How to make a complaint

We promise to always try to keep things clear and easy to understand, but if something isn’t right, then tell us and we’ll jump in and try to fix things as quickly as we can. Most of the time that’ll only take a couple of days. 

Here are the steps:

 

Let us know

You can contact us directly from the website by using the help button on the bottom right of your screen or send an email to [e-mail]. If you need to speak to us just let us know and we’ll call you back. If for any reason you can’t reach us online, you can call us on 0333 016 5889 Monday to Friday 9:30am to 4:30pm, excluding bank holidays and Tuesdays when our lines close slightly earlier at 3pm.

You can also write to us at the address below, or if you’re in the area pop in and see us:

Social Energy,

Barnwood Point,

Corinium Avenue,

Barnwood,

Gloucester,

GL4 3HX

If there’s still a problem

We hope the first person handling your complaint has got to the bottom of what’s gone wrong. If you don’t agree the resolution is fair, we’ll get a fresh pair of eyes to take over. They might agree with what’s already been offered or spot something that’s been missed, either way they’ll work with you to find a solution you’re both happy with.
