JUST Energy WATCH OUT
“ I used to have 4change Energy when I first moved to Katy, Texas and one day I went to SAM's club and they had this rep from Just energy. He got my attention by saying that they could lower the bill and that they offered me free nights. Not knowing anything about the electricity market of TX I decided to go ahead and switch providers since Just Energy was going to pay for the switching fee too from the last provider. Little did I know that when they signed me up for the contract it was at $0.286/kWh and some little charges here and there and little did I know that even though they offer Free Nights from 9pm-6pm, my average bill quickly got to the $300 despite the fact of using about 600-700 kWh during so called "FREE nights". They got me good and now that I am switching to a different provider, they charged me the fee that they reimbursed me, when I first switched to them and also they signed me up for a 3 year contract. I was a fool, but now that I know how to check the Fact Label sheet of every electricity provider, I won't make the same mistake. Please pay attention to these JUST Energy reps and don't let their too good to be true promises get you in a situation where you are paying the highest electricity rate. ”

Switched plan without consent or knowledge
“ My contract expired and they didnt feel the need to contact me in any way, no text, no email, no call. They constantly text me when my bill is available or do but never sent a renewal contract. They just switched my plan without my knowledge and started charging me 20% more than before. It is a shady business practice and only a short term gain but now has lost them a customer for life. Why practice business that way? Its unnacceptable to treat customers that way. I immediately switched to a different company and wont be back ”

What a scam
“ We were approached in Sams Club and the lady basically forced us to sign up. She pulled my phone out of my hand and had me tell her the numbers to put in to dial the number so that we could call customer service to our energy provider. We didnt even give her permission yet that we wanted to switch and she immediately called them after speaking with them. She assured us that we were going to save a whole bunch of money and we were going to get a gift card from Sams Club. None of these were true. We got to the checkout and our gift card never arrived. Checking the comments I see that is a common theme. We got our first bill and it was double what we normally pay. Our bill usually runs about $250. Our first bill ran over $500. The next bill was nearly $600 and every bill since then has been right around five and $600 consistently when it used to run right around $250 There has been absolutely no savings. When we went to cancel the person on the phone was pushy and insisted on keeping us from canceling. She even offered us a discount. Then when my husband remained firm with her and said to cancel she said that it was going to take at least three to four billing cycles to process the change. It didnt take that long to put them on our bill. If you see one of these people in Sams Club run the other way do not talk to these people. They are scammers. I dont know what can be done legally, but they are breaking the law they have to be. It is shameful what they are doing to some of these people that cant afford a huge bill like that not that we can. ”

They do not honor their contracts
“ I had a 36 month fixed contract that they cancelled after 7 months. They offered a rate that was over 40% higher per CCF. This was a FIXED natural gas contract yet the excuse was market rates. ”

call them to not auto-renew contract, and they can't figure that out
“ My contract is up at the end of April. I called them 4/9 to not renew the contract. They said they don't have a way to do that, and I have to call back closer to end of April. Explained that I just don't want to renew my contract once term is over at the end of April. Again, they don't have a way to do that, they could try to put in this request, but not sure if it will be accepted. Told me I have to call back closer to the end of April. They are basically hoping I forget to call back so they can auto-renew my contract. Very shady business practice and not to be trusted!! ”
