Taglab brought British Gas’ site in line with the new brand and accessibility guidelines.

Moving just a small proportion of customers online would result in a large saving in customer support costs. The British Gas Business site targets both SMEs and larger industrial and commercial customers. Offering a combination of gas, electricity, telecoms and other business services, the site provides a combination of marketing and customer service information.
