had not engaged utility consultants before and to a certain extent we were a bit hesitant. Having chatted things over with Douglas we were put at ease with the simple arrangements and so we engaged them for gas and electricity supply. The extra purchasing power of the group has enabled us to make significant savings on our utility bills over the last decade without any of the hassle of the market research involved. Changing utility suppliers is now a simple process and MDG are very diligent at chasing up new and old suppliers therefore enabling a smooth, seamless transition from one supplier to the next, all we have to do is final readings! We are very satisfied with the levels of customer service at MDG and they have proven themselves to be a proactive and professional company with pleasant and knowledgeable staff. We are happy in the knowledge that MDG have negotiated the best suppliers and the best prices not readily available on the open market. This has freed up time to enable us to concentrate on our own business clients and the rewards that that brings.
We have been delighted with the service provided by MDG and would have no hesitation in recommending them to any prospective customers.”

“Sidey Ltd. have been clients of MDG Group for 3 years. We operate on multiple sites using a number of utility suppliers and rather than Sidey management taking time out to monitor and review a plethora of rate options, all at different times, the MDG team take control of this for us using their market expertise, and advise on best deals accordingly. They monitor all of our gas and electricity contracts and have also advised on mobile telephone arrangements. With MDG’s help, we have recently approved the replacement of our landline telephone system offering significant functionality improvements and cost savings.
A very effective, efficient and friendly local partner”

“The team at MDG Group have taken over the management of our electricity contracts and quickly identified huge savings that could made by using their consultancy service. One bit of admin I was extremely happy to give up was the calls and discussions with various energy suppliers. They were able to access much lower prices than what we had been offered, and have taken away the stress and hassle of renewals by managing every aspect of the energy procurement process. Their customer service has been invaluable to us, not only from having a dedicated account manager but also providing assistance when applying for a VAT reduction as a registered charity. I would have no hesitation in recommending MDG Group and will continue to use their services.”

“The Blairgowrie Golf Club have worked with MDG since 2010, during which time we have made significant savings on Gas, electricity and telephony. More importantly MDG have provided a research and advisory service that is not available through individual companies or groups who bulk buy for clubs in general. When we have encountered problems with utility services or more recently when we changed telephony suppliers, MDG dealt with the problems entirely to the expected resolution. The time and money saved by the club owing to the professionalism and dedication of MDG is considerable. I would advise any club or business who is looking to review their utility services to contact MDG and let them see what they can do for you.”

AJ Allan (Brechin) Ltd
“We have been a customer of MDG Group for around 5 years now and during that time, have found them to be nothing other than very helpful and reliable. We were always a bit sceptical about using a consultancy service but since using MDG, we have had no hesitation in recommending them to customers of ours to help them source more economic and better priced electricity supplies.”
Alistair Melrose
Director, AJ Allan (Brechin) Ltd.
“We have been clients of MDG for many years and find the service they provide to be excellent. They look after our Electricity, Gas and Water contracts in a very professional but friendly manner.
By leaving these contracts in the hands of the experts, the time involved in comparing the many deals available along with keeping an eye on contract end dates etc can be spent elsewhere on our own business.
I would not hesitate to recommend Allan and the team at MDG – they WILL save you time AND money.
Happy to discuss the service they offer in more detail with anyone who wishes to call.”
John MacLeod
Director, Lawrence of Kemnay

Our initial concerns over entrusting our utility buying to a third party were soon overcome by the professionalism of MDG and we have found them to be 100% trustworthy.

“Charlie Taylor Hair & Beauty have been clients with MDG Group since July 2012. At around that time Alastair Taylor (Director) met Douglas Reid at a P & K Council Conference and was extremely interested in the concept of what MDG Group actually did. A meeting was arranged and as a result an excellent relationship with them began. MDG look after all our utilities, Gas, Electricity, Telecoms and Water. They are a really friendly bunch, always helpful, very professional at all times and more importantly save us time and money. If you are looking to take the strain away from renewal dates, discrepancies with bills, spending endless time finding the right deal then we would highly recommend you contact them. We certainly don’t regret it!”

“I have used MDG Group for over 8 years to negotiate my supply contracts in Electricity, Gas, Telecoms and Water. They have generated significant savings and have given me some great advice which has helped me get myself out of a few unfavourable contract situations over the years. The biggest bonus is that they have freed up a lot of my time to concentrate on my core businesses. I no longer have to worry about submitting contract terminations and shopping around for best contract rates. At renewal time I completely trust their timely advice and recommendations.
I use their services for all 3 of my businesses and cannot recommend them enough. They have saved me time and effort as well as money”

We don’t work with companies we work with people and for a friendly efficient service you will be hard placed to find better. Always pro-active to find the best prices, having dealt with MDG Group for over 10 years, we find them to be a first class business delivering a first class service.
Christine Cuthbert
Meadownet Limited
We are a very small 5 bed Country Hotel with pub attached. Keeping outgoings down as much as possible is essential to us. We have been using the services of MDG Group for a couple of years now. I would thoroughly recommend them. The best deals around handpicked to suit our type of business. No stress for us in having to deal with electricity companies if anything should be inaccurate on the billing…MDG Group do it all for us. Having had a particularly expensive and nasty experience in the past with one particular energy company I cannot tell you how much I value this part of the service. I just relax – knowing that I have the best deal available and let MDG Group do the rest.

I have been a client of MDG Group for 7 years after they were recommended by my accountant. They have been used for sourcing my electricity supplies and I have had no issues with using this consultancy service.
At MDG I have a friendly dedicated account manager, who checks the monthly electric invoices, towards the end of contract serves the termination notice on our supplier and negotiates new contracts from a number of different suppliers. The options are presented to me outlining the unit cost of each. This takes the hassle out of renewal dates, chasing quotations and has provided access to deals which might not have been available.
Over the years I have always found MDG helpful,professional and very cost effective.
I have no hesitation in recommending MDG Group to other companies.
