Sales representatives (2) came in to my store to discuss whether or not I would like to change electric providers. They left some info with me and came back in a couple of days during a time I was not so busy with work. They had discussed several things about how I could really save a lot by switching over to with them. They proceeded to tell me about how we now have a choice in providers and showed me documentation of the savings that I would have. While it was only maybe 1.5 cents per Kwh, it was a savings nonetheless. Never was it mentioned by them that I was to be on a variable rate and that I could eventally pay more or less by them. The only thing they mentioned about rate was that my rate would be cheaper and the only time it would change is when my original service provider would raise the rates, so that they can be cheaper and competitive. 

Now some time later I have found out that not only did they lie to me at my store but after signing up with them I would be in for a 200% increase from what my original provider is currently charging. From the 1.5 cent decrease to over double what I should be paying and this was their plan to begin with. They are taking advantage of people by going door to door with a friendly face and demeanor tricking them into signing up so that they can jack the rates up so high that no one in their right mind would continue to do business with them. This way they make tons of money and in the event the individual consumer finally figures it out they stick by their contract that you had signed under trust from the sales represenatives. 

When calling them on the phone it was no surprise that everyone in the company was used to these calls and had a script that they went by. Basically blaming the customer for being ripped off because they did sign a contract. No one with a lick of sense would ever sign up for something to save a penny for a couple of months only to have it raised over 200% of the going rate. This is a distrustful, immoral way of doing business. This company should be put out of business and if anyone out there is aware of a class action lawsuit against them, I would be more than happy to add myself. 

It's really upsetting to know that some companies decide to do shady business in this day and age. It's even more upsetting that companies are still getting away with this type of behavior because they misled them into signing a contract so that they have a leg to stand on when the customer eventually figures it out. Abhorrant.
