Understanding Mis-selling in Energy Contracts

What You Need to Know

Mis-selling occurs when energy companies fail to provide accurate and essential information to consumers regarding their contracts (especially commissions). This deceptive practice can lead customers to make uninformed decisions, often resulting in unexpected costs and unfavourable contract terms that they did not fully comprehend at the time of signing. Mis-selling not only undermines consumer confidence but can also have significant financial repercussions for households and businesses alike.

In the energy sector, mis-selling can take various forms, such as the misrepresentation of prices, the omission of vital terms and conditions, or the pressure to sign contracts hastily. Customers may find themselves bound to contracts that do not offer the value or savings that were initially promised. It is essential to scrutinise all aspects of any energy contract, including the pricing structure, cancellation terms, and additional fees that might apply.
