Ginger Energy Ltd:
Complaint Handling Procedure
Introduction
Ginger’s business approach is to win and retain Customers through a comprehensively open and honest approach, always acting with integrity and adopting the very best industry standards.
It is our intention to prevent any circumstances where a Customer would wish to make a complaint.
We look to achieve this by ensuring that all our interactions with Customers are conducted in a fair and transparent manner and they are presented with products and services that meet their needs.
This procedure describes how Ginger Energy (Ginger) will deal with a Complaint made by a Customer.
The process described below is documented in greater detail in an internal Complaints Procedure, and the purpose of this document is to provide an overview of what will happen if a Complaint is received, and what timescales will apply.
This procedure and/or the full internal procedure (ref. OpPro_010) are available by email or post, at no charge, upon request.

Utility Re-charge Complaints
Residents wishing to raise a complaint relating to billing or customer service should address their correspondence to our customer, c/o Ginger Energy. As an agent acting on behalf of bill issuers, Ginger may respond on their behalf; however, ultimate responsibility for billing and account management remains with the bill issuer.
Each bill issuer operates under its own complaints procedure. Residents can view the relevant procedure for their development by entering their postcode in the Resident Area of our website. For clarity, all invoices sent by Ginger include the bill issuer’s business name.
