Is Your Business Paying Hidden Fees for Energy? You Could Be Owed Thousands!

Across the UK, thousands of businesses are now realising they may have been quietly overcharged by their energy suppliers. Not through incorrect billing, but through hidden broker commissions built into their contracts without their knowledge.
If your business signed an energy contract through a third-party broker, you could be affected. Many of these deals include inflated unit rates, where the broker's fee is added into the price you pay for electricity or gas. In most cases, these fees are never explained or disclosed.
At Clear Charge Claims, we are investigating hundreds of contracts where suppliers paid large commissions to brokers, while businesses were left completely in the dark. The result is years of overpayments that could now be recovered.
Energy Suppliers Under Investigation
One of the most common names we come across is SSE Business Energy. But they are not the only one.
We are currently reviewing claims involving:
British Gas
EDF
Opus Energy
TotalEnergies
Haven Power
Drax
E.ON Next
SSE Business Energy
+ Many more
The pattern is often the same. A broker offers a deal that appears competitive. The business signs. The supplier pays the broker a commission. The cost is quietly included in the rate charged to the customer, who never receives a breakdown or disclosure of that fee.
Over the length of the contract, this can result in thousands of pounds in additional costs.
Could Your Business Be Affected?
You may be entitled to a refund or financial redress if:
You used a broker to arrange your energy deal
You were not clearly told how much commission was paid
Your contract started at any time in the last ten years
Your rates seemed higher than expected
You never received a full breakdown of your charges
Even if your contract has ended, you may still have a valid claim.
