Energy Shoppers Review

I Received my renewal notice, and compared prices, only to find Direct energy was more than some others for the same one year, no fee,no cancellation charge,plan. Based on that I checked with them and found that was the best they could do, but I was offered a $100.00 gift card, which made up the difference. That sweetener, sealed the deal, for me.

I finally got my new electric bill.

I couldn't respond to your request because you asked way before I got my new bill. With my old electric server my bill was over $500. Now this month my bill was $355, a big change. It should be even lower, but with Bidenomics and everything going up anyways, I don't know if I can cut my usage or if it's this incredible inflation. Time will tell.

Direct energy delivers what it promises

My prior energy provider offered a "come on" value for switching to them. They had a bonus plus low rates. What I was not notified of was that after three months the rate escalated dramatically. It was a "fixed" rate but after the into period it fixed at more than twice the original. I, unfortunately, did not catch this for several months thru the summer. When I did catch it there was no mercy from their customer service people so I found Direct Energy and they are living up to their agreement

Hi George, and thank you for the awesome star-ratings! If your initial 2 year agreement is coming to an end, please keep any eye out for your renewal information. It should be on the one of the last pages contained in your monthly billing statement approximately 2 statements prior to expiration. This will let you know what renewal options and promotions are available for you, and advise on how to accept a renewal offer. Please make sure to have this completed by the actual contract end date; if a renewal option is not selected, the account will roll into a month to month, variable rate plan. You may accept a renewal by contacting us using any of the methods listed here: https://www.hwahomewarranty.com/contact-us. Thank you, George, and have a wonderful week!

Renewing Contract

I have tried to contact Direct Energy for 2 days to renew contract. It appears that the low rate is only available to new customers. I have been with them for 5 yrs and went online to do a Chat but each time I am told 6 people in the Que. I wait until it gets down to 1 and then a message comes up that no agents available. I get out and go right back in and 6 in Que again. Last year when contract was up the price to renew went up. This year it looks like quite a bit. It appears that they get you in and then continue to raise the price.

$99 cancellation fee voided

My recent experience with Direct Energy was not exactly pleasant. My bill was very high, I cancelled the service and went back to MetEd with lower rates. However Direct Energy charged me a $99 cancellation fee after only a little over 1 month service.
I responded to their email to rate their service and explained how upset I was to be charged the cancellation fee as the representative had told me it was not usually enforced.
I have just received another email from Direct Energy stating the are voiding the fee for me. I greatly appreciate this since I am on a limited income. Thank you so much for this!!!!

Dont use these guys

I signed up for Direct Energy online and called to confirm the rate. My account at my distribution company was changed in 4 days. When I received the Direct Energy confirmation in the mail my rate was 1 cent higher. I called and immediately cancelled the Direct Energy plan. They were my supplier for 4 days. I immediately got a new generator and it took my distribution company a week to add the new company. Dont trust them, they lie about their rates.

Bait and Switch

I switched to Direct Energy in January of 2022. The original offer had no cancellation fees. Low and behold, after using Direct Energy for a few months and getting billed from Direct Energy and from my Electric supplier, I decided to switch companies.

Terrible customer service

I have had direct energy for years and every time it came time for a renewal rate was more than a new customer. No loyalty whatsoever towards the customer. This last episode was the last straw. I am one year into a 36 month contract and am moving. Since I will get a new account number because it is a new build direct energy has told me I would have to enroll again as a new customer and they would not transfer my current rate.terrible the way they treat existing customers.I will never use them again nor would I recommend them to anyone

Harassing, unsolicited phone calls

I have been receiving several unsolicited phone calls from this company (sometimes as many as 4 times a day) I have repeatedly asked to have my number removed from their call list and told them that I am on the do not call list. Still every day I get calls from a very arrogant young man with a heavy accent (middle eastern) who is quite rude. Today when I once again got a call, I asked for the name of the company he works for so that I could report these calls he very arrogantly said "go ahead, go ahead" . I am so tired of these obnoxious callers that I feel the need to speak out. The number they always call from is from Havertown, PA 610-860-0734. (I would not be surprised to learn that the number is cloned.) I can guarantee you that I will never change any of my accounts to Direct Energy!

Thieves - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

I was unfortunately a Direct Energy customer for years. My wife pays the bills and wasn't really paying attention to the amount on the electric bill. One day I opened the bill and was shocked. So I researched the kw/hr price I was being charged by Direct Energy with what the typical price was. WOW.

Direct Energy was happily charging me over DOUBLE their current price. Basically, they were stealing from me. Companies need to make money. I get it. But Direct Energy's behavior is unethical and should be illegal. No phone call, no email. Zero effort was made to help a long-time customer to not be price gouged.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

If they offered me a rate at half of everyone else, I still wouldn't use them.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

— Cynthia Adams from Harrisburg, PA on February 3rd, 2020

Hi Cynthia. We can understand your concern with the final invoice that was priced based on a non-contract rate. Our system will automatically transition accounts that have expired contracts to non-contract pricing to ensure there is no interruption of service. Under our variable rate pricing, the rate we set each month is based on the company evaluation of market conditions. Market conditions the company may consider include: the prevailing price of electricity on the market, costs involved in moving the electricity from the producer to the utility, our total acquisition costs for the electricity, and the prevailing rates offered by the utility and other competitors. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your closed DE account, please do not hesitate to reach out to us through Social Media https://www.facebook.com/directenergy/ or Live Chat https://www.directenergy.com/. We hope you have a great day and stay safe out there. - Eleanor / Digital Care
