West Sussex, RH19 1HA August 20, 2012 — Business Advisory Service (BAS) this month officially signed the new Third Party Intermediary (TPI) Code of Practice. In doing so, it has committed to becoming a key advocate of E.ON Energy‘s new “Third Party Intermediary (TPI) Code of Practiceâ€. The TPI codes of Practice are a set of standards that set the benchmark for responsible high quality TPI‘s selling of energy to micro businesses.
BAS is a TPI that services both the SME and Corporate customer base of the energy market with sales of Business Gas and Business Electricity. As a result, BAS recognised the benefits of E.ON‘s Code of practice in ensuring that in this instance micro businesses are managed and looked after to a high standard by third party intermediaries since there has been a spate of cases where independent brokers have fallen short in looking after the customer in an ethical manner.
Simon Rand, (BAS Sales & Marketing Director) commented that, “The aim of the code is to address areas of concern that have arisen as a result of TPI‘s being unregulated and ensuring that transparency and ethical behaviour is advocated by all members that sign the code of practice.†He explained how the Code covers a range of practices such as TPI recruitment practices, customer contracts, data protection and complaints.

BAS is dedicated to always improving the business and the customer experience and the company feels that this set of standards will ensure that SME customers will have an improved experience and the company will strive to surpass customer expectations because of its commitment to the code of practice.
