Disconnect Fees and Problems (416 reviews)
Horrible company scam artists
“ They continuously disconnect service regardless of payment! They disconnected me TWICE in ONE MONTH, HOW IS THIS LEGAL OR POSSIBLE?! I've paid over $500 in two months and have been disconnected 3 times! I'M IN THE DARK AS I LEAVE THIS REVIEW!! Customer service is TRASH unless you speak Spanish!! If not they are going to read a script and not offer any assistance!! I've had to go all the way up to corporate about this issue! I have a disabled parent in my home and they do not care at all! I'm switching companies TODAY and direct energy and they entire spanish speaking customer service crew can kiss my entire ass! ”

.14 c and .17c month to month trap
“ I have been with them since 2007. When in a contract there are not many issues. I have 2 accounts with them on auto debit. One time they debited one account, but not the other and sent me disconnection notice and fees demand. Notice, both accounts use the same CC. Took the fees off, but not off my record. Hmm. I have been off the contract for who knows how long. My month to month rate right now is 14 and 17 cents. Quite a high rate compare with 8 cents you can find somewhere else. I called several months ago and they offered like 12 cents which is way higher than others. My son got a much cheaper promotional rate at his apartment as a new customer. I guess they don't care about loyal customers! Very dissapointing. On the other hand I like they offer auto debit by CC and more organized than some other outfits around. I lost a lot of money being month to month for a couple of years and ready to move my business somewhere else. ”

Still billing me at my old address after I moved
“ After I moved, they continued to bill me at my old address. I transferred service to my new residence and disconnected at the house I sold. Somehow a new account number was created in my name that I could no see when I logged into my account. They billed me for 3 months of power usage for the house I sold. Called them and they will not come off wanting to be paid. Goodbye Startex - was a customer for 9 years. Thieves they are ”

Poor customer service; mistakes in billing- not worth the small percent discount
“ received the largest electric bill of my 10 years at this residence. I noticed it was due to an egregious supply charge tacked on by Tri-Eagle. I called customer service while at work and doing a hundred other things- first time left on hold 20 minutes- then 10 minutes with the first rep Rosa who disconnected me right when getting to my issues. second call Angela- 12 minutes- she could not help as it was funneled to incorrect department- transferred back to main menu 15 minute wait- at this point gave up. I have too much work to do. called back half hour later. goes right to a message stating please enter your call back number. which I did. 2 hours and no call back. ”
