To whom it may concern,

Re: Mis-selling complaint

I am writing about an energy contract that I feel I have been mis-sold.

In my opinion, I was mis-sold the contract because: I was told the tariff price was cheaper than our current suppliers but this isn’t the case. I agreed to the contract on 10 June and found this out a week later.

Please reply in writing within 10 working days.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

Sam Hoolin
