There are approx. 460 electricity vendors in Poland. One of them is the company Polski Prąd i Gaz – formerly operating under the firm Polska Energetyka PRO. It was part of the Financial Assets Management Group, which also includes the Tele-Polska and Telekomunikacja dla Domu companies.
On behalf of Polski Prąd i Gaz, electricity sales contracts are signed by sales persons at consumers’ homes. The biggest customer base of the Polski Prąd i Gaz company are senior citizens. As the investigation conducted by the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) has proven, the company did not attract them in a fair manner.
