Problems with Fees and Charges (565 reviews)
Signed up for 7.7cents/kw paid much more than that when my bill arrived
“ Buried somewhere in the fine print is a clause that allows them to charge me way more than I thought because I am a very high volume electricity consumer. So my bill ended up being twice as much as my previous provider who charges the fee they quoted (9.4cents/kw) regardless of the amount used. Consequently; I will be paying the cancellation fee and switching to another provider. ”

Ok
“ I have Green Mountain Energy now. Everything was going well until I tried paying my bill online at my 4th month. Card Declined. Okay, I payed again called great mountain. Called bank to confirm my info was right. It was. And I charged my bank account three times. And I did the math it didn't add up. I paid on time so no charges should be extra. And I'm really disappointed...I sent green mountain my bill , and bank statements and I haven't heard back from them. I doubt they really care. I'm sure they will enjoy my extra money.. Going to be switching soon. ”

Not what I expected.
“ I signed up with greenmountain energy almost a year ago. I must admit, due to hardship, I pay my bill right before the disconnection date of the notice that is mailed out. The disconnection notice fee was $15.00 and now it is $20.00 plus an additional $8.99 late fee and a $3.24 charge that makes no sense to me. I do not understand why they charge $20.00 to send out a peice of paper, stamp, and envelope worh less than $1.00. I recently called due to a hardship to request more time to pay my past due amount. Well, I was told that because I was late too often there was nothing anyone could do for me. I was so shocked. My services have never been disconnected although I have paid late often. In these hard economic times I thought they would at least understand. Well I was definitely wrong. I, nor anyone else is who not perfect, is a valued customer and this is just another example of corporate greed. The rates are ok but the hidden fees are a mess. Plus variable rates. ”
