Green Mountain Energy Company Switched elderly mans power without written or verbal consent. Forged his signature when confronted. Internet

I will say the excuses saying the Green Mountain is a good company I think not.  Rep just came by house and I told I wasn't interested. He wouyldn't shut up. So I blasted him on there scamming and deceit. He defended it. I told him 17-20 % of energy on grid is wind power. But you GME make people believe all power coming to my house is from the Wind mills. He said yes.  I said but it goes to the generation plant that provides 80% coal/natural gas etc not wind.  He said Oh no all your power is wind.   Am I stupid or is He. He tried to break it down that it goes on grid at 17-20% no matter what.   I use another power company and guess what I am getting 17-20% wind energy no matter what. No matter what unless Green Moutain has there own power lines and generation plant/distribution facility. I think not. He left with me calling Him a LIAR.

Green Mountain used to sell in a local HEB store. 2 years ago. Had same conversation and they ffollowed me to the store. THe y no longer sell at that HEB. They were LIARS then and LIARS now. The company evidently encourages because its the same methods.GME are liars filled. I am getting 17-20% wind energy without having Green Mountain. Because it all goes to the local power plant for distriubution.

it is very likely as i have seen this often that the elderly gentleman thought he was signing up for more information, as many people think that's all the form is. If the form is read however, it explains it is NOT more information but intent to switch. Some agents do not explain this clearly when the customer is signing. Services are switched within 7 days of signing the form if the utility check is passed. As an agent we only get paid if the client does not cancel the plan. While i can't be positive this IS the case, I've seen it happen enough to believe it is very likely so. As far as the forgery, that is all together another case, it's likely the agent forgot to get the signature or the customer changed his mind last minute upon understanding exactly what i described above. IF that is the case, then the agent is to blame, not green mountain. Many don't realize this, but the agents are not employed by green mountain directly, but are agents of another company all together. I tear up forms in front of the customers that deny me for this very reason and usually give them the part of the form containing their social so they know it will not be used. It always amazes me how a few bad agents/ phone reps can ruin the name of a good company.
