📣 Where do I complain about my energy company in Latvia?

The short answer

Start with the company itself, in writing. If that does not solve it, an independent body settles disputes with energy companies.

📜 The rules in Latvia

What to do first

First complain in writing to the energy company; it must reply within 15 days (30 days if extra checks are needed). If you are not satisfied, send the same complaint with the company's reply to SPRK. Disputes about bills, debts or damages go to court.
