Has an Energy Broker Demanded Commission for a Contract That Never Went Live?
If your business is being perused for commission payments for an energy contract that did not do live... Energy Solicitors can help you.
Commission Claims for Failed Energy Contracts
Energy brokers are increasingly pursuing businesses for commission payments where energy supplier contracts have failed to go live. These claims may be brought directly by the energy brokers themselves or by third‑party companies acting on their behalf, such as PreAction and, more recently, SGS Enforcement.
Such claims are often framed as allegations of breach of contract, with brokers relying on vague, unclear, or potentially unfair contractual terms to demand compensation for alleged loss of revenue. In most cases, the claimed “loss” relates to commission payments the broker would have received had the energy supply contract gone live.
We have seen claim amounts range from just a few hundred pounds to over £150,000.
