Universal Gas And Electric Corp misrepresentation of contract violation of full disclosure fraud Southfield Michigan

I was approached by Universal gas salesmen to sign on to thier program to supply gas to my two commercial buildings . I asked if I could switch at anytime , without any penalties . I would never enter into an arrangement I could not get out of , at anytime without penalty . Who am I to choose a gas supplier ? How should I , or any other consumer keep informed as to the best supplier of gas ? Is there a gas price comparison report ? No , the system is set up to take advantage of the public .

They lied to me and told me there was no penalty to change at anytime . They told me gas prices had been approved to go up to a really high cost , and this program would save me so much money . B.S.
Two years ago I got an offer to switch to IGS , at a much lower rate . The switch for some reason didn't go through , I just dealt with it because winter was nearly over anyway .

This last winter I tried again when I got another great rate offer from IGS . This time one of the two accounts changed , I printed both bills on one piece of paper front and back . As I studied them I noticed , botha accounts had equal gas usage , but the Universal supplied account had a charge about $100 more than the IGS account .

I was furious , I made the change despit being told there was a penalty to do so . I complained to the state consuer commission . They had someone contact me from Universal HQ in Canada , who candidly admited they had been having reports of lying salesmen screwing their customers .

When I recieved letters saying I owed a penalty of $1089.21 , I called them and bitched them out , and promised if they pursue me for this bill I would sue them . I thought that would have done it , now I have a collection letter . I'm mad as hell and I wast to sue them ! I won't pay it , and my credit is bad enough , I don't want this B.S. on it . Help , anyone ?
