Free Energy Dispute Help for 200k UK Businesses

2nd of February 2024

In the brisk month of February 2024, we're delighted to bring you the latest news from Clear Money Claims, your trusted partner in resolving business energy disputes. The UK government, on the heels of a groundbreaking December 2023 announcement, is ushering in an era of greater support for British businesses grappling with energy supplier disputes.

Picture this: In December 2023, the government unveiled plans to extend a much-needed lifeline to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the United Kingdom. The goal? To make sure more than 200,000 businesses can now access free, impartial advice and support when dealing with energy supplier disputes. It's a bold move, and it's set to revolutionise how businesses, like yours, navigate these often treacherous waters.

 

Expanding Support for SMEs 

The government's commitment to SMEs stems from the profound understanding that disputes with energy suppliers can, and do, exact a heavy toll on businesses. Billing discrepancies, energy supply interruptions, and questionable sales practices have left many businesses in a bind. Enter the Energy Ombudsman, a trusted and impartial arbiter, poised to step in and provide the support you need.

Previously, many small businesses faced a stark choice: bear the high costs and lengthy delays of legal proceedings or struggle on, bearing the brunt of unresolved issues. Now, in February 2024, the landscape is changing. Minister for Energy Consumers and Affordability, Amanda Solloway, reiterated the government's commitment, stating, "We're expanding the reach of the Energy Ombudsman to cover an extra 200,000 businesses. They can now access free, impartial advice and resolve supplier issues without the need for costly court battles."

 

Insights and Public Support 

The government's move aligns seamlessly with Ofgem's recommendations, the vigilant guardian of Britain's electricity and gas markets. An insightful Ofgem review of non-domestic energy markets unequivocally stated that more businesses should have access to dispute resolution services through the Energy Ombudsman. A subsequent survey conducted by Ofgem revealed an astonishing 94% support for these expanded provisions from respondents spanning business organisations, consumer groups, and suppliers alike.

 

Consultation and Future Prospects

February 2024 offers a unique opportunity for stakeholders and interested parties, like you, to shape the future. The government's proposal was open for consultation until January, 2024.
