Complaint Principles
1. When a complaint is received via a third party i.e., a consumer advice service (such as Consumer Futures or Citizen Advise Consumer Service), Central Power (Bnorth) Ltd) have processes to adequately deal with the matter through this channel.
2. When a complaint was received at the Office of the UIA, and it is unclear from the content that Central Power (Bnorth) Ltd) has had the opportunity to deal with the issues, then the Office of the UIA will have passed the complaint to us to be handled. A record of this will have been made and we will deal with the complaint as from b) above.
3. If you are not satisfied that your complaint has been resolved prior to the 1st of December 2022 you may refer the complaint to the Office of the UIA to be dealt with under its Code of Practice and Disciplinary Procedure. This can be found at https://uia.org.uk/code-of-practice.
Alternatively, you can raise your complaint directly with the supplier concerned, informing them that you have attempted to resolve the complaint with us in the first instance.
