Bupa Electricity Consumer Care

For certain homes in certain Bupa retirement villages, Bupa bulk purchases electricity and sells the electricity to residents.  With respect to these residents, Bupa has responsibilities under the Consumer Care Obligations set out in the Electricity Participation Code 2010.

We are committed to providing excellent service and supporting our residents with clear, accessible information about our electricity services and care obligations. Our Consumer Care Policy outlines our commitment to customer care and complies with the Consumer Care Obligations.

The above only applies to residents who purchase electricity from Bupa, and does not include:

  • residents who purchase electricity from other electricity suppliers; and
  • residents who contribute to the cost of electricity (as part of the village outgoings) via the Weekly Village Fees.
