    A++++ Rating

     I definitely had a good experience. They were able to secure my rate for me, and I'm able to earn cash back on my bill. I received a $25 restaurant card just as an added bonus. Customer service is very friendly and knowledgeable and was able to resolve my issue right away when calling in. Highly recommended!

    Vista keeps it fresh!

     My previous plan had a rate that was locked in for a number of months. It was coming to the end of that, so I shopped around to see what other new way that I could lock in. I went with Vista Energy Marketing because of their pricing. I enrolled online and it was quick and simple. Plus the service has been good so far. If Vista Energy keeps providing competitive rates, people who are looking after their own interest and shopping around will switch to them.

    Pleasantly surprised

     Okay -- I won't do that again. I stupidly signed up for a 3 month locked in rate to a variable rate: "I'll remember to change it when I need to." Of course not. Totally forgot.

    I really felt upset when I saw my rate go from 0.077-> 0.1169 -> 0.13975 -> 0.1698.

    Up just enough I didn't notice until I finally saw a bill north of $300 (!).
    Needless to say, I think this is a bit of trickery and I called CleanSky to say such. To their credit, I apparently received an email notice and one in the mail -- I figured it was spam, forgetting I stupidly signed up for a 3 mo agreement.

    Jasmine at CleanSky heard me out, was kind, professional and understanding. I calculated how much more I spent -- nearly $300 when it went variable. You know what?! She actually listened and credited me back $272. VERY impressive. Go Jasmine. Go CleanSky.

    My fault. Still think it is wrong to jack up prices when we're all busy and don't notice. But... way to make it right. 
    CleanSky Energy responds September 10th, 2021:
    Were happy that Jasmine was able to help you resolve your concerns. Thanks for placing your trust in us and your willingness to share. Have a wonderful day!
