Good Energy says customers can complain through an online complaints form, by phone, or through its general contact form, and that it will aim to call the customer first to put things right. It lists its phone team's opening hours but does not give a response deadline on this page. - If it is not resolved
- Energy Ombudsman
- When you can escalate
- At least 8 weeks since first raising the issue with the supplier, or on receiving a deadlock letter.
- Checked
- 4 October 2026 (company pages and scheme websites). Rules and pages change, so check the official page before you rely on this.
Good to know: Good Energy separates complaints about energy supply and feed-in tariffs from complaints about solar installation and other services provided by Good Energy Services.
What to Do, Step by Step
- Gather your evidence. Order or account number, dates, receipts, screenshots, emails and what was said on calls.
- Complain in writing using the route above, and ask for a complaint reference. Say what went wrong, what you want, and by when (14 days is reasonable). Our free letter templates can write it for you.
- Keep a record. Note dates, names and reference numbers of every contact. Use email or a form where you can, so you have proof.
- Ask for a final response if you are not getting anywhere, then follow the escalation route above.
- Use other routes if they apply. If the company does not fix it, take it to the free ombudsman or ADR scheme named above. Your bank or card provider may help if you paid by card (Section 75 or chargeback). The Citizens Advice consumer service gives free advice and can pass a report to Trading Standards.
Useful to Know
- Take meter readings and photos, and keep your bills.
- Ask for a complaint reference.
- If the supplier is at fault for a back-bill, you should not normally be charged for energy supplied more than 12 months before you were told about the error.
- If you are struggling to pay, tell them early and ask about support. Do not ignore it.
