Our Complaint Resolution
Complaint resolution is one important post sale element in our business because it determines if our customer were actually satisfied how they were treated by our sales force. It is also important because our whole sales process involves transfer of sensitive information between different partners. Below fig illustrates it,
Save Commercial Energy is communicated about any complaints through 3 Channels,
1. Supplier to Aggregator Intimation
Most of the times Supplier demands all presale material within a given deadline and during that time customer could not be contacted until instructed by Supplier. As soon as Save Commercial receives a complaint we request our cloud data handler to provide all the data ASAP after which our QA team/Complaint Handling Unit reevaluates all the evidence and forwards it to the aggregator along with our formal take on it.
2. Aggregator to Save Commercial
Such complaints are directly received to aggregator or are not catered by Supplier and while customer are asked to contact the aggregator by some certain suppliers. As soon as Save Commercial receives a complaint we request our cloud data handler to provide all the data ASAP after which our QA team/Complaint Handling Unit reevaluates all the evidence and forwards it to the aggregator along with our formal take on it.

Your Options
- Upon receiving customer concerns, we formally acknowledge customer concerns.
- Customers are requested to give 5 Working Days to Save Commercial Energy during which our complaint handling unit would evaluate the evidence and our formal take on it will be sent to the customer along with all the related evidence for their own assessment.
- If the customer persists that they don’t agree with the deal based on valid grounds then:
- Save Commercial Energy goes through the Aggregator/Supplier Compliance Code issued. Our legal team then advises us if our deal stands compliant and what should be our take — either to request supplier/aggregator to release the contract,
- Or register final response to customer as a “Deadlock Letter” while keeping aggregator/supplier looped in to take care of for further action (if necessary).
- The Deadlock Letter will also contain profile & contact information of “Ombudsman”, which is approved by Ofgem – UK Energy Regulator, to independently investigate or handle disputes between energy suppliers and microbusiness consumers.
