Abominal Customer Service and Rates

I needed to reset my password. Simple enough right? Nope. Their forgot password links do not send emails out like they say they do, and when calling to try and get a hold of a representative so that I can get into my account and pay my bill, I get an estimated 'wait time' of 3 hours. I have now been waiting close to two hours. Disgusting level of service

Trying to start new service

I called customer service trying to set up new service. I could a recorded message saying the wait time would be 1hour & 20 minutess. I then when to your website which is the worst website I ever TRIED to use. Several times the website would list the address as unknown. When the address was finally accepted ,it would say I had to be the owner and would not let me continue. I spent at least an hour trying to complete this task. I did leave my call to customer service on, but it has been 1hr and 47 minutes with no one speaking to me. I guess that's what happens when you deal with a company that is a monoply.

What a PITA!!!!

What should have been taken care of took a huge amount of time to fix. If I had a choice to choose an electric provider this would be the last place I'd go to. Customer service is abysmal.

NO LIGHTS FOR DAYS

A storm went through and this is the 2nd day that they couldn't figure it out to get our lights back on. When I called the lady was like they hired contractors and worked through the night and still can't get it fixed. Like wow really!!! thats hard to believe because it shouldn't take 28 hours this is the 21st Century and all parts are easy to get to . I don't feel they are telling me the whole story and I don't think they its an honest answer. how can you hire employees that are just saying anything to get the customer to shut up. My husband is sick and needs his medicine in the refrigerator and she was like Make a Claim....wow really! My spouses health is much more important than try to make some claim and fight for refund on a $5000 medicine that is going bad. During these times of the Covid 19 Virus going around. I am taking my own precautions to save his meds because as you can see they are not and I will just have to lose food. When I looked at the outage map this morning it didn't even show my zip code.
