Hi has anyone had an email from [Removed by Forum Team]  advising you may be entitled to a claim from People's Energy.  Not sure if this is a scam email a lot of legal jargon on the email it  mentions could be due compensation due  to claims People's Energy  made to customers that they would be shareholders which never happened.  there is a link to a portal which I haven't clicked on  as not sure if this is  genuine.

    More information is needed. Why do you think you were overcharged?

  • I received the same email , looked very complicated which put me of pursuing but i think i will definately look further into it

    I've also just received an email. Is this legitimate? I'm unsure as to what it is referring to when it says to vote for the scheme?
