Recommendation 33
33
Exploitative practices rampant in non-domestic energy market, targeting resource-poor business owners.
Conclusion
We are greatly concerned by exploitative practices in the non-domestic energy market, especially instances of mis-selling and pressure selling, as well as excessive deposits and out-of-contract rates. These practices exploit resource-poor business owners who often lack the time and knowledge to procure a good energy deal. (Conclusion, Paragraph 116)
