Small claims can be used for straightforward disputes involving smaller amounts of money, usually up to ยฃ10,000.

You might consider making a small claim if you are trying to get compensation or money back for things like:

โ€ข A faulty product

โ€ข A refund you are owed

Before making a claim, it is important to understand the process, the potential costs and whether it is the right option for your situation.

Ofgem has announced that the Energy Price Cap will increase by 4%* from 1st October (*For a typical dual fuel household getting electricity and gas from the same supplier under a single contract, paying by Direct Debit).

If you are on a fixed rate energy tariff, the change to the price cap will not affect you while your fixed deal applies.

If you are on a standard variable tariff, it could be worth checking whether switching supplier or choosing a different tariff could save you money.

Before you scan, take a moment to check:
