Super fast and easy live chat!
(5 / 5)
“
I was just concerned about when I'd be receiving my free Amazon Echo Dot, so I went in to live chat. To my surprise it was rather fast and easy to use. Cres got back to me quickly to answer my question. I thought I'd have to call and be on hold to speak to someone since mine was a new account, but I didn't and I was satisfied with the answer and service I was given!! Thanks so much for making it so easy! ”

I tried to sign into my.new account, couldn't find my account #. Plus,I was concerned that my rate would be very expensive since I use less than 500kg On average. Chat with Kim Relieved my worry. Thought I would be charged for .500 even if I only used 350 0r 400 She assured me that I wouldn't!. Good news, Informed personnel are the heart blood of Customer Service. Kim exemplified great customer service! ”

“
Great company, great prices, great plans, and on top of that, you can speak with a real person on the phone when you need assistance the most. I've been using them for over 4 years, and never once I had an issue. I moved 3 times while I had Direct Energy as a provider, and every single time, there were there to switch my service in no time (no issue) ”

A Breeze
(5 / 5)
“
This is Awesome. I was very disappointed with my previous service provided and unfortunately the relationship of more than 4 years had to end. I reviewed several other companies before arriving here and was displeased at their demands for a huge activation deposit. None of them could clearly explain why those startup monies were necessary or could confirm if they were refundable minus all the fees if the relationship had to end. I would have been okay to pay it out installments but no one was hearing that. Just hand us 220.00 and well turn it on. Im glad i found you guys and very pleased there's no deposit. This is how you become and remain #1. Im telling everyone I know at the old company to follow me. (#high5) Thank you ..Now lets do business one kilo watt at a time. Praise God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ”
