We'll make every effort to get your complaint sorted within a day of getting it. But sometimes it can take a little longer.
If you're a micro business and we haven't been able to sort things out within 8 weeks, or we can't agree a way forward with you (we call this 'deadlock'), we'll write and let you know you have the right to refer your complaint to the Energy Ombudsman.
You don't have to accept their decision, but if you do, we'll act on what they say - whether that's us saying sorry, explaining what's gone wrong, fixing the problem or even paying you compensation.
Alternatively, you can also contact Citizens Advice. For independent energy advice and support.
If you're not a micro business, you may wish to seek independent legal advice.

The Energy Ombudsman helps to sort out disputes between brokers and their customers. Their service is free to use and they're totally independent. They don't take sides and their decisions are based only on the information they have.
You don't have to accept their decision, but if you do, your broker will act on what they say - whether that's them saying sorry, explaining what's gone wrong, fixing the problem or even sometimes paying you compensation.
If you're not a micro business, you may wish to seek independent legal advice.
