Poor Customer Service
After my husband died I removed his name from our account. Even though both names were on the bill, Duquesne Light said they had to close the account and reopen one in just my name. Then, there was money in the old account and they sent a check to my husband at our home. After spending much time on phone with their Customer Service, a supervisor said to scan and send a copy of my husband's death certificate. THEN, they said that they needed proof of payment from my account which was the same checking account number I had with my husband!!! AND the amount is automatically deducted each month!!! I hope to get my $125.00 soon but I will not hold my breath!

Abominal Customer Service and Rates
I needed to reset my password. Simple enough right? Nope. Their forgot password links do not send emails out like they say they do, and when calling to try and get a hold of a representative so that I can get into my account and pay my bill, I get an estimated 'wait time' of 3 hours. I have now been waiting close to two hours. Disgusting level of service
