Scottish Power 4times not phoning when they arranged to. No interest in possible data privacy breach
What are my rights when customer services arrange a time to call me and then don't call. This has happened 4 times now. Do I have similar rights to if an engineer does not turn up? They have wasted a lot of my time having to wait around for them to call.
It will be 8 weeks tomorrow since I raised the issue and they have made no effort to look into what seems to be a breach of data privacy. Do I raise this to Ofgen or Information Commisioner Office or both?

The Energy Ombudsman is the usual first call with any complaints about suppliers.
I ve had that happen when the promise to call you back does nt happen .Personally it did nt upset me or waste my time.
I use a mobile and can usually answer wherever I am unless I`m driving. I dont have to sit by the landline .
Suppliers usually pay out the industry standard £25/ £30 compensation to placate an unhappy customer when meter fitters do not turn up for their appointments and that is very common because there may well be a financial loss when taking a day off work to stay at home.
Not quite the same waiting for a phone call so I do not think you can claim anything0 -
