Berkshire Hathaway
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. is a diversified holding company headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. Rather than operating as a single consumer-facing business, Berkshire owns dozens of independently managed subsidiaries engaged in insurance and reinsurance, freight rail transportation, utilities and energy, manufacturing, retailing, aviation, real estate, distribution, and other services. Major businesses include GEICO, BNSF, Berkshire Hathaway Energy, Clayton Homes, McLane, Dairy Queen, NetJets, Benjamin Moore, Brooks, See’s Candies, Nebraska Furniture Mart, and numerous industrial companies.
Berkshire’s modern history is strongly associated with Warren Buffett, who took control of the former textile company and transformed it into a diversified investment and operating conglomerate. The original Berkshire Hathaway textile operations ultimately disappeared, while Berkshire evolved into a decentralized collection of operating businesses and a major portfolio of equity investments. The company remains publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange through Class A and Class B shares.
Berkshire entered a major leadership transition in 2026. Greg Abel became Chief Executive Officer on January 1, 2026, succeeding Warren Buffett as CEO. On September 18, 2026, Buffett became Chairman Emeritus while remaining a director, and Howard G. Buffett was elected Chairman of the Board. Berkshire therefore now operates under CEO Greg Abel with Howard Buffett as non-executive Chairman, while Warren Buffett continues in an advisory and board role.

If your issue concerns GEICO, BNSF, Dairy Queen, NetJets, Berkshire Hathaway Energy, a furniture company, an insurance subsidiary, or another Berkshire operating business, contact that subsidiary directly.

Because Berkshire Hathaway is a holding company, the correct complaint route depends heavily on whether the issue concerns Berkshire itself, a shareholder matter, or one of its independently managed subsidiaries. Gather contracts, receipts, policy or account numbers, correspondence, dates, shareholder records, and any previous case information before escalating.
If the issue concerns a Berkshire subsidiary, begin with that company’s Customer Service department rather than Berkshire headquarters. For example, an insurance complaint should begin with the insurer, while a retail, railroad, utility, aviation, or housing complaint should begin with the relevant operating company.
Use the department specifically responsible for the dispute. Insurance matters may require Claims or Policy Services, utility problems may need billing or regulatory support, shareholder matters require shareholder services, and product complaints belong with the relevant retailer or manufacturer.
If the operating subsidiary’s first-line support cannot resolve the complaint, ask for a supervisor, manager, executive-resolution team, claims manager, branch leader, or other higher-level reviewer. Maintain the original case number and explain the resolution already attempted.
Submit a formal written complaint using the operating subsidiary’s official complaint or correspondence process. Include account or policy numbers, dates, supporting documentation, and the exact remedy requested. Written records are particularly important for regulated insurance, utility, financial, and transportation complaints.
If the issue genuinely concerns Berkshire Hathaway Inc. rather than routine subsidiary operations, correspondence can be sent to Berkshire Hathaway Inc., 3555 Farnam Street, Omaha, NE 68131. Berkshire’s corporate phone is 402-346-1400. Keep expectations realistic because the parent company does not operate as a centralized consumer-resolution department.
Regulated Berkshire subsidiaries generally have dedicated complaint, claims, legal, compliance, or regulatory teams. Follow the subsidiary’s formal dispute procedure before attempting parent-company escalation. Shareholder matters should use the current transfer-agent and corporate-governance procedures published by Berkshire.
The regulator depends on the subsidiary and complaint. Insurance matters generally fall under state insurance departments, railroad matters may involve the Surface Transportation Board or Federal Railroad Administration, utility matters may involve state public-service commissions or federal energy regulators, and securities matters may involve the SEC or FINRA.
Consumers may also contact the relevant state Attorney General, consumer-protection office, financial institution, or other applicable dispute channel when the complaint concerns retail purchases, financial charges, contracts, or deceptive practices. Use the regulator with jurisdiction over the actual Berkshire subsidiary rather than filing a generic complaint against the parent company without identifying the business involved.
If the subsidiary’s internal process and applicable regulatory channels do not resolve a serious dispute, review the contract, policy, tariff, terms of service, or other agreement governing the transaction. Arbitration clauses and legal remedies differ greatly across Berkshire’s subsidiaries, so independent legal advice may be appropriate before pursuing a formal claim.
