Freedom power is owned by Ken Weaver a lifelong con man, thief, and drug dealer. He owns a bunch of marijuana dispensaries in Colorado called Rocky Mountain Farmacy and is ripping off peple and threatening their lives if they tell the police what he’s doing. This guy is a scumbag. He even tells people he is a cancer survivor.

THIS COMMENT IS FOR ALL OF FREEDOM POWER, ya’ll are truly sorry people and you should be ashamed of yourselves for shutting a terminally ill woman’s power off!!! Really like you all don’t make enough money to lend a helping hand to someone in her condition! You obviously have no heart if you were able to do that w/dignity.
My grandmother died in May of this year from terminal cancer and she also had to fight the people to give her some slack in her bills. So I know what it feels like to see my loved one suffer and worry her little heart out even when she was dying! So why don’t you all just listen to what someone has to say and there situation before you go cutting there electricity off !! Kay thanks!

After having service with Freedom Power for only 5 weeks, I have had my service disconnected once, and come within minutes of a second disconnection. The first disconnect was done within 18 hours after receiving a text message only–No bill or other notice whatsoever. The second time was today, three weeks later. The only communication I have received this time was a disconnect notice saying a rediculously large amount was due by the 12th of October. This notice was received yesterday, October 7th. And at 9:30 a.m. this morning, a person from Oncore energy was here to disconnect me again. Seeing the notice had the 12th written on it, the gentleman gave me time to make arrangements for payment, which was done. At no time have I received an actual bill, or any accounting for the power that I have actually used. Could anyone tell me, please, at what point does Freedom Power have to account for the amount of money they’re taking from me, as compared with the amount of electricity I’m using? At some point, should’nt they have to give me an accounting of the number of kilowatt hours I’ve actually used? Amd how many times are their CUSTOMER SERVICE people going to use the excuse that they have sent a bill, and I just didn’t get it? I realize their service it based on estimated upcomining usage, but why do I never get an actual bill for the upcoming month, but always get a disconnect notice instead? Where do they get their figures from, anyway–are they just making them up, because I have yet to see anyone actually read my meter, except when they come to turn the power off.

I’ve been with Freedom Power in Houston for a couple of years. At first a had a few problems with them. But, whenever I ask to speak with a supervisor, They were always willing to put one on the line. I complained aout my usage and how they can’t estimate my bill. I explained to them that I would not have any problem filing a lawsuit, because there are attorneys in my family and they would love to take them on with no problem. It wasn’t a threat just the facts. They did over charge me and after raising hell, the credited $89.79 to my bill. Then they called me a few months later and explained to me about an over charge. The following month, I had no bill. Then after that, I had no problems with them since. My start up fee was $83.23. I never had to pay an additional deposite and my elctricity was changed over within 2 days and has never be disconnected. I believe they do the things they do, because it will take a long time before anything is done when you complain through PUC. I’ve read most of the stories and it’s ridiculous. But if everybody get together and keep pushing the issue and not give up, PUC will take this seriously and take action. You might need to exploit them on the news. Akins Army might be the answer. I won’t mind switching my electricity if it takes getting scammmers out of the system.

these MF pist me off, they told me that all i needed is 146.20 to turn on my service. I called to check the status later that week and they told me that i needed to pay an additional 275.00 in order for them to put on my lights and it will still take 3 to 5 business days i have been waiting already. I called back to get my full refund and they told me that they where going to take $60.00 out, i told them no they did not sh*t so i ask to speak to the superviser and there was no one there.
AM TAKING THIS TO AKIN!

MY ADVISE STAY AWAY FROM FREEDOM POWER AND TELL FRIENDS ABOUT THEM!
