Would NOT Recommend
I signed up for Direct Energy as my electrical power supplier. All went super well until my term came to an end. Typically, you just find the least expensive provider and sign up and you can automatically switch, not with Direct Energy. I had to call in to cancel and apparently it will take 1 to 2 billing cycles until it goes through. So now I can't shop for a better price because they haven't "released" me. Just isn't a great way to do business.

Electric Bill Still Higher Than Expected
While I am glad to have received a better rate with Constellation, for a fixed 6-month period, no less, I will continue to search for a lower rate because my bill is still considerably higher than I had hoped, despite having gotten new weather stripping and additional insulation added to multiple areas of my house in the past few months.

My revue
Being on a fixed income I had to find a better price. My bills are half of what I was paying. I'm one happy customer.

great low rate
Very easy signup and has the lowest fixed rate i could find at this time. I look forward to the 3 month savings. It is worth it when you live in a bigger home with many family members. Thank you for the savings!
