Recovering hidden energy commissions and identifying mis selling
Unbeknown to millions of UK businesses, they may be owed thousands of pounds due to mis-sold energy contracts. A majority of businesses regularly use the help of an energy broker (known as an intermediary or TPI’s) to act in good faith to source them the best tariff, acting in the best interests in finding an energy provider. But, this is not always the case.
Energy brokers are not regulated, this has been a concern for OFGEM for years, as not only are some brokers not providing businesses with the most suitable provider, but they are also receiving a hidden commission, on top of the commission that they told you about. In the majority of contracts that we look at, the broker is being paid on the unit of energy you use, but this has not been disclosed either by the supplier or the broker.
In some cases, customers can receive full contract rescission, meaning that their full spend across the contract term will be applied for by our litigation solicitors.
