Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackAmigo Energy engages in dishonest, bait-and-swtich marketing tactics which likely constitute violations of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act. Amigo recently raised customers’ rates 61% in one billing cycle (one month), during the hottest time of the year, when customers are more dependent on electric service than other times of the year. Shame!
Amigo es no Amigo, I got gouged by these people as soon as my contract rate expired, my rates went from .116 kwh to .154 kwh the first month after contract expired, next month it went to .198 kwh and I switch the day I got the bill, but due to Relient dragging there feet for four weeks in picking up my service I had to pay another “Friend” bill at a rate of .2419, that is over 100 percent increase in 3 month! The last month of which I waiting to change my service.
We also have been gouged by these people, I am outraged. If anyone reading this is considering going with Amigo DON’T DO IT, they will rip you off too. Our rate went from 0.1519 to 0.2419 in the space of two bills. I arranged to change service in June when I received a bill showing an increased rate of 0.1959. I had to wait almost a month for Reliant to switch us over. Now we have a leaving present from Amigo. For our final month of service with them they increased our rate again to 0.2419 and presented us with a bill for almost $900. Naturally it is impossible to get through on the phone to them. Wish they would regulate this industry and shut down these price gougers.
Is anybody getting a class action suit together we need help bad. These weasels raised me to $0.2469 per kWh and billed final two months ($1700) at same time. I had to take out a loan to get rid of these crooks.
Is anyone else having trouble getting through to their customer service? I’m a former NPC customer who got switched and luckily I was able to change to a new company, however I still have not received a bill from Amigo for the month I was with them… All this crap is starting to sound VERY shady. First NPC gives them their business and then the rates skyrocket, and now you can’t reach anybody on the phone… Oh and they’re trying to bill me july rates even though I was with them for June….
amigo raised my rate from .10/KWh to .26.kwh as soon as my contract was up in july. i transfered my service the same day. i hope these people burn in hell!
I’ve had the same experience with Amigo. It seems once they noticed I was switching companies they decided to raise my last month’s rate to $0.24/kwh. The funny thing is that it took them more than a month to send my final bill. Previously they always billed me one day after the meter was read. I’ll be filing a complaint with Amigo, the PUC (like those cronies will help) as well as writing my state reps. This is legalized robbery, plain and simple. I’ve been with four power companies and this is the only problem I’ve ever had. If anyone knows of a class-action suit, please post.
Ive had the same experiences as everyone else.
I believe Amigo Energy is overcharging customers to “penalize” them for not switching to their fixed rate program.
In the Amigo Energy terms of service it states: “The price described in the Applicable Electricity Facts Label iis inclusive of all applicable energy, transmission, and distribution charges, but does not include non-recurring fees and applicable taxes. The price is subject to changes in applicable transmission, and distribution charges, generation fuel prices, and applicable taxes.”
I contacted Amigo Energy customer service and said I believe I am being overbilled. I asked to see the a detailed breakdown of changes in applicable transmission, and distribution charges, generation fuel prices, and applicable taxes for the last three months, which would account for their need to raise prices by 43% over that period. They said they couldn’t do that.
I filed a complaint with Texas Attorney General (www.oag.state.tx.us/) and the Texas PUC (www.puc.state.tx.us/) and suggest everyone do the same.
Our electricity went from .107 to .2419 as soon as our 6 month term expired. An increase of almost 250% before we had any notification whatsoever. I intend to file complaints with every organization/office listed above also.
Starting with the Better Business Bureau of Dallas who has 18 previous complaints registered. They already have a listing of unsatisfactory at the BBB site in Dallas.
For what it’s worth 17/18 Dallas complaints have been resolved.
Just looked at my bill and see these jerks don’t even have business hours over the weekend.
We are in the same boat as you. I switched to another provider after recieving a .19/kwh rate from Amigo. I didn’t see it coming after having experienced very reasonable rates over the last 18 months of service. If that wasn’t bad enough, the final slap (bill) was .241/kwh - astronimical! I will be filing complaints as well.
Amigo Electric business model is competitive until it expires. Then they JACKED up the rate 52% without notice. The say 12 periods well, it is periods not a year. They bill not every month, sometimes 2 in one month. So, the unsuspecting slob thinks he can switch after 1 year. WRONG. They count on that. Our Bill increased from 11.9 to 24.19 during the hottest and peak demand months. It has hit our family hard. IF YOU GO WITH THEM, YOU SHOULD HAVE YOUR HEAD EXAMINED FOR BRAIN ACTIVITY.
I just spent the last 2 months trying to get out of business with Amigo. It was a horrible experience. Like someone said - If you go with them, examine your head. They are bad all around. Now, what will filing with the PUC do? I plan on doing it, but would like to know what will happen, if anything. I also had the rate hike from .13 cents to .24 cents from May to July. The worst part was spending hours on the phone arguing with them, being placed on hold and being cut off, even hung up on. Unbelievable. Are they alone in this type of practice? Or do other energy companies price gouge and torment their customers? Please, if someone has any legal advice, post it. Thanks!
We were with Nat’l Power before they discontinued service in our area end of May and was automatically switched to Amigo with the understanding nothing would change. We called Amigo 7/07 to ask about our stmt and was told one had been sent. We had not received it so paid it online asking them to mail a hard copy and also e-mail us the statement. The charge from National Power from 5/13 to 5/30 was .125KWh. The charge from Amigo from 5/30 to 6/12 was .1999KWh. On 8/4 we called again having not received the June or July stmt again paying on . We were extremely surprised to see the charge went to .2469KWh and a late charge for the June stmt. We call Green Mountain and have swithed as of 8/6 after reading them the KW hrs used for the same time the bill would have been $200 less. I agree with the thought process that Amigo increased the charge to get you to sign a contract. They had attempted to get us to by e-mails and telephone calls,yet we could not get a stmt from them.
@Linda: Interesting that they told you they sent you a bill. I called them and they said my statement was in “open bill” which apparently means they hadn’t sent it yet, and supposedly wasn’t even due. According to the CSR, it takes 30 to 60 days after the final date of service to get a bill….
seems the most egregious thing happening is the arbitrary increase without notification and this goes on with all service providers.
for what it’s worth i wrote to all state and national lawmakers demanding they fix this and the best i got was “well,next time we are in session we will look at it”. we need to look at the people representing us and get some new ones elected who actually understand the problem.class action suits and the bbb are are joke because the energy companies are operating within the law the morons we elected passed.
Looks like we are left with few options as I too have been fleeced by Amigo customer service is horrible as they don’t respond to emails nor phone calls (one of them actually hung up on me when I asked his name). There must be a maverick lawmaker who will take these people on.I am about to email John Culbertson and Dan Patrick and let local newspapers and TV stations know about the practices used by these REP’s. Suggest a picket/prostest march on Amigo headquarters to let them know how many people are affected with their low handed business tactics.
I am with you guys….I won’t go into more of the same of how I was hosed, but my bill is a $1000 compared to our usual $500 bill. We were increased from 16.something to 24.9.They refused to make payment options with me. I am interested if anyone files a class action or even if the news media gets involved. I cancelled my 2 year contract (a week after I signed up because they refused to let me make payments on the bill)Their customer service is deplorable. As I type I have been on the phone on hold for almost 30 minutes waiting to talk to a manager that was to have ALREADY called me back. Truly rediculous…..
maria_c_diaz@yahoo.com- contact me if you have any ideas on what we can do….
I sent an email to local tv media today.
(The 4 major networks in Dallas.)
No responses yet, I’ll update here if they reply.
My increase was .107 -> .2419 in one billing period, no notification. Today when I finally reached their office they told me they didn’t have time to update me prior to increasing the billing. My only notification was my increased bill.
I reported to Public Utility Commission earlier in the week and they say their response should come within 21 days.
From $191 in May 2008 to $687 in June 2008!!!
We, too have been victimized by Amigo Energy. I hope we can accomplish a remedy. Our home is only 1107 square feet, we have thermal curtains in most windows, keep the air at 78 during the day, 74 at night. I was on a variable plan that was never out of line with other companies and then I decided to switch when my rate went from .1439 for April 2008 to .1769 in May 2008. I switched to Green Mountain for a 3 month intro offer of 14.3. Unfortunately the switch didn’t get accomplished fast enough. My highest bill with Amigo in 1 1/2 years was $191, my LAST bill from Amigo=$687!!!
I switched May 22, 2008 and when I still hadn’t received my final bill from them in late July, I called. When I FINALLY got through, they said my final bill had not been generated (could take 30-60 days). I asked what my rate/kwh was and they said it hadn’t been determined yet! How convenient for them.
Then when I received my $687 bill I called repeatedly for several days before I finally got through and then held for 30 minutes for a rep. I asked for a manager or supervisor and they refused. I asked them to review my history of usage and charges and they said I had a variable plan and that they had tried on several occasions to reach out to me with a fixed rate offer and that I didn’t respond. (I don’t recall ever getting reached out to by them!) She also said that I was supposed to have called them EVERY month in order to keep the lower variable rate. I don’t recall being informed of that either.
I’m sorry that everyone else here is experiencing some similar problems, but it feels better not to be alone. I’m going to fight it every way I know of–it’s not fair to be held captive that way.
Good luck to all.
@Tammy: Have you received your bill yet and/or paid your final bill?
Josh,
I did receive my final bill. It was $687! I haven’t paid it yet. I was told I have 60 days to pay. I plan to file complaints with the PUC, Attorney General’s office, Fair Trade Commission and Amigo.
I thought I had seen something saying the rate couldn’t increase more than a certain % in a month but I can’t locate that now. Does anyone know about that?
Thanks.
@Tammy: It’s right here: http://www.amigoenergy.com/web/pdfs/npc_termsofservice.pdf Section# 4 - Variable rate offers may change, but not more than once per billing cycle and not more than 10% from the rate stated on your Electricity Facts Label without NPC providing you a revised Electricity Facts Label.
The only facts label I received was when I first was sold to them, so unless they can somehow prove the postal service delivered the (non-existent) new EFL, they’re SOL.
BTW, how’d you get them to finally send you a bill?
Josh, thanks for the link to the info I needed. I only ever received the facts label when I first signed up with them 1 1/2 years ago, so I hope this info will help me.
I received a bill about 1 month after leaving them–I called repeatedly and finally got through to someone. They said just to wait until the bill was generated–it sometimes takes up to 60 days.
Thanks again for the link.
Unfortunately I just spoke with the PUC and they said it wouldn’t help to complain regarding my rate jumping from .1769 to .2469 in one month because under my variable rate plan there is no stipulation that they can’t raise it to any amount they want.
I guess terms of service were different for NPC customers who went to Amigo. (Can’t increase more than 10% per billing cycle).
I still think it’s robbery, price gauging, etc. however, I feel pretty stupid for not covering all the bases from the beginning. It was open-ended and I wish now I would have caught it.
I’m having problems with Amigo too. I was an NPC customer, stupid me for trying to save money by going with a company with low rates. Not only did they delay billing me until they could jump my rate to .2469, they ALSO do NOT have a previous meter reading for me, so the jerks assumed the previous reading to be zero and charged me for the full amount of electricity logged by my meter SINCE INSTALLATION. I did get through to them on the phone, and after one rep hung up on me, the next guy says the bill is valid no matter if there is an overage and I MUST pay it, and IF they determine there was an inaccuracy, it will be handled as a refund. It took two months of multiple requests just to get a bill… how long can they delay on a refund? Sorry, mi amigo…. I smell an impending bankruptcy and I don’t want to see my money go down the tubes with you. I’m trying to contact the TDSP and my next messages will be to PUC, BBB and TX Att Gen.
It seems that the nearly 200 consumers who were notified by National Power of price hikes in their fixed-rate plans who complained to the PUC, and subsequent PUC actions, landed all the rest of the former National Power customers in a company called Amigo. Amigo waited two months to bill me and raised my rate from .1143 to .24+ per kWh.
There is no documentation of any kind that I agreed to the switch. Amigo did not send a Letter of Authorization. Amigo did not disclose the price of the plan that they were putting me in nor allow me to choose one of their service plans on their website. In fact none of the Chapter 25 Substantive rules applicable to Electric service providers, Subchapter R. Customer Protection rules for electric service were followed. It appears that when we were switched, Amigo elected to just plunder their new customers. I don’t believe this was the intent of PUC’s S25.474 Selection of Retail Electric Providers.
There are no ethics or friends at “AMIGO”.
I encourage everyone who has been slammed to file a complaint with the PUC
SLAMMED,CHEATED BY AMIGO ENERGY. I was NPC customer who was sent to Amigo. The minute i got the notice i switched to another provider. After 2 months Amigo sends me a bill for $406 at .24KWH. My rate with NPC was .11 KWH. I cannot get anyone on the damn phone number they have list on the bill. I went to the PUC website and complained. Any other options folks have had any luck for fighthing these CROOKS!!
IS THERE A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THESE FOLKS ?
COUNT ME IN.
AMIGO ENERGY IS CROOKED !!! I HAVE PREVIOUS 2 POSTS. DO ***NOT*** DEAL WITH THEM FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY. I HOPE NO ONE GETS GOUGED AND CHEATED LIKE I AM.
I WAS TAKEN FROM .11 KWH TO .246 WITHOUT ANY NOTICE AND SLAMMED. CANNOT CALL A SINGLE PERSON AT THIS COMPANY. HOLD FOREVER OR GET YOUR LINE DISCONNECTED WHILE TALKING.
THESE GUYS ARE LEGITIMATE CROOKS.
We were auto switched from National Power company to Amigo. We were paying NPC $.145 per KWh.
They switched us AUTOMATICALLY!
So Amigo waits 2 months to send us a bill.
I had no idea this whole time it was at $.2419.
Guys seriously, I greened up my house like crazy.
For 5 kids, a wife and myself in our 3500 sqft home we used 1355 KWh in 1 month.
For 1 month our charge was $327. That is an OUTRAGE for 1355 KWh.
Any class action suit please post here. Our 5th child was born 1 week ago just to get BILKED by some company. Our baby needed a new car seat and I guess we will just have to give the money to rip off artists instead.
Texas PUC should be notified immediately. Class action suit get ready.
I have the identical scenario: was switched from National Power and rate up from 0.125 to 0.2469, just got my bills on 8/12/08, for June and July (up to 7/17/08). I believe none of us has received bill for after 7/18/08, who knows what rate is going to be?
After 2 days continueously trying to call their customer service, I got to talk to a ‘manager’, which was a very rude female. She refused to give me any adjustment and didn’t care whether I switch my provider.
Seeing all of these complaints, I don’t think filing complains is enough to help the situation. The only option left is a class action. But, before that, could someone tell me what will happen to me if I don’t pay the bill?
I am transfered to Amigo Energy by National Power Company with a simple notification without mentioning anything about the rate. I also never receive anything regarding the rate or bill from Amigo Energy until yesterday (8/13). To my surprise, I was charged with a rate (24.69) about 50% higher than I used to pay to National Power for two months (June and July). However, I notice that the rate Amigo charges is posted only until July 1, 2008. How can Amigo charges customer a later posted rate on a earlier reading?
When National Power informed us regarding the change of provider, we normally assume that everything (including the rate) should stay the same or at least similiar. That is the common practice in business world in Texas or in the United States. I feel I have been purposely delayed the bill,and charged an exorbitant, non-competitive rip-off rate too.
I am eagerly to join the class action against Amigo Energy if they refuse to do the business in a honest way by following a common practice of the business world and revise their charges, I am also considering to file a Small Claims Court lawsuit for deceptive trade practice.
I would like to see someone come forward to lead us and take some action together!
I just got a bill in the mail from a company called Amigo Energy in Houston, TX. I was previously with National Power Company and received my last bill from them with a cutoff date of May 31. I was shopping for a new plan anyway because my NPC contract had just expired. On June 4th, I decided to go with Dynowatt (Accent Energy) with a one year contract and enrolled online. I did not receive an electric bill in June and so I called Dynowatt to confirm that they were my electric service provider. They confirmed that my service as of June 4, 2008 was with them, gave me my account number, but was unable to give me an amount due, yet. Ok… I read my own meter each month and multiplied my usage times my Dynowatt contract price of $0.14/kWh and sent those funds aside. I finally received my first bill from Dynowatt around the first week of August. It was exactly what I thought it would be but only covered from June 30 to July 30. I wondered where the missing June electric bill was. I received this bill from Amigo Energy for that time period at $0.24 per kWh. I don’t know who this company is or who authorized them to be my electrical service provider. I have full blown AIDS and on Long Term Disability from my previous employer. I am still too functional to receive Social Security, so I am not eligible for most assistance programs. Every dollar I get from disability is budgeted very, very, very closely. There is no fun money. Every dollar goes to pay bills. I get my food for the week at the AIDS Food Pantry because every dollar I get goes to paying bills. I do not have the means to pay an electric bill of $465.72 that should have been about $200 cheaper. At this point in time I do not have the energy or the health to fight this matter and don’t have the funds to pay this bill. What am I supposed to do? Any suggestions?
I had the same experience. I received my first bill from theses crooks for over $850. I listened to their lying excuse. I paid in one month over $650. The next bill I received showed a ballance of $149.00 and my new bill for 3wks was >$850.00. In two months they have billed me over $1600 dollars for a bill that is usually approximately 230 to $250per month. I would love to join a class action suit against these shiesters(sp). I did an online complaint with PUC. I have switched providers. The quickest way to do this with out waiting 30 - 45 days is to start a new service and this takes about 3 working days. You cancel theses crooks one day after you arrainge another company to start the new service, This way you don’t lose service. I would think the PUC would have acted on these people by now. The attorney general should have helped us Texans by now.
Looks like we all should let media including tv and newspaper know the redicular situation involving National Power and Amigo Energy, how so many customers being rip-off. I believe this event possesses the character of a good news report.
I received a $950 bill from Amigo, I was supposed to have .19 cents kWh rates it came to .246 cents kWh. I too had NPC, I filed a complaint with the BBB and PUC. Hope something helps us!
I am disputing about $700.00 worth of Amigo charges on my visa card. Visa is very reliable about siding with their customers but I am still keeping my fingers crossed. The PUC and BBB are pretty useless.
I am in the same boat as the rest of you all. Amigo energy actually sent me a letter upon the switch stating that I was going to be charged 16.5 cent a kWh. Not satisfied, I switched over to a cheaper company only to receive a “final Bill” from Amigo for $815.86 for 6 weeks of service. I have posted my complaint to PUC and am waiting a response but quite frankly I want answers to this ludacrist amount of overcharges. Is there anyone out there more judicial savy than me to start this class action lawsuit?
Same thing happened to us. We were paying .12 per kWh with NPC and now .24 with amigo. Isn’t there something in the terms of service that says they can’t increase the rate more than 10%?? And if so, that’s a breach of contract!! The last bill from NPC was $59.49. We waited 2 months for the bill from amigo and they sent us a double bill of $547.69! We live in a tiny 1000 square feet apartment and do not have that kind of money! I am wanting to switch but can anyone tell me which company is the best to switch to?
Another question. Did you guys get your deposit back from amigo when you switched?
I hate to say the same thing but this HAS to be ILLEGAL. I was a National Power Co. customer. I heard rumors of their failure and contacted Direct Energy. However, during the 7 weeks for Direct to activate my account Amigo billed me $919 @ .24 per KWH. They purposely did not send me a bill until the final bill so I could not do anything about it. From all the posts I am not hearing any suggestions.
Thanks to God I saw these message postings and read them before deciding on my new electric provider. I was looking at Amigo as they showed the lowest rates and cancellation fee.
Thank you all for posting your rip offs from Amigo. I really hope that you all get some legal help and media attention. This is truely criminal.
Unfortunately I did sign up with Amigo about three weeks ago. Anyone know how to get out?
I think Amigo Energy / Vega Resources LLC is going out of business.
The PUC website has them at the lowest rating possible.
If you have service with them, I suggest you get out now.
If you are in a POLR or variable rate plan, you can get out in a few days by asking your new electricity provider for an ‘out of cycle meter reading from Centerpoint for $6 at time of switch.
Amigo is a ripoff! I also got switch from NPC and when I barely got my bill (Jun and Jul) to my surprise it was .24+. What? Are you kidding me! From being .125 to .24+. I am a single guy that don’t used that much electricity and my billed was 3 times as higher as a “summer” billed. Wow! Now Imagine if you are a “Family” and with that rate! Just wow! I already filed a complain with PUC and Texas Attorney! After reading all these comments, I will not pay a dime to those crooks! I get a bad credit but I don’t care. Bunch of crooks!
Unfortunately i am going to be stuck with amigo because switching will require a 500 dollar deposit which i don’t have right now because amigo has billed me for 547.69!!!!!!!!!
It is impossible to get through to customer service on the phone. You will have to hold forever!
I have filed a complaint at PUCT last week and received a letter from PUCT saying they are investigating Amigo, and Amigo is required to submit a formal response to the investigation within 21 days.
I think I am not required to pay before I receive more information from PUCT then.
Anyway, I urge you all to do the same.
I went with Amigo in May with a teaser (introductory) rate. They jacked up my rate to over 20 cents/kwh and the next month to 24 cents/kwh. If you want to change to another provider, it is quickest to request a disconnect and then schedule the reconnect with the new provider for the following day. Otherwise it takes a month to get the service transferred to the new provider. That is my experience. Love to see Amigo go the way of NPC.
PS: To my previous comment. It really does seem that they are taking advantage of the NPC problem by overcharging it’s customers. More than likely to get themselves out of the “Red Ink” of their Mismanagement.
hey guys amigo was on the news!
here is the link:
http://www.wfaa.com/sharedcontent/dws/wfaa/latestnews/stories/wfaa080822_lj_electricity.11fb70f.html
I paid a deposit when I signed up with them, kept my account current for a year thru DIRECT DEBIT and then asked for a refund check on my deposit. According to the information on my sign on sheet you can request a refund after being current on your bills for 12 months. I still have yet to receive MY money. Apparently, from what I was told I will not be getting my money because they credited my account for the amount and the transaction cannot be reversed. Funny, my checking account was still debited for the month of August.
Our $200-$300 light bill became an over $500 light bill.
When National Power got out of the market and switched us to Amigo without our consent, I called Amigo and spent hours on hold and was hung up on repeatedly after the customer service rep on the other end would say “hello this Louis/Ramona/Bob, thank you for calling Amigo energy, how may I help you?” They would repeat their greeting two or three times and then hang up.
At first I thought there was something wrong with my phone, then I thought there was something wrong with their phone system, now I realize it is a delaying and stalling tactic on their part.
I finally got through to a rep and was told the rate would be between .15 to .19 but ended up being nearly .25.
I just spent twenty minutes on hold and got the “lalala I cant hear you” treatment.
I am switching and may tell Amigo to kiss my *ss over the the .2469/kw bill, credit score be damned!
I am also calling a few attorneys I know to see if there is a class action lawsuit going against these sh*tweasels yet and if not, then find out which law firm would be interested in starting one.
I’ll post more as I find out.
“Evil men prosper when the righteous do nothing.”
I emailed them on august 20th and i got an automatic reply that said
“Thank you for your inquiry. A Customer Service Agent will respond to your inquiry within two business days.”
Its been 6 days…
WOW, so I’m not the only one? I also had an electric bill which was generally 70-80 (I’m pretty frugal) go to $250 last month. And this is after they told me I wasnt eligible to upgrade when I tried to because I thought my contract was over. Question, my payment was due on the 23rd of this month and I switched companies but the new company wont take over until the 25th of September. Can I get away with not paying Amigo till then? Cuz I sure dont plan on it. I am sure my credit wont be affected that much as I have never missed a payment in my life. But I am worried they will cut my power. If there is a lawsuit please count me in! Thanks
Reading through these complaints makes me laugh, though I’m unsure why. I found this site out of a want for telling my own story about a sleazy, unscrupulous, company, Amigo Energy, but I see I’m really late to the party. I’ll not bore anyone with my story, but I would like to say that I am in complete agreement with “Stand Up And Fight,” (letter of 26 August 2008; 3:51 P.M.). I paid approximately 75% of my last invoice, and the balance be damned. Sleazemigo can’t ruin my credit; I’m too old & my credit score too high. However, there are many, it would seem, who can be hurt by Sleazemigo’s tactics. If “Stand Up And Fight” does manage to get a class-action suit of some kind rolling, I’ll join and donate anything I would collect right back to the attorneys who handle the case. I can’t understand why this group of bottom-dwellers hasn’t been assassinated. It sounds like such a good idea. For the record, I can be reached at mshill@mail.com
FOLLOW-UP TO MY POST OF 26 AUGUST 2008; 10:56 P.M.
I would humbly suggest that everyone file a complaint about Sleazemigo with their local Better Business Bureau & the Public Utility Commission. This can be done on-line, or, at least, I was able to do that. And it may help stop other unsuspecting souls from falling prey to this “Den of Thieves.”
mshill@mail.com
It’s been 16 days since I wrote my compaint to the PUC and I havn’t heard anything, not even a “Recieved your complaint” E-mail. Has anyone received anything form the PUC or BBB in regards to their findings?
