Direct Energy Complaint - Avoid Direct Energy - Electricity

Electricity - Complaint
Review by Sal817 on 2010-09-30
DALLAS, TEXAS -- Avoid Direct Energy at all costs. The electricity market in Texas, since deregulation, is bad, but there is no need to compound it by choosing Direct Energy. They have many small fees and charges that you are unaware of till they are assessed, but they also charge interest on any overdue amounts. And receiving a disconnection notice for a $70 bill that was only 10 days late is a little overkill. There are a lot of electricity providers in Texas and you should always choose carefully. Eliminating Direct Energy from your list of electricity providers will help you narrow down your choices.

Few people realize it but your electric provider does not change. It has been the same since your house was hooked up. The only thing you are choosing is who bills you for it. It is a new layer of business that deregulation allowed. And you (we, and all of us) are paying the price. Granted, Texas seems to be the worst.
