Business Energy Claims
If you have used a broker to source energy contracts on behalf of your business, you may be entitled to compensation.
An investigation conducted by Ofgem, regulators of energy suppliers, found that Third Party Intermediaries were receiving commissions typically by way of pence per kWh or a fixed fee within standing charges without informing their respective Clients.
Could you have been victim? With the financial incentive in mind, were they acting in your business’ interest or theirs?
Ofgem have no jurisdiction to take enforcement action against brokers and therefore considered and implemented a stricter regime of suppliers in order to deter from engaging with TPI’s at the detriment of business’. You will find a link to their decision below.
Our team of experts are actively assisting businesses across the country to recover compensation for the mis-selling of their business energy contracts. Our average claim to date amounts to over £50,000.00
