Stay away from this company
Stay away from this company, they don't look after your needs, the only thing they are after is massive commission. They also put me in a pass through contract, which is going to be detrimental to my business. Works out at approx 45p kwh. They use terminology that makes it sound as if your getting a good deal, but its quite the opposite!

Hi Philip,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate all feedback whether positive or negative.
As you will be aware you originally raised your alleged issues with GEABs complaints department who, after investigation, determined that you had correctly and clearly been advised of the product type and contract details. They came to the conclusion that you had not been mis-sold your contract.
Following this you have since raised your complaint with both the supplier direct and The Energy Ombudsman and after a full investigation both supplier and TEO came to the same conclusion that you had been provided with a clear explanation of the product type and contract details, and that you had not been mis-sold your contract.
GEAB regrets that you feel you as though you have not had the best experience, however everything was clearly explained to you and you made an informed decision from there to proceed.
Kind Regards,
GEAB
Friendly
Friendly, helpful agents. Unfortunately, there were problems with the e-signing aspect of the process and I had to go through it 3 times. It's all sorted out now.

Save money by avoiding The Green Energy Advice Bureau Ltd
I signed, in good faith, for a 3 year electric contract with Engie which was brokered by The Green Energy Advice Bureau. I unfortunately found that I was being charged around £8,500 more the any other supplier over the 3 year contract. When I complained they didn't want to know. It cost me £3,480 in fees to cancel the contract. Green Energy are con men seeking to rip off customers.

Dear Roy,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that you are unhappy with your experience and appreciate you sharing your concerns.
We did previously review the matter in detail and worked with the Energy Ombudsman, who concluded that the contract was agreed correctly at the time. When the agreement was put in place, the rates reflected the market conditions then, and all pricing and terms were explained prior to acceptance. We understand how frustrating it can be to see different pricing become available later, particularly given the volatility of the energy market. The cancellation fees applied were in line with our Terms & Conditions following the early termination of the agreement.
We regret that the situation led to dissatisfaction and thank you for taking the time to raise your concerns. Your feedback is important to us and helps us continue to review and improve how we support our customers.
Kind regards,
GEAB
Daily hassling to sign contracts

Good afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations. As a trusted energy consultancy, we’re always looking to learn and improve, and your comments help us do that.
We have reviewed the comments above and would like to address a couple of points.
We have only been able to find on one occasion an agent of GEAB’s called you last week, and the previous week only two days that week did an agent speak directly with you.
The conversations were respectful and informative or alternatively were checking in due to you having had prices for around a fortnight. Prices are taken from a live market and are subject to potentially change on a daily basis.
When you explained you no longer had the time, our agent thanked you and ended the communication.
Furthermore, your review comments to avoid using our services but you asked our agent to call you back in 6 months to look at contracting again.
If you’re open to discussing this further, please contact our Account Management Team on 0191 303 7750 and we’ll be happy to help.
Kind regards,
GEAB

The contract shown was only for one a/c but totally different to quotes.
They accepted the error and have corrected the contract to my satisfaction.
