Disconnect Reviews

“  Constellation Energy disconnected my service without properly notifying me. When you call Customer Service, they will verify that they have the right phone number for you three times, but no one will take 1 minute to actually use it to call you, even if you owe them money. It just happens. No letter, no email, no phone call. Nothing. It's easier for them to just let your service get disconnected. Then, of course, you'll contact them to pay your bill. It's easier for them that way. They don't have to lift a finger. Very poor treatment. ”

“  For your sanity, do not establish service with Direct Energy if you don't have to. Like myself and the others, we have warned you. The amount of complaints is out of this world, my goodness.

For the past year, I have asked for a due date change. I've only had one issue with a payment, but that's it I didn't update my banking before the due date, and that was my error. Every time I ask for a due date change, they tell me my account isn't eligible for a change. I've been with them for several years and have, NEVER, asked to change my due date. For a year, you've been telling me my account isn't eligible. When speaking to an agent this evening, she said it wasn't eligible because I did not have to pay a deposit. Excuse me, but I can't change the due date because I didn't pay a deposit, one your company did not require. That's something I'm being penalized for? Interesting.

Believe it or not, I like the plan I have, most electricity companies are not offering free weekends I've been shopping plans, lately. My issue is with the additional late fees (again, not able to change the due date) they tag on, a late fee w/ a disconnect fee. Because I haven't been able to change my due date, it's like I'm paying $50 additional, each month. When I pay my original bill without including the late fees, they will show my bill as not being paid in full and will issue a disconnection fee for the late fees.

I feel I'm due a credit, stemming back from my first request to change my due date, to the last request. Credit all additional fees. Per Direct Energy's customer information, even without paying a deposit, the due date can still be changed but that was the reason I was given, for it not being eligible for a change.

At this point, I filed a complaint with the BBB. I have to give them time to respond and resolve this issue, if not, I will file additional complaints with PUCT (Public Utility Commission), AG, and possibly seek legal counsel.

This is crazy! ”
