Not good customer service ANYMORE
“ When I started with Green Mountain, their customer service was personable, helpful, kind, and, courteous. I have been a GM customer for almost ten years. I freelance and there have been times when I have been late in paying, but I have never been disconnected, and have always paid in full. The FIRST and only time that I needed assistance with some extra time for my bill, I was met with a very rude awakening. I was told that the $20 charge on my bill was for "sending a disconnection notice", and that's in addition to the late charges. When I told her my situation, she made no reply whatsoever, and I listened to a mono-tone, heartless voice stating and repeating that I would have to pay in full, including the most recent billing, which was not late yet, or I'd be disconnected, obviously reading from a script. They have repeatedly raised my rate without my acceptance, as high as over 17 cents a Kw. I have referred many people to GM, but now I will warn them against it. BYE. ”

Great Service!
“ I like the customer service that I receive from this provider. I have had two other companies and this is a step above them. Not much that you can say about utility companies, except how much they drain your wallet. But StarTex gives you ease of payment options (no service charges for Visa/MC) and great customer service. ”
