Problems with Fees and Charges (600 reviews)
Feeling Scammed.
“ I was coming up at the end of my contract so I called to end my tides with Frontier. I decided to go with another company after being informed about my services set up to be the same price no matter if I was using less than 1200 whatever and could have had paid a lower amount in the fall months when I don't need to run the heat or AC. Well after an hour the rep had offered me a better deal and said he would waive the charges for the late fee. Today I had to talk to a rep because I was charged an additional $28.00 for being late just one day. I asked for that fee to be waived and was told that I have been given 1 and that it had to be approved, she told me she will send me a text with confirmation or a decline, 6 hours plus, and nothing. I can't find out where I can file a complaint, so I decided to write this review. I have a son with severe Asthma who uses a nebulizer daily can hardly afford the 163.00 I owe let alone an additional 28.00 dollars and I can't have my utilities shut off. At this point, I want to end my relation have the contract waived without the early termination fee. If I was told that a 28.00 fee will automatically apply a 28.00 dollar fee I would have declined to agree to another term. Just what to pay what I owe and move on. Ridiculous to charge customers $28.00 late fee for being 1 day late especially with this Co-vid 19 mess affecting people's income and they can barely pay rent or put food on the table. ”

Moving on from Direct Energy
“ I've been a Direct energy customer for several years. Upon renewal for the contract, I received a letter for my gas & one for electric usage. There is no place in the letter & or contract that says "To call Us to renew". I want cancelling so I thought, I should be ok where I am, and I will be in my plan. Well no, I was wrong. I'm on second bill that is sky high because of the new rates... Why isn't my supplier going to Bat for me? They are just squeezing me for more money. I did get $100 in a prepaid VISA to compensate for last months charges, but nothing for the same high rate again this month. Bastards. Can't adjust their billing statements? What a crock of crap. Buyer beware.... ”
