Billing Reviews

“  I decided to terminate my DE service because there was lack of details/transparency in my statement. Unfortunately, after I switched my service provider, DE made another error in my last bill and overcharged me again. I can only contact DE through online chatting and the representative did her best in assisting me, which was good. However, it will take 1-2 billing cycle(s) to correct the error and their system can not even generate a ticket/tracking number for me to follow up. I believe such treatment is below industry standard and DE really needs to improve in this area to serve their customers better. ”

“  I had no issues with power or billing until last month. I had auto-payment set up and my credit card was being billed properly. Due to some unrelated fraudulent activity several months prior I updated my credit card and no issues. On July 1st I received an email that my payment did not go through. The same day I made a manual payment. On my next bill there was a $20 'Disconnection Notice Fee' and a $2.30 late payment penalty all because they ran the wrong credit card. I called customer service and was no help.So I got a $20 fee for them sending an email and letter, plus a late fee for paying one day late because they ran the wrong credit card. So glad I won't be renewing with them. ”

“  My first bill was for 4 days and $95 where $89 was for penalties for not using a certain amount of electricity. Why bill me for 4 days? They did refund me the $89 but it took 2 billing periods. Seems like they like to make "errors" and see if you catch them. ”

“  We've been with Spark from the beginning and we have had numerous problems. For the first few years it was always administrative related...wrong address, wrong billing amount, etc. Now our problem is our contract expired the end of December and we did not renew on time. So they took our rate from 6.5cents to 16.9cents. When I called to renew for 24 months and complain about the bill, they refused to make a reasonable adjustment. They offered a $75 credit on a $565 bill. We cancelled our service. ”
