Constantly POOR Customer Service

Sorry but extremely disappointed in your customer service. I will be posting your poor responses to social media and anywhere else I can
After many calls today, I finally got through. Your system was literally dropping me with no voice mail or messages. When I got through, your rep was very friendly and helpful, but gave me some interesting information.
NO REQUEST to process my credit balance was ever submitted by JUST NRG, after two months. How long would you have left that balance outstanding if I didnt call?
Even though you are quite eager to receive customer funds to pay for bills, apparently you are incapable of processing a refund/credit balance. Instead, JUST NRG prefers to take an excessive amount of time (6-8 WEEKS? Seriously?) to create a paper cheque and mail it out.
Are you aware that you then are paying for the paper cheque forms, and for postage? And this is supposed to be more effective HOW?
And the reason for the delay must either be due to poor or inefficient process policies or for underhanded marketing.
Either way, it does not look good to the quality of the management of JUST NRG. Obviously your shareholders come first before your customers. A good marketing person will tell you that if you upset ONE customer, they tell two others, and they tell two others, and so on.
Good luck, and thank you for your previous business.
Regards,

What a Joke

Of course they got me at sams club with all these gift card offers if you sign up. I asked if my bill was going to change and they said no so I signed up. My bill was more than tripled and I never got any gift cards. Do not sign up. They will screw you over and take all your money.

Dont do it

I signed up in Sams Club. The girl looked at my bill and said I would save money because they offered a flat fixed rate of 54.99 just as a special deal for Sams Club members. I thought it was too good to be true so I asked if the flat rate had a cap to which she replied no it doesnt! Then she carefully scrolled to where I needed to sign. This is my fault because I should have stood there in Sams Club with my cart full of groceries and read all of the contract. I think they are counting on people not wanting to do that. Turns out the flat rate is only for the first 900 kw. After that it is billed at 5.99 per kw. This is in no way a savings and would actually cost me more. But she stood right there and lied. When I actually got home and read the contract I called the company and canceled.
Just Energy still has kids in the local Sams club preying on unsuspecting, trusting people. Dont buy your energy supplier at the grocery store!

No Accountability

I have been on phone calls with Just Energy for over 3 hours today dealing with erroneous charges on my account. Per my contract, I was not to be assessed any ETF. When I received the charge, I called and the service associate assured me that the charges were removed from my account. I called back to make a final payment on my account, and the representative informed me that the account no longer reflected the waived ETF. Now I am back on hold to go through this process all over again.
I have repeatedly had trouble hearing the agents and many of the agents are unable to discuss and comprehend the charges as they are listed on my bill. When questioned, they always defer to another department. This causes the customer to have to re-explain the situation too many times over the course of one phone conversation.
I have to laugh about the message played while on hold. They claim to be the number 1 energy provider in Houston, but there are no other accolades from the multitude of states that they serve. I hope others stay away from this company because they will send you through a never ending cycle without any direct answers to your concerns.

Too expensive

They will call you all the time and sending threatening notices to cancel, and much worse . When I called to find out about any early termination charges the little girl hung up on me. Terrible customer service you can barely understand them, disappointed with this company, needs to be closed down charging unsuspecting consumers double for supply #fired

Huge rip off

So Just Energy stopped me in Sam's Club and convinced me that they were offering me a lower price (they did have my bill to compare.) After one month with them, my electric bill went from $90 to $151. I called Ohio Edison to find out what was going on only to find out Just Energy was charging me 2 1/2 times the amount I was paying with Ohio Edison. I switched back immediately. Don't let their promotions fool you. I got a $70 Sam's club card for changing my electric and gas. I had to wait for a new billing cycle to change back. So in the end, I will have paid $160+ more for service than I would have paid if I had stayed where I was. Imagine if I stayed a year and didn't catch it. That's $1,920 more a year and it would have been higher because I use gas in the winter to heat. Their customer service representative says they've been in business for 20 years, they must be doing something right. I told her no, you just have a bunch of idiots (like me) for customers, who are confused as to why their bill went up. And, I haven't spoke to anyone with Just Energy that I could understand. They all speak broken English. I will NEVER use these fake liars again for service! BEWARE!!!

Do NOT sign up for this company!

I was stopped in a Sams Club store in Columbus, OH by a rep stating he was with Just Energy. I spoke with him for a while about the company and decided to sign up. After looking at reviews online I decided to cancel (just 2 days later). Instead of calling Just Energy, which Ive tried calling them several times now and it repeatedly says their offices are closed, I called AEP and told them that I do not authorize the switch. This morning I received another email from AEP stating that I approved a transfer of my service to Dynergy which I also did not approve. The Just Energy rep stated my info would not be sold but yet another energy company was trying to switch my account without my consent.

Complete scam

Just Energy was advertised to me. I was told there would be absolutely no changes or additions to my bill in anyway. But actually an extra flat rate 50$ per month was tacked on and when I wanted to cancel they charged me a termination fee and referred it to a collections agency rather than just letting me pay it. This company is a complete scam and am pissed that I ever got involved.

Mislead

I am a Sam's Club member who was solicited by Just Energy while shopping at Sam's. I was talked into switching both electric and natural gas to JE. Going into the 3rd year i decided it was no longer feasible to stay with Just Energy. Upon switching to other suppliers I was hit with $100 early termination fee, which was $50 for each utility. It was not made clear when signing up and I do not recommend dealing with JE.

Do not overpay with credit

Do not overpay and have a credit with these people . I used to pay an overpayment of about $300 to $400 to keep my bill where I wouldn't have to pay it until the money went down to around $75. I sold my house and when I went to ask for my over age which is around $270 they refuse to pay it because they said they weren't responsible for me over paying. I don't have the mental capacity or time to fight these people but that's illegal

Ruthless

I always pay my bills on time. I received a collection email from Just Energy. I called their customer service on two occasions, as the first number did not work. They were zero help and could be understand me. It was a joke. They had not answer. It was like a scam. I filed a complaint with the BBB. Still no answers. We made a big mistake using this company and will switch immediately. Do not use!
