Keep it coming Just Energy
After 2 years and 1 month I am very satisfied with me electric plan.
It is all that was advertised. Keep it coming Just Energy Texas! — Satyaswaroop from Plano TX
Good competitive pricing
So far very happy and no problems with billing. Good pricing. Easy to switch over. — Happy cat from Mesquite TX
Stay away from Just Energy
This is one of the worst electric providers i have signed up with. The rates were high when I signed up but as the rates were going down, I called them several times to see if they can move me to a cheaper plan which they were offering to their new customers. Zero help from their customer service. They keep saying that you can switch anytime but all their plans are expensive and want to lock you into a 60 month plan. I have never paid so much for electricity in the last 3 years together what I have paid in the last 4 months with Just Energy. I finally switched to another provider even if I have to pay the termination fee of $175. It will still work out better for me in the long run. You have been warned. — George from Coppell TX

Honest, straight forward policies
I have been with U.S. Energy for only a few months. I found the experience to be very straight forward, no games, with honest people and logical policies. Their information and sales plan centers on long term contracts that provide a security hedge against rising electricity prices - a given?

Excellant company
I have been with Just Energy since May 2009 - I have found them cooperative and pleasant. They explained to me my alternatives. They have unfortunately been blamed for "Ercot" charges. They offer a bundled rate - their contract is very fair. I have read it. Those that complain do not realize how much the would be paying with their old supplier. In the words of Ron White "You can't fix stupid."

Concering Just Energy
I am a customer and an Employee of Just Energy since 2008. I have also taken advantage of their green energy program. I am not writing on here to convince people to take this program, it truely speaks for itself. Although our NY market is relatively new and I have not seen the end of a 5 year program. I am aware of their high percentage of customers, North America Wide, that resign after their term ends. I'm sure most people realize that people are more likely to call and complain than they are to call and make a complement. I'm just not sure people are fully aware of what this company is capable of.

Change of Heart About JustEnergy
I had originally given a poor review and wished the death of this company. I change my mind. I had a contract for 16.3/kwh when the rates were in the 20's 3 years ago. I finally decided I would pay the fee for ending the contract early and called them about 3 times and sent several emails asking how much the fee would be and then letting them know that I was going to another company for a better rate if they would not reduce my rate without penalty. They did! My rate went from 16.3 to 10.5 immediately, as I said after about a month of calling and emailing. Also, it wasn't as low as I requested. I wanted 9.0 which was what I saw as the average for the competitors. I am satisfied with JustEnergy at this point.

Happy Camper
They have a lot of offers, variable plus fixed 1 year up to 5 years. I ended up choosing a 1 year fixed with them, as I have a 1 year lease. Green was 2c more but I opted not to for the time being.
A friend told me about them. Although, I chose them because the price was great, got a bonus gift card, and they are a big name.
Customer service call was almost flawless, got put on hold for a few minutes while they checked credit.

SUPER DUPER LOW PRICE. OMG!!!
I've had Just Energy for 3 months, and I've been astonished with the price primarily. I have the 40% green option and even with that, my bill has never been more than $20. Before this my bills were always between $55-$60. I'm very happy with the savings I'm making!!!! I am telling everyone about this company. I would recommend it 100%.

Long Term Contracts
Just Energy has the most beneficial electricity program that can be offered for commercial or residential. The longer the protection, the better in the long run for my accounts and my budget. Who wouldn't want to lock in the price of anything for 5 years? The cost of everything goes up constantly, but not my electric bills! :)

Awesome Awsome Awsome
I was always very skeptical about choosing a supply company, and read a lot of bad reviews, but I still decided to give it a try. Now that I have been a Just Energy customer for well over 2 years I have to say it was the best decision I ever made for myself. Now that I understand how this program works and all of the terms, I'm able to see that a majority of these bad reviews are from people whom are confusing Just Energy for different supply programs. The terms are simple and easy to understand and my rep was very professional and polite. I did take advantage of the option to lock my gas and electric rates a few months back and now my energy cost are so much lower than the utility, and my cost won't change for the rest of my term. This company is so awesome and honest. I have recommended it to all of my friends and family. I really hope people get their facts straight before posting complaints about this company cause it is making them seem oh so silly.

Truly what they say it is
I switched to just energy from TXU when a door to door sales rep came to my door and explained how my price will not change for the next 5yrs and that it would be one charge only!!! When I got my bill it was exactly that! I'm too busy to be worried about what company to switch to and with this company I don't have to worry about it at all. LOVE IT!

No problems
I had no problems with just energy. I think the key to this is to pay your bill on time. My reason for switching was due to price. I am of the opinion that no electrical provider has better electricity than the other, therefore my biggest concerns are pricing and service. A lot of problems can be alleviated by reading your EFL and asking questions about things that you do not understand. During my contract I found their reps. to be courteous and friendly.

The key to getting with any company is doing your research, Just energy is one of the largest companies out . Regardless of ppls complaints in which every large company will have, they service over 5 million customers. Their a green company and also publicly traded so for everyone who gets on here trying to hop on the "Company Bashing Bandwagon" , stop the pointless complaining and get informed. Great company as far as I'm concerned

Glad I forgot to cancel! Saved me money!
A just energy sales men came to my door explaining to me that my rate was eligible to go down and that I was paying a separate delivery charge to centerpoint. So when I realized reliant was charging me 18 cents I automatically was down to switch...then I went online and looked at the reviews and almost shitted on myself. I was so scared I had been ripped off and scammed. Anyway I planned to cancel but ended up forgetting and got my first bill a little over a month later and man was I surprised! I saved almost $100!!! What I will say is the rep was very honest with me. She told me that there were cancellation fees but IF I call the 1888 number on the top of my contract they would be waived. You have to call for them to be waived. I've been having them for 6 months now and as a previous loyal reliant customer I must say I don't regret switching. I've also heard they have a new program

Great company! Give them a CHANCE!!
I had my first door to door with keisha a couple of months ago.She had an accent and I found out she was from New York. Don't usually talk to anyone who knocks on my door. I was hesitant on giving her my bill, but she was more helpful than anything. She broke down my bill for me showed me my true rate and then explained to me what just energy offers. I have seen the bad reviews from the past and told her I didn't know. She understood didn't push it. I finally said let me sign up cause I felt this really can help me from what she showed me. Everything she told me was true, she was straightforward, very confident, patient and she wasn't trying to push me to get it. Sounds like they just need more door door people with her smile and honesty. I am happy with my bill and will remain a customer. If I had any problems she also informed me to contact her directly so that she is aware and can address the situation as soon a possible. Just Energy does have good people working for them!

Cheers for Just energy
First of all my electric bill has been about 15% less overall than my previous electric company's bill. Secondly, I was recently laid off from work and have had a lot of problems making ends meet. Just energy has actually cancelled late fees and given me all the extensions I needed during these hard times. Also their rewards for customer loyalty aren't half bad. I highly recommend them.

I was approached at Sams club by Just Energy representatives a couple months ago and I was a bit scared at first because I had been with TXU for 5 years. However, I learned I was actually paying too much when the representative compared my bill to how much I would be paying with them. My bill has been under $100 so far and I am really content with Just Energy. No more centerpoint fees! Thank you.

I was told that the bill will be cheaper, but when I saw a bill today. It's higher than what I got charged from another electric company. My electric bill never goes up over $100 my usually charge around $80, but my current bill with Just Energy is $115. The sales rep told me that it will go down. Instead of going down, it goes up. That's not a good point of changing the company

Poor Customer service
First of all I am happy with my rate and service from Just Energy. I am however not happy about the customer service end of it. My bill came due 4 days before my payday so I called to extend the due date and I end up speaking with a foreigner I could barely understand and although I've always been on time previously, she wouldn't budge and charged me with a $20 disconnect fee along with a 5% of my bill late fee.

Stay away from Just Energy
This is one of the worst electric providers i have signed up with. The rates were high when I signed up but as the rates were going down, I called them several times to see if they can move me to a cheaper plan which they were offering to their new customers. Zero help from their customer service. They keep saying that you can switch anytime but all their plans are expensive and want to lock you into a 60 month plan. I have never paid so much for electricity in the last 3 years together what I have paid in the last 4 months with Just Energy. I finally switched to another provider even if I have to pay the termination fee of $175. It will still work out better for me in the long run. You have been warned.

I am a customer of Just Energy and and employee as well. The only time my bills are high is around Christmas time with all the lights we have on. My contract is almost up and I will resign with them; not just becasue I work there but because they do save me money. If you are being over charged...look at your usage and multiple...do the math. It is not that complex. If you are not getting an actual meter read...then call centerpoint. complain to them since all Just Energy does is bill you for what is used. We don't service you or read your meters. Get Educated!

I did not have a problem with my gas when I had an account. The apartment I was living in had a fire so I had to cancel my service. I was suppose to get my deposit back but for about 2 months they have been telling lie after lie about my deposit the Reps wont let me speak to a supervisor. It's not a lot of money but like they want the monies for their services I want my deposit back. I Rep told me 3 weeks when the 3 weeks came i called back now they tell me it was applied to my account what account? Another told me they sent it to the bank.what bank.i never gave them any bank info. Why is it so hard to get my monies or even get the truth from this company. Hopefully someone will get in touch with me about this matter

Double charges to credit card
I have been with Just for over 7 years never had a problem paying my bill on the phone till June and July called the number as I have before and paid the bill and next day check my account and had been charged twice call just and was told they only show being charged 1 time after talking to people I got a lady from Houston who straight it out then paid my bill in July and was charged twice again talked with customer services and got it straightened out again yesterday I received a email stating my bank refused payment called and sent a copy of bank statements to them was told they would look it then was told it a problem with my bank called them and was informed that they refunded one of the July double charges but just energy was paid called just again was told they never double charged at all that why I sent them the statement so just waiting for some one to figure out what they are doing cause everytime I call and get a person have to tell my story over and over and get a different answer. I did ask to speak to the lady I talked to on July 12 but according to my history their was no name of the person I called I find that hard to believe

Unfortunately events
So For the last month I have been dealing with just energy and direct energy. I canceled with direct energy for other reasons and continued with Just Energy. My power recently got cut off today due to someones negligence. I signed up for both electricity and gas and apparently have only been getting billed for gas? So I am now on a timer for the next couple days. I am not impressed! I love Just Energy and I want to stay but what happened ??! I am super disappointed.

Honest, straight forward policies
I have been with U.S. Energy for only a few months. I found the experience to be very straight forward, no games, with honest people and logical policies. Their information and sales plan centers on long term contracts that provide a security hedge against rising electricity prices - a given?

Month 1 your bill be $70... Month 5 your bill will be $250... they increase in increments every month.

Not renewing contract.
I've been with Just Energy a little over a year. Not once have I had a good customer service experience. Workers speak as if they are in a rush to get off the phone with you and don't take time to explain answers. One example is when I was renewing my contract. I spoke with an individual who was extremely hurried to get me off the phone and failed to answer most of my questions about billing/rates. Their rates are not terrible, but I won't continue to give my money to a company where workers don't feel the need to be polite when answering calls.

Thoroughly Misinformed
I was actually trying to reach Reliant energy when I was searching for an energy company to use when I moved into my apartment but somehow the number I called routed me to Just Energy. The gentleman I talked was very polite and positive as we discussed how Just Energy was actually better on price because they do not use a pass through charge like everyone else does and that there was no contract cancellation fees like everyone etc.. etc...So I complied with signing up with Just Energy, moved into my apartment and have never had a problem with my energy, until my bill came. I have a 644 sqft apartment that I am at barley 4 hours a day minus 8 hours of sleep (but everything is as it is as if I'm gone when I am asleep). Long story short, the only thing running during the day is my AC set at 80 and my refrigerator. Now here comes the downfall, with just my fridge and ac running, and 3 hours of tv a day apparently I'm using 758kwh at .095 cents, no way, so I check my bill, well on my bill I have a PASS THROUGH charge which I was told they do not do, first lie, secondly I'm thinking to my self theres no way and I'm just gonna change companies since there is no cancellation fee, wrong, second lie, $75 dollars to cancel.In conclusion, I think Just Energy may be a large company but there core basis of business is designed like a car dealership where as it uses flashy shiny phrases to lure you in and then lie and steal your money like a bunch of crooks. Would not recommend.

Exit Fee
Just energy disappointed me at the beginning when I signed on for a new account. I signed on for one year, but when I received my first bill it listed my contract for three years. I called and disputed this contract but they advised that their records reflected a 3 year account, Since the rate was reasonable, I did not pursue a prolonged complaint process. On November 18, 2017, I received a notice that my plan will expire on 1/2/2018. "NO TERMINATION FEE SHALL APPLY IF YOU TERMINATE YOUR CONTRACT 14 DAYS PRIOR TO 1/2/2018. AND IF YOU CALL US AT 1.877.240.3931 YOU CAN CANCEL AT ANY TIME WITHOUT A TERMINATION FEE.I contacted a Just energy rep to advise that I was changing to another provider and wanted to notify Just that I was changing and inquired about the termination fee. The rep said no problem, there's never a termination fee. But When I received my final bill, there is a $175 exit fee - which to me is the same as a termination fee. This is really deceptive and misleading to the customer. I plan to pursue this deceptive practice with the Public Utility /commission and Texas Attorney General Office. Even though I will pay this disputed exit fee, I am now very distrustful of just Energy and will not recommend Just Energy to my friends or family.

They only post good reviews
I've been a customer for 5 years pay my bills on time and never had any problems until the last couple of months. Customer service fail to follow through on the contract that I needed to place after mine expired. They said they call me they never did and they never left a message and called me a liar as to a new contract in new rates. I've called several times they have gouged me on my last bill because I didn't have a contract and they charge me $0.16 per kilowatt which I find very disgusting. All my other bills were at 12 and 13 cents per kilowatt I will never do business with anybody that treats me like you have treated me again. I called and requested a rewrite change on my last bill because I do live on Social Security and I can't pay the whole bill if that gouging rate. I have never been so insulted in my life do not ever do business with these people they told me no unless I sign a new contract at an outrageous and they have no good plans available I've already been offered a better plan with $100 signing bonus. Never been so disgusted my life with an electrical provider don't ever use these people and don't believe all the good comments

What Customer Service?
We are moving and I added my new address to the existing plan with Just Energy and wanted to EXTEND the power for my current house until we can sell it, but after I added my 2nd house the killed my portal access. Not that I forgot my password I mean my email is NOT IN THEIR SYSTEM!!!!!!! What stupid group of idiots do that? So when I call, I cannot get a sole to answer the damn phone. I was on hold for over an hour yesterday WAITING! Then I was prompted to have someone call me back... I got a call from the state of Washington from a Hudson Electric and when I explained my problem they were going to transfer me and I was dropped... yep they dropped my call. Someone from this POS company had better answer the flipping phone or write me back ASAP or I will process with my report to the Utilities Commission about this horrible service. BTW I rate their Customer Service as a 0 but this stupid system requires an answer.

Collection policy
Just energy was fine overall. I am retired and hence have a monthly budget. I somehow missed a payment and couldn't have been more than 3 weeks behind. When they called me I told them I would pay it within a couple of weeks. I was told that if it wasn't paid now, they would cut my power off during 108 degree days. Only time I was ever late, I couldn't believe they would even threaten to leave a senior without power in July.

Just Energy Experience
I was hospitalized for a month. During this time my family moved my belongings out my apartment. My bill was not paid while I was hospitalized. On the day after being released, I paid my bill in full. Later that day, I received a text about my account. Upon calling the number, the agent was rude about the questions I asked. I also asked about my Just Energy Peak Points, that I accumulated doing paying my bill on time and I thought I was a valued customer. Have about 9,500 points which I can covert to a gift cards. I feel disrespected by this company, because I had illness, and needed to hospitalized, I been denied of points, I earned. And the by the way, I was in the V.A. Hospital.
Thanks for a terrible

Horrible Customer "NO" Service
Okay, well, you JUST LOST A CUSTOMER. Thanks for showing your TRUE colors in this time when you could have been much more supportive. Apparently, your last communication that said, "We are working with your utility company to get actual usage for these days, which means the actual usage would be zero during the times your power was out. If applicable, you will see adjustments in the coming days," was just trying to placate a customer. And even though you claim that the price per kwh did not increase with the exorbitant rates of ERCOT, you figured out a way to make up that money. Very creative. I STILL DID NOT HAVE ELECTRICITY for 3 days in which YOU claim I used about 277 kWh of electricity. So GOOD JOB. You know, I wasn't asking for the whole bill to be reassessed and CORRECTED. Just the days that I KNOW I had no electricity usage. Shame on you. I understand everything you said about increased usage during colder weather. That all makes sense. What makes NO SENSE is that you can't even admit the estimation, or worse, the falsification of the energy usage during the days when there was no power. How ludicrous! I realize YOU hold all the leverage: if I don't pay the falsified bill, you will suspend my service and report it to the credit bureaus. But I can do some things. I will be very aggressive in letting everyone I know that this company falsifies meter readings and is REALLY NOT THAT INTERESTED in customer service.I will contact Sam's Club home office to let them know my dissatisfaction with this company that they supported. Hopefully, they will see you for what you are. I will also post reviews EVERYWHERE possible to alert others about your refusal to even admit that you do what you do.

door hit me on my way out.
I had Just Energy for several years. They emailed my monthly total due, and paying was no trouble. When my contract ended, they made me feel my business was unwanted. They called me so many times! Daily, and sometimes multiple times a day, to remind me that my rates were going up, and that my contract was ending. Someone from California said that my rate was good, but of course, all my Texan friends laughed. I am now looking for a new company, one that hires Americans and that appreciates my business.

Completely dumbfounded
I started today out by chatting with Anita who couldnt understand what I was typing and directed me to sign in to my account, where I clicked on chat again and viola...ANITA. I then attempt to ask questions thinking ok I am logged in, verified this should be easy peasy...nope. I was redirected to an agent who wasnt helpful at all either barely allowed any time to ask a question before closing out the conversation. So I decided to call in...bad move. K spoke with Paul first who was so rude no empathy hugging and puffing like he was annoyed by me when he asked me for my account # and I said oh ok hold on let me get it but it was ok for him to ask me for my name that I had given him at the beginning of the call. Paul proceeded to assist. I let Paul know I have been out of work since 7/30, due 3 of my younger kids getting Covid then I did myself. I returned to work today and also received a disconnect notice with today date over the weekend. I let him know I am not able to pay anything
today, need to know my options. Paul
proceeded to answer, without even acknowledging the fact that k had Covid no empathy anything. He let me know I could pay $156 and some change within 24 hrs of today and remaining amount within 10
Days. He stated my disconnect date was actually today so it needs to be paid today or my services will be disconnected tomorrow. I let him know thats not possible tried to let him know I understand the payment arrangement great can I get a couple more days on the disconnect date or protection on my account at least until 8/25 which I can pay then he of course says no and tells me to call 2-1-1. I couldnt believe this so I request a supervisor. He transfers me to Jabeed who is apart of the escalation que. Jabeed comes on the phone guns a blazing. I ask him for his name and he tells me I need to listen to him cause he is going to tell me what to do. I am instantly offended. He begins to huff and puff annoyed and ready to react to my request instead of respond based on what he heard from Paul. His introduction to our convo set the tone for the call. He told me I need to pay half today and the remaining amount in 10 days. I let him know I cant pay until 8/27, 4 more days I need my account to be protected until that date and then I can pay the remaining half the following Friday on 9/3. He refused to work with me and advised me to call 211 and maybe they can help me even though my electricity will be disconnected tomorrow, 2 of your representatives gave me this an option. Even so kindly told me there were no disconnect notices sent out in February what does that have to do with today?? I paid on time then. I had already confirmed he was apart of an escalation team not a supervisor AP k then requested a supervisor and he refused. Gave the standard reply for your company, his words not mine. I cant speak with anyone above him cause he has to email someone and they call me back within 24-28 hrs. I explained to him several times how would that help me if I have a disconnect notice for today? I would not hang up until I spoke with someone. He continued to be rude then he just went silent for about 15 minutes no hold music hoping I would hang up. I said hello no response then I let him know if he placed me on hold he should have actually placed me on hold so I could hear the music. He begins to say he didnt put me on hold but couldnt explain why he went silent he was not reaching out to a supervisor at the time. I explained to Jabeed several times that I only needed time to pay until 8/25 I could pay half of the balance and remaining amount by 9/3. He insisted I could not pay by then. I mentioned the notice I have shows 8/24. At this point is when I realized Jabeed had not actually reviews my account, as he stated hold on let me review your account to see the disconnect date. This was an hour into the call. He only provided me with information given by Paul. They were set to show me, and they did. AN ENTIRE HOUR BEFORE HE REVIEWED MY ACCOUNT. He apologized for this and at this point he FINALLY began to message his supervisor in an attempt to resolve this issue. His supervisor which is a she refused to speak with me and he refused to give me her name. In order to at least protect my account until 11:59pm on 8/24 as Jabeed mentioned, I agreed to the arrangement he offered to pay 25% of the past due amount. When he was setting this arrangement up at that moment he realized that I did have until 8/25 at 11:59pm to pay not 8/24 at 11:59pm. We went through all this for it to be as I requested. He so rudely told me, you didnt say 8/25. I reminded me of how many times I mentioned that date but he didnt hear me cause he refused to help me. We set the arrangement up and I am still unsure if it is correct since my confidence in Jabeed in this company is so low. This representative, Paul, and the supervisor that assisted treated me so unfairly just to be right and bottom line cruel. They didnt listen they saw my name heard my voice and instantly made the decision to not help me. I cant help but wonder if they saw the name Karen, would they have given better assistance. Is this how your company trains to treat your customers? Especially during times such as these?? He was so belittling and disrespectful when all I need was for my account to be protected from disconnection until 8/26 instead o8/24 cause I could make the half payment on 8/25 at this point to appease this company. I refused to go to 2-1-1. Thats for customers who truly need assistance, I can pay. I just fell on hard times. I have referred 6 of my family members to this company and my daughter is enrolling in September and I am up for renewal. I would like for an AVP or above to call me back ASAP. Not a team lead, supervisor, or anything of that nature. The supervisors name couldnt be given but they even refused to allow me until 8/25 to pay. 1 hour and 30 minutes later I got the results I needed...I hope. Instead of paying 25% as he offered I am paying 50% of the last due amount on 8/25 and remaining amount on 9/3. I have never been so disrespected when I was with Stream and when this contract is up that is who I am returning to.

$20 Notice of Disconnect 3 days after due date
It is egregious and greedy to send out and charge a $20 Notice of Disconnect three days after the due date on a residential account. The late fee charged is reasonable and appropriate in that timeframe. But the $20 Notice of Disconnect three days after the due date is a greedy and a desperate over reach.Since Just Energy ( the owner of Amigo, Hudson, Tara and others) is trying to bounce back from its bankruptcy you would think the best approach would be to attract and retain customers, not shake them down for a one time fee and risk the customer getting upset and leaving Just Energy, and letting everyone they know not to use them.I also feel it is dishonest and sneaky that the portal had the "Pay" amount to include the $20 fee but no where on the site did I see an itemized charge for $20 DN - I discovered it by calling Just and questioning the charge. It is likely an intended tactic so that the unsuspecting customer doesn't realize what they are charged and will likely get hit with a similar charge in the future.

Just Energy = High Price Energy
I have been a loyal customer of Just Energy for several years. At the start their rates were reasonable and their customer service was decent. However since 2020/2021 my bill as nearly tripled for the same plan/rate I have had. Without changing anything at home, my thermostat is set to 80 until 9 pm at night. And resets at 80 starting at 8:00 am. I am on the free nights plan and my bill was $400 for a little over 1,000 sq. Ft. Home. On average my bill is around $150 during hotter months. I attempted to speak with customer service and their response was due to the current market climate and sent a list on what I can do: weather stripping windows and etc. I will be looking to change and go else where for my energy provider.

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I'VE EVER HAD
I have been with this company for years! It was great at 1st. I have a rental home that I needed to complete work at for a couple months. I called to connect service as I have service at my primary residence. I was given my same terms I have on my current account. I had issues immediately. I started getting calls and bills in spanish right away. I tried to get that fixed and was told they could not change it. I was told all I had to do was call to cancel and there would be no fees. I was told there was nothing else I had to do. I paid my bills while I was doing work. I completed the work and the service was cancelled. I was charged a $175 cancellation fee. I have had to call several times trying to get this fixed and I keep getting the run around. I have talked to 2 escalation managers and been given conflicting info. The 1st one (Angel)said he fixed my issues and the fee would come off in about 6 days. It didnt. I called and talked to another one (Murali) who was so rude and not helpful or understanding at all. He actually laughed at one point. I told him many times I did not wish to speak to him anymore and wanted to talk to his boss. He denied me this for quite a while before our call ended somehow at 56 mins! He called back minutes later and said he would put in request for me to talk to his boss and the boss would call me within 48 hrs. It never happend. I since sent a detailed email to customer service addressing all this and never got a response. I have finally filed a complaint with BBB (Better Business Bureau) for 1st time ever in my life in hopes they help resolve this. I have spent hours trying to get this fixed. I want to pay my actual bill. They claim they have calls recorded yet they dont go back and listen. I was told by Murali that Angel did not put anything in the notes and implied I was not telling the truth without actually saying it. Murali was SO RUDE! I just sent another email to another customer service link I found in further hopes this wont get reported to my credit before resolution as I pay my bills. Avoid this company, it has gone to the wayside since the new owner took over it appears

Regret
I called the see about when my plan expires before I renew and to of course shop around for best prices elsewhere it need be.. one rep.told me I had until the end of August so when I called back a week later only for them to tell me it was renewed by my husband in early June which he says he didn't authorize it especially for 5years?! that's absurd.
Im upset with some rude customer service reps. I've gotten over the past year . There's always an issue. Payment arrangements they are good yet again the rude customer reps.. after this I will never use Just Energy!

What out for last bill.
I called the date we were out of the home and this was the following month after. Paid bill for that month which should have been nothing since we were already out of house. Gave them our forwarding address. 4 months letter we received a bill from collections agency. The company made no attempted to even contact us. Just for this reason,. I will never use them again.

Very Dishonest Company - Stay Away From
I would never recommend this company. When I didn't renew with them and switched to a new provider, they billed me for days the new company billed me. $157 for 3 days of electricity.

Good company but unethical sales process
I can tell you that the sales process is really pushy and based on lies. The salesperson knew in advance that I was moving out prior to the 12 months, so he assured me that it was ok as long as, the company could not service the area I was moving to. He offered me in march 2022 to pay the early cancelation fee of the other company ($149 USD) in a reimbursement format, plus no cancellation fee at the end. After the conversation, I did everything they told me and they even send an email telling me that this cancellation fee reimbursement will be charged in my last statement. I called back and customer support assured me(again) that the reimbursement will not be charged at any moment.
After I moved (just as I told them in advance) they charged me the $149 USD, after calling back we settle 75 USD less on this fee (thanks to Amita for her support in this matter), however, I feel the responsibility to tell you that if you want to do business with them be very careful with the small letters on their sales process, dont trust anything theyre telling you unless you can have that in a formal email or somewhere. I end up paying $75 USD for being a fool and trusting the other end of the line.
As for the electricity bill, they help me to pay a little less every month, and I didnt have any other problem with them.

Constantly POOR Customer Service
Sorry but extremely disappointed in your customer service. I will be posting your poor responses to social media and anywhere else I can
After many calls today, I finally got through. Your system was literally dropping me with no voice mail or messages. When I got through, your rep was very friendly and helpful, but gave me some interesting information.
NO REQUEST to process my credit balance was ever submitted by JUST NRG, after two months. How long would you have left that balance outstanding if I didnt call?
Even though you are quite eager to receive customer funds to pay for bills, apparently you are incapable of processing a refund/credit balance. Instead, JUST NRG prefers to take an excessive amount of time (6-8 WEEKS? Seriously?) to create a paper cheque and mail it out.
Are you aware that you then are paying for the paper cheque forms, and for postage? And this is supposed to be more effective HOW?
And the reason for the delay must either be due to poor or inefficient process policies or for underhanded marketing.
Either way, it does not look good to the quality of the management of JUST NRG. Obviously your shareholders come first before your customers. A good marketing person will tell you that if you upset ONE customer, they tell two others, and they tell two others, and so on.
Good luck, and thank you for your previous business.

I Pray They Go Out Of Business
I pray they go out of business so that I can get out of this contract. They held my bill in June and July 2009, a couple of the hottest months in Texas and I have to pay a total of $1500 in electrictiy bills. PUCTX writes to ask them for a deferred billing plan but I will be charged late fees because they held my bills!Also, they are now one of the more expensive providers. PUCTX as usual is very unhelpful and is not about consumer protection. I pray JustEnergy/USEnergy goes out of business so I can choose a provider at a better rate. Of course, with them charging nearly 8 cents more per kwh, they can afford to stay in business longer than most.

Run for your Lives!!!
Signed on with US Energy Savings, with a fixed rate, and the first bill was wonderful, much lower than my previous provider. The next bill wasn't recognized, because it now said Just Energy, so I put it in my junk mail pile. When my lights were disconnected, I learned that Just Energy WAS my electric provider. I saw bills that increased monthly from $300 to $400 to $500 to $600, and cancelled. My final bill with the cancellation is now over $1200--over $800 of that is the cancellation fee. I am a single woman on partial hours and I just feel ROBBED by Just Energy.

Worst Customer service billing experience ever
I have been with this company for over 4 years and finally will change providers. They continously cash my electronic payments then state I didn't pay my bill. I then forward the 3 month history of them actually cashing my cheques and then they change my account status to current. Every month the check is cashed early from my bank and they send me a dissconnect notice every other month. One time they send a bill for over $13,500.00 for usage... My bill averages $250.00/month. It took multiple calls to get them to reverse the charge and correct the bill. They have terrible billing and customer service. This is the first time I have ever actually rated a company but my experience has been so bad for so long I hope a potential future customer can learn from my experience. I will also be forwarding a written complaint to the State energy board. I have never been late on a payment in 4 years but they have disconnected me once due to their own internal accounting issues.

I always pay my bill ahead of time, have proof that they have received and cashed my check days before the bill is due and have received at least 3 cutoff notices. When I call I am put on hold, once for over an hour, then they tell me to pay my bill sooner! I have asked for someone to return my calls to no avail, customer service reps do not care and say "oh well". I would stay away from these folks, they just don't get it.

$310 Cancellation fee even if you move
We used them in texas for 3 years. I moved to Ohio. When we signed the contract the person who came on the door said when you move the contact terminates and there is no termination fee. When we moved and sold our house and cancelled the service, they sent me a bill with $310 for contract cancellation fee. I called the CS and told them about the move, she asked me to send the doc proving the move and assured everything will be settled. I got call another day for the same reason, I explained the person on the phone, he said that you will get a final bill with $0 balance and gave me the confirmation #. Even afetr this they kept calling me everyday (automated calls ask you to press #1 and put u on hold for 3mins to talk to real person). These people were very rude and kept asking for $310 even if i explained that the account is settled. I don't know what to do as they are complete liers. Don't ever even consider their service. They knock your door give you the best rate which is only good for 6months. Don't sign anything just by bilieveing the person who knocked on your door or on the phone.

JUST ENERGY IS TERRIBLE!!!
I signed up with Just Energy from The Power to Choose website. They were supposed to turn on my electricity on July 13th, but did not. Only July 16th-I still had no service and they would not expedite my installation request and said July 19th was the earliest they could get it set up. I ended up having to switch to Reliant Energy who got out the same day as I asked (July 17th). I talked to the director along with others at Just Energy and they ensured me that they cancelled my request on the 19th. Today, I got a bill in the mail from Reliant Energy for only 2 days - Just Energy never cancelled the request for the 19th and took over my service anyway (without my knowledge). Now I cannot switch back to Reliant because my account is frozen for only being activated for 2 days. DO NOT EVER SIGN UP WITH JUST ENERGY!!! It's the biggest mess that I've ever had to deal with. They make claims and will not even give you a confirmation number so there is not way to even have evidence of anything that happens. I am on the phone now waiting to talk to someone and it's already been 30 minutes and I haven't gotten through to anyone. The wait time to speak to a representative has been over 30 minutes EVERY time i've called. If you don't want to sit on hold in tears dealing with idiotic people for hours of your life - DO NOT GO WITH JUST ENERGY!!!!!!

Fees popping up 5 months after service.
I moved and orginally called about Gexa energy but the lady informed me I could get cheaper energy. Which is with this crappy company. First bill was $68 with the $9.95 service charge for 4 days worth of service with 3 kwh of usage...are you kidding me? Everything has been fine for the last 4 months until this bill. A $3.50 charge for not choosing to do E-bill and a $4.95 charge for bill pay because I use the automated service and not the auto pay.I called to ask them and the customer service idiot informed me he could help but could only keep me on the line for 5 minutes because of other customers calling in. Mind you I was on hold myself for 45 minutes waiting on someone to answer the phone. Poor customer service. I should of listened to the reviews the day after signing up and I should of cancelled my service that day. Customer beware!!!

Crooks! Beware of Hidden Charges and Fee's! No Customer Service!
Signed a one year contract to match my lease (thank God only one year). Signing up was very easy and quick, however when I started getting my bills I was being charged almost $20 a month in BS fees. $10 for paper billing, several dollars for manual payment (mailing in a check), fee's for online payments, etc... They were very rude when I called them on the fee's (and it took several calls and hours to finally get them stopped and partially refunded). After all this our rate is still more than two cents higher than most other plans. I cannot wait to get rid of this shady supplier!

They messed up our address repeatedly and we ended up getting threats to have our power cut off if we didn't pay our bill. We never received one since they messed our address up and had to call them to see what was going on. They told us their were late fees and charges added, but didn't say we had any time to pay our bill. Why should we pay for their incompetence on messing up the address!!?!
Switched immediately to another supplier. Customer service rep was demanding immediate payment or we would lost electricity.

Avoid Just Energy, Rates are higher than utility with hidden cancellation fees
Just Energy's sales people will mislead you in the sales process to believe that their company's rates are lower, and that there are no cancellation fees. In fact when I checked my bill, my rates had jumped over 20%, and the demanded a $50 cancellation fee. I was told I could NOT speak to a manager in the service division, and their conflict resolution team has not yet produced my contract or voice recordings approving the transfer.
Stay away from this company, their sales practices are unethical and misleading. If you have friends that signed up for their "Lower Rates" do them a favor and help them get out as soon as possible.

Just energy
They offer the lowest price for the first month, which is 0.08 for only first month and from second bill it is based on market price. But even for the first month it is a lie. They always sending the first bill for 4-5 days, since they are going to give you the bill from the second bill as higher price based on the market price.
they said this is because you order was at the middle of the cycle and it is out of our hand. We send you bill at the time that center point check your meter. But I don't believe it.
The other thing, you have to be careful with the customer service, they will tell you something and then again that charge will be appear at your next month bill. Again you have to call them to dispute. They will waive it but as a favor not this was their fault. This way some people will be tired and not calling them. Just imagine how much they can earn if they make such mistakes in their thousands customer bills.

A NIGHTMARE to say the least. RUN !!!!
I don't even know where to begin. My bills are always incorrect for starters. The bill I received yesterday via email wasn't even mine, it was for a commercial account although it had my account number on it. I almost fell off my chair before I realized the mistake, almost 1000.00 for a small home. Several months ago I signed up for auto debit so I wouldn't get late notices HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I still received late notices, guess what folks?? Takes two months for JUST ENERGY to set you up for auto pay (which they don't tell you) so unless you are totally on top of everything you get a late notice with fees...took me an hour on HOLD before I finally spoke to a rep I could not understand well. To top it off, I started receiving PINK late notices on bills that had been paid for months ??? I can't even explain this to the rep because we can't communicate well enough for me to explain the mass confusion. TODAY I said to hell with this S*** I switched energy providers, I will FIGHT the cancellation fee although I know they will most likely win because they are so unprofessional and you finally give up !!! How in the heck do they even stay in business???? I have never been so upset with a utility company before... Unprofessional is such an understatement. Please don't use JUST ENERGY !!!!!

My first bill was 20.00 more than normal. SO, I started using less electric and not cooking as much thinking that would help. Ha, silly me a month with less usage and no ac and my next bill was even more!!! These people are liars and will tell you anything to get your business.

JUST ENERGY IS A VULTURE LOOKING FOR PREY:
When I called to check their rates and programs I got a very good salesman and no matter how many times I told him I wanted to think about switching overnight he just would not take no for an answer. He finally said dont worry you have 3 days to change your mind before any of this takes effect. DO NOT BELIEVE that scam because that was June 12th and over two months later I am still trying to get everything straightened out and get my $114.43 back that they took out of my checking account. Technically they said I had an account with Just Energy less than 10 hours. Every time I call customer service all I hear is YES, I DO UNDERSTAND, yes and I see you have been calling, this process takes 7 to 10 business days, nothing happens you call back - well that takes another 3 to 7 business days, then we go back to yes I understand but this will take another 3 to 10 business days. We are talking about EFT it does not take 5 minutes to have funds electronic transferred thought the world much less in the US. Why dont they just confess to the public they do not have the funds to refund a persons money? PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THEM find another provider for electrical service.

DO NOT USE JUST ENERGY!!!
I believe that Just Energy and their promotion company conspired to mis-apply my payments and therefore DID NOT SEND THE TWO (2) $75 VISA REWARD CARDS which I should have received. Briefly this is what occurred: (1st) The Just Energy promotion company opened an account prematurely, July 5, 2012, while I was under contract with TXU although I clearly informed him that I was calling to get information on Just Energy's various plans. Two days after he opened the account I became aware of the situation and immediately cancelled the Just Energy account and paid in full for those two days of service while I was under contract with TXU. After my contract ended with TXU, I opened a Just Energy account,8-23-2012. During the first six (6) months. my payments were miss-applied three (3) times! The first payment was applied to the account that was erroneously opened when I was under contract with TXU. (2nd) A payment was processed exactly $20 less than the amount of the check. (3rd) Both of these situations resulted in penalties - however all penalties and fees were removed, after my repeated phone calls, because the mistakes were clearly made by Just Energy and not my mistakes. I made numerous phone calls in my efforts to receive the two $75 Visa Reward cards and followed the instructions provided by the Just Energy employees. The Visa cards were not sent to me. Next, I wrote letters, with supporting documentation, to the Just Energy payment processing office and corporate offices on two separate occasions - NEVER HAVE I HAD A REPLY, NOR HAVE I RECEIVED THE TWO VISA CARDS WHICH I CLEARLY EARNED BY TIMELY FOLLOWING THE GUIDELINES OF THEIR PROMOTION OFFER. KNOW THAT I ALWAYS PAY MY BILLS IN FULL AND PRIOR TO THE DUE DAY. JUST ENERGY CHEATED ME. ALL THE MISTAKES WERE MADE BY JUST ENERGY. THIS WAS CLEARLY ACKNOWLEDGED AS THEY REMOVED ALL PENALTIES. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!!! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!

Beware!!
With the promise of lower electric bills i signed up with the door to door salesman. First mistake! After a month my bills doubled. I ended up moving and it just got worse. The first month i Received my bill from my previous address...i paid it in full. Then i Received a disconnection notice for my new address. When i called i was told that no billing arrangements had been set up??? How do you provide service & not send a bill? So i paid the bill and their Rediculous charges. Now I'm facing another sky-high bill and another disconnection, along with a threatening bill for collections stating that i owe $ from my previous address. Nothing about this company is honest, and they dont give a shit whether you struggle, they are in the game the Deceive people and steal $$. I will not be paying this obsurd bill this time they can shove it. I am lodging complaints with anyone who will listen. These are not fair or honest business practices.

THEY WILL CUT YOUR ELECTRICITY OFF QUICKLY.
I have had electricity with Reliant and Direct Energy - and been happy with them. They upped their rates, so I shopped around. But, last year I was offered a rate that was very low with Just Energy. They have threated me with disconnection the very next day after a bill is due. I have never seen such quick threats to disconnect in 20+ years of electric companies. Bad way to treat your customers. And Just Energy is very quick to cut off your electricity. I found out the hard way. So quick in fact that it border lines on illegal. They sent notice for a bill due on the 16th via email. I have been busy and didn't check it for a few days. Then I was sent a envelope in the mail...not another email or a call. No that would be too nice and friendly of them. This notice I received it in my mail on the 22nd. Unfortunately, I simply forgot to get to my mail and didn't realize it was a disconnection notice and not a reminder. Just Energy cut my electricity off on the 30th - that is just 8 days after the notice came in the mail. No calls, no messages, no additional notice. I paid by phone and it was back on shortly, I was glad for that. I have had homes and electric bills since 1995 not a single company was so quick to cut my electricity off. I was shocked. I called to find out how I could prevent this in the future. They said automatic billing. Fun. Please, if you like to keep the food in your frig cool, do not sign up with them. I beg you...do not. In the state of Texas there is a window of 10 days notice before cutting off you electricity. The notice got to my house on the 22nd and no lights on the 30th. But, since the bill was due on the 16th and the notice mailed on the 19th they claim that they are within their rights. My question is who wants to be treated by their electric company this way? I don't. And do you really want to risk coming home to no lights for missing a payment by a few days? I think not.

They lied
Just Energy used to be "US Energy" but they changed their name due to the bad name they earned in the market place from lawsuits and complaints to the Public Utilities Commission and various state attorney generals. They have an option to pay 1/2 of your bill and then pay the balance in 10 days. I phoned in and set that up only to have my electricity cut on 2 days later. I phoned in and they said they were having communication problems between the collection department and the billing department and it was an error and they would turn back on the electricity....it took them over 48 hours to get it back on during which time my food spoiled. I issued a complaint to the PUC and to show their lack of integrity Just Energy lied to the PUC saying I had not made an arrangement on my past due bill. They have no class but they are a CANADIAN company so there you go. I sued them and got the money for the spoilage. I'd stay away from them if I were you....no trust there with them.

Lie and Over Priced Energy
Just Energy LIE and is a FRAUD.. I have a rental property in Houston, TX that was listed for Rental and wanted to setup temp electricity for the property. I search around; did a price comparison in Houston, Tx and found Just Energy to be the lowest. They advertised a rate of $0.04/km cents for 3 months. Talked to the sales rep; he back and left a voice message confirming that my rate $0.04/km but when the bill came out, it was $0.08/km. I called Customer Services and they give me the run around. I told them that I have a voice message with proof of my rate but they flat out denial it as said they Never Advertised that rateJust Energy is very quick to cut off your electricity. On my conversations with the Sales Rep, I told them its a rental property and to send the bill to my home but they never sent the bill there. My services was disconnected and they charge me a late fee. Frustrated, I just wanted them out; I paid-off the bill only to find out that there is another bill. For a VACANT property with 2 month of Services; I was charged $262.79(all penalties and fees were removed, after my repeated phone calls to Just Energy). I paid it off thinking it was the last time Ill hear from them; NOPE, I was Wrong. They sent me another bill for $82.86 saying that even though the services was disconnected there is still a final bill that I needed to pay. I wasnt told this when I was on the multiple phone conversations with Just Energy Rep(s). This Electric company is a Fraud and they are out to rip you off. Do yourself a favor and avoid them..

Disorganized Incompetence
In today's day and age, they seem oblivious to technology, and every single person there is trapped in a box sized to house an M&M.
When you sign up for e-bill, you, do, in fact get a bill by email. You can do NOTHING with it, but you DO get the bill by email. There is NO link by which to pay your bill or schedule your bill. This, of course, would NOT matter, because when you DO go to their website to pay, or schedule, your bill, you CANNOT. Their "Wal Mart" 3rd party billing company does NOT receive the data to populate the bill until some 2-3 days AFTER you receive your notification. THEN, once you continue to check back for 2-3 days and are actually able to access your bill and schedule the payment, you must re-enter your payment information EVERY, SINGLE time.
For over a year I addressed these issues with them. "Add a link to the bill pay site in your email bill notification." We can't. "Delay the sending of the email bill notifications until AFTER the data has had time to populate your third party billing company's database." We can't. "At least retain my info so paying my bill is a simple click of the mouse?" We can't.
These may seem petty, but they are petty BOTH ways. Simple fixes to make the customer experience more pleasurable AND their cash flow more flowing. They CAN'T.
Nope....they WON'T.
HE GONE!

Just Energy are LIARS
Just Energy send people door to door with sepal to say save you money when they really just want to rip you off and get rich. Promising and good rate and then having another one on the contract they have you sign. SO BUYER BEWARE, Just Energy is nothing but a COARTIST! That $.5.99 cap, is not a cap, it is added to your monthly usages, so in my case I pay by the MCF. SO the monthly rate based on the exchange plus the 5.99 is the really almost double the rate.If You hear the word Just energy run AWAY.

Horrible Customer Service
I was told there was an activation fee of 100 dollars when I went to sign up for Just Energy's electricity. So when I declined they told me they would send me a 100 dollar gift card if I signed up today. So when I accepted they told me they would be sending it in the mail within 6 - 8 weeks. I thought..Cool I can just use that towards another bill. Apparently you have to send in your first bill within a month of activation and put an address on there as to where to send the gift card to. WHAT?! Just send it to the address on file? Isn't that HOME?! So them failing to tell me that resulted in me having to pay 100 extra dollars for absolutely nothing. I ended up having to move to another state and they told me I wouldn't be able to get my gift card anyways because I cancelled my services with them almost immediately after activating with them. I told them I would write a review online about how poor the communication and lack of effort on their end was in resolving any sort of issue. Not to mention the hold time was always 15+ minutes. NEVER again will I be using this company. They will be lucky to even get me to pay the final bill.

Horrible customer service, by far the worst company, billing incorrectly
I signed up for services with Just energy but within the 3 business days that the law gives i cancelled and stayed with my previous provider. Just energy started charging from the day i signed up, even when my electricity hadnt even switched yet, and i know that because my provider at the time called me and asked me to stayed with them, and that they hadnt doen the switch yet. Well, for "3 days of service" with just eenergy, they were charging me $100. i called and they said they were not gonna debit my account and they will erase my bank info so that payment doesnt get processed just in case. Well, needless to say, my bank was deducted that amount. i called customer service several times and after 3 weeks of me calling and calling i saw my refund. however, the customer reps were rude, and because their mistake and postponing my credit to my bank account, i overdrawn my bank account. i have called customer service and ask to speak with a supervisor, and they are never available. they say they would call back, and they never do. i emailed customer service, and same thing, no response whatsoever.
it has been the worst experience. First, they charged for something that i didnt even used, then they say they will credit and will not deduct my bank and they do, and then they take forever to refund my money, and thats because i had to be calling and calling, putting up with rude people. i am just glad i didnt stayed with them, but it has costed me a lot of money just in overdraft fees because of that transaction and nvere getting my money back on time.

CONSUMERS BEWARE!!!!!
Just Energy is the most scandalous company I've ever dealt with. They pull up to our development with a van full of "representatives" and swarm the area, taking advantage of anyone they can. The man that came to our home scammed his way through through selling a 60 MONTH contract with rates higher than I've seen nearly anywhere under the guise that it was "such a great deal". He showed, on his phone, copies of other residents' bills to compare and demonstrate their "savings" while upselling their "green units" as a discountnot the additional fee it actually is! Buyers make sure to read every last detail on your agreements and know enough to do your homework. Their early termination fees are triple most places. They offer a less than 8 cent promotional rate online yet sell door to door residents on a 12.4 cent rate. The representative that came to our house left a fake number with us so we got screwed out of the three day grace period to cancel after trying to reach this guy to get some questions answered. HE was all smooth talk during the sell and coached to call to corporate to sign up. When I had the time, ( it took days of calls and waiting to the ONE number they provide for assistance ) and was finally able to reach their cancellation department, the woman told me if they hear a call being coached, they refuse the sign up. All I was offered was too bad lady, you signed the contract. It's pathetic these people come door to door in the evening, when people are worn out from a hard days work, tell you they're selling you one thing when the fine print says another. This man talked over the phone call the entire time so there was no way of knowing what you've really gotten yourself into until after the fact. This company is about one thing, SCREWING YOU OUT OF YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY. If you want out, you've got to pay not only your monthly bill, but a disconnect fee in addition to $75 PER MONTH left on your contract With 59 months left on ours, that's a whole lot of money. I hope enough people will stand up against these unscrupulous tactics and get these money mongers shut down.

Representatives came to my home on a Monday night. Gave me a bullhorn story about how good the company was. Signed a contract that night. Decided 13 hours later that I didn't want it. Called and canceled on Tuesday morning. Thought all was well. Called my electric company on Wednesday. They informed me that I was no longer their customer. Just energy had already changed my electric company. Now I had 3days to change my mind. They didn't even wait. Then wanted to turn around and charge me $500 cancellation fee. They didn't even wait the 3 federal business days. Do not sign with them. Beware.

My husband is an idiot for going with just energy, sure the plan sounded good with no deposit needed but they screw you over in the long run with ridiculously high light bill. To top that off they charge a $55 late fee every time we pay late. An when I call in to customer service i have to wait 30 minutes to talk to someone. Best light company i have been with in the past is STREAM ENERGY. If my husband hadn't took it upon himself go with this company i would have went back to Stream Energy.

They are liars, they lie to you about rates and plans just to get you to use them and then you end up paying way too much. 200 for the first 2 weeks in my apt and I literally have barely turned on any lights or used anything, I'm not even home most of the time.

We had a nice guy come by the house to promote just energy, and some how ended up being in a contract. He said it was just an estimate to see if my bill would go down. I'm mailing in the cancellation form tomorrow! He never said I was switching my energy provider! They are way more expensive than my current company. 14.1 cents/kwh is ridiculous! I don't care if its better for the planet, I can't afford that kind of rate! Just energy should instruct their sales people to really make sure their customers understand they are selling contracts...I'm so upset! There better not be any complications with my cancellation form. I don't want to switch!

POSITIVELY HORRIBLE AND CROOKED!!
I signed up with Just Energy last September, thinking I was getting a good deal, right? WRONG!!! I at first thought I could understand the high electric bills in the winter because I was using three small electric space heaters, along with one gas space heater to heat my house. However, when the cold weather left, and the only electricity even flowing through my house was refrigerator, two computers (not all the time), and one t.v. part of the time, I could not understand why my bill was still almost $300. After losing my job, then losing my unemployment benefits, I called them to try to negotiate the now $500 bill I had accrued, and was told, no problem, we'll set up a payment plan; pay $120 now and $60 on each bill for the next five months! First bill I got was $300, and the energy charge was only$65; all the rest was BS fees!!! Then I get a disconnection notice, so I called again. The electronic menu said my bill was now over $700, and when I got this little smart aleck girl with an accent on the line, she said it was $800, and that they cannot grant an extensive because I defaulted on the payment agreement!! When I asked how it went from $500 to $700 to $800 in a matter of minutes, she hung up on me. Now they want the entire $800, which I do not have, and don't know of many people who do, and I can't get any other electric service because they have put some kind of hold on me!!! ILLEGAL AS HELL!!! Just waiting for the power to be shut off at any time now, and then I don't know what I'll do.

Scam!!!!
They are dishonest. We signed up for their services by calling Just Energy number. No indications that it is third party. Conditions were negotiated over the phone. Promised rate was 11cents per kW and plan was to be fixed, not variable. My bill was close to $500 (previous bill with another company was $300). The rate on the bill showed 13 cents per kW and variable plan. Customer service talks over you and explains that you've talked to the third party and they are mot responsible for the errors or omissions. I switched immediatelyto my previous energy provider. Just Energy is a real, certifiable scam! Be warned!

So i was also suckered into signing up with just energy...Man came to my door step talking a good deal thi that and the other and i signed up and so far i havent seen my bill lower then 250! Now if i cancel early i will have to pay 500 dollars plus what ever the last bill is that i owe. I cant afford a 250-375 dollar bill every month. So they advertise on their website your rate plan signing up could be as low as 8.7 so i asked about that and she goes thats only for the first month! What! i should have stayed with txu atleast my bill never exceed over 200 dollars. This place is ridiculous and i strongly recommend you stay far far away from it.

Total Scam!! SHOULD BE SHUTDOWN!
Salesman called about two months ago, talk real quick about lowering my rate for my new business. He was advertising a .0660 rate on kilowatt hours. My rate is .0660 alright but the fees assessed on the bill are triple the amount of energy used. The salesman also stated there was no contract which I thought was a great idea. After signing up, being dissatisfied I called and low and behold a 5 year contract. That seems a little excessive so I asked about termination fee the guy told 1400.00 to cancel early . This company if you can call them that should be just down they are a total scam.

If Only I Read the Reviews First - Horrible
The initial sales call was great. The salesperson was very pleasant. All part of the scheme I suppose, because she forgot to mention that while your energy charge is low, the other charges will be ridiculously higher despite how much energy you use. However, she was sure to record everything that she did mention that sounded like a great plan for any small business. I received a bill for $230 before I even moved into the space. Just received the 2nd bill. The charges that they said would only appear in my 1st month's bill are now called something else on my second bill. Called about that and they had this story about power spikes and that's what causes it. Well I haven't really plugged anything up yet because I'm still getting situated. I can't imagine how much the bill will be when I am really up and running.0 out of 5 Stars - My rate for the plan, pricing and promotionAdvice - Find another electric company for commercial service.

Price increase by 50% after first month
Sales pitch is a lie and should actually be sued for fraud.
Introduction rate is reasonable. Was told that indexed price was very similar to introduction rate. With gas and oil price dropping, I believed that my bills would actually go down.
To get an idea of actual rates per month, take their promo rate and multiply by 1.5.
One of the most expensive rates per KW. While some plans offer 8.8 cents per KWatts, I am paying over 12.5 even during this period where oil barrel is less than 50 USD. A real ripp off

DO NOT USE
I am so very disappointment and embarrassed I was tricked into signing up with y'all for my electric service. The man whom I spoke with told me everything I wanted to hear. I wrote down two pages in my notebook of things he was saying and my dad was listening right next to me. And it seems to be now that everything I circled and starred - isn't the truth. The man on the phone SOLD me into using y'all for two reasons - no cancellation fee because I was not sure how long I would need an electric company, as I am getting married and we were not sure of the future living situation and second because even though the fixed rate was higher than most, it would never change and end up being cheaper than the other companies. Wow was I wrong - I am now aware he signed me up under a FIVE year contract. Five. I would never in a million years have agreed to that had I known. As I stated before, the reason I was so attracted to y'all is because it was going to be an easy out if needed because of my uncertain future living situation. And now I find out I have to pay almost $400 to get OUT of the contract that I wasn't aware I was in. $400? Really? Why would I sign up for something if I was going to have to pay that hefty of an exit fee. Yes, it's a hot month but I am the most frugal person on the planet with electricity. It's off during the day and nothing is on or plugged in unless needed. And it was $50 for two weeks. Two weeks - that is outrageous. I am sad I was tricked into falling for this company for all the wrong reasons. I will be leaving as soon as I can save up enough money to cancel. I'm sad this is how you get customers. And for a "customer is our number one propriety" type business you really should be 100% sure that you are being straight forward and honest before they end up in a 5 year unwanted contract.

HORRIBLE
WE SIGNED UP WITH JUST ENERGY WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR HOUSE. THEY SCHEDULED US FOR A CERTAIN DATE BUT DID NOT SETUP UP OUR ELECTRICITY TILL THREE WEEKS AFTER THE SET DATE. WHENEVER WE WOULD CALL THEY WERE RUDE AND ALWAYS OFFERED AND EXCUSE. UPON RECEIVING A BILL FOR 130.00 WE STARTED LOOKING INTO OUR FEES AND WE WERE PAYING 30.00 DOLLARS IN BOGUS FEES THAT WE WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF. THEY EVEN CHARGED US 5.00 FOR A MANUAL PAYMENT WHEN ALL OF OUR BILLS WERE PAID ONLINE. WHEN WE SPOKE TO A REPRESENTATIVE REGARDING HOW HIGH OUR BILL IS CONSIDERING WE HAVE NO ELECTRIC APPLIANCES EXCEPT FOR OUR FRIDGE, NO WASHER NOR DYER, ARE NEVER HOME TILL AFTER 5.

5 year contract and 3 year buyout of 300 after 12 months???
I called them today to see what my usage per month was and the guy could only look back 4 months and had to add it up manually. Then found out I'm 12 months into a 5 year contract paying a whooping 11.5 cents per KWH. They've got to be crazy, I don't sign up for car notes for 5 years let alone electricity for an apartment I'll be out of after this next 12 month lease. I use a little over 1,000 KWH and the going plans are much cheaper and have a 12 month contract. Somehow I was scammed and I'll be breaking this contract ASAP!!11

Just Energy are Door to door scammers. Huge Scam
Don't let these Just Energy door to door scammers even get a word in. They'll sign you up for super long contracts with sky high electricity and natural gas rates. If you try to get out of your contract you'll pay huge termination fees. The door to door sales guys are super pushy and will lie to you to sign you up. Do NOT sign with Just Energy!

Horrible customer service!
I called in May and told them i wanted my service ended on June 30 and did not want to renew my contract with them. Even though I did not renew my contract with them they say I wasn't specific enough about cancelling services. I said i didn't want to renew my contract on June 30, how could that mean i still wanted electricity! additionally i never answered any of their subsequent emails and phone calls about renewing the contract. When i got my bill for July, when i wasn't living at the address, i called in and asked them to withdraw the bill and they said the could not unless i proved to them that i called in and cancelled. how am i supposed to do that months later?? a ridiculous waste of my time. i will not be using them again in the future!

I Was Misinformed/Lied To by Just Energy Door to Door Salesman
Just Energy Energy Adviser (saleman) comes to my door, and long story short, asks to see my Electric bill from old provider and tells me, "See this 4.1 cents per KWH, this is what your paying just for electricity. Now look down here. See this 10.6 cents per KWH? This is what you're actually paying for electricity after the delivery fees and all other fees and charges, and taxes are added in. 10.6 cents is what you're actually paying for electricity in total. With Just Energy that amount is 9.5 cents."This was the lie (either intentional or not). 9.5 cents is what I paid for electricity and delivery bundled together BUT on one of my bills the overall charge for electricity was 13.5 cents per KWH.The sales guy was either not trained correctly and didn't know what he was talking about or he straight up lied to me. In either case I feel I was scammed.I quit Just Energy after 3 months and when I got my last bill they add $150 to it for reimbursement of the $150 they gave me in Billing Credit to compensate me for the $150 Early Cancellation fee my last provider had charged me.When I called and explained the story above and asked that they waive that reimbursement repayment, I was told that I agreed to the contract on the phone (J E guy called in the the order and then put me on the phone to agree to the terms). Being that the J E guy was comparing my old total charge of 10.6 cents to their 9.5 cents I obviously assumed that that 9.5 cents per KWH was what I was going to pay in total and agreed to the terms on the phone. And when they read you the terms it's like one of those overly wordy agreement statements you're suppose to read (but nobody ever does) before clicking the box agreeing to the terms of whatever it is your signing for.I FEEL LIKE I WAS TOTALLY SCAMMED

A Scam
They go in force door to door and look at your bill and convince you that your being over charged. Luckly I did my research the next day when doing the switch over which I cancelled it. They lie to you about charges, fees, etc, just look at the 1 star reviews on this site over 72%, that is huge. Please do your research before switching, You have three federal days to do it in. I'm glad I cancelled, I run run them out of our community next time they come. We are a no soliciting site, but they don't care they want your hard earned money.

NEVER recommend to anyone! I was told this company would offer good pricing and was reliable. THAT is the ultimate JOKE! I used them for a total of 5 months only. The last bill was outrageous and when questioned they were unable to assist. They even had customer contact their electrical provider instead of them handling the situation. The meter readings did not match up in the least from previous months. I was given at least 3 different ticket numbers, spoke to managers and was given false promises of matter to be handled. They never returned calls and of course did not change ONE penny of the original bill which is a FRUAD. I would never recommend them to anyone stay away from this company and their terrrible customer service.

I signed for free nights. My first bill was $64.00 for 5 days! They were charging me 11.5 per kWh. My next bill for a month's service was $386+! When I called to ask about the $146.87 "pass thru" charge that was not on my first bill, the rep ignored my question and copped an attitude. When I signed up for the service, no one mentioned that charge I switched back to my former plan where I pay 9.6'per kWh. Just Energy is a ripoff.

Each time I call-- I get the runaround-- no one seems to know what is going on. I am told that some one will call and NO CALL OR RESOLUTION TO DATE. This has been going on for months now. As of now I am owed $200 in fees.

No compassion
Im a home health care provider who is caring for an 81 year old man on hospice and i got him set up for the 90$ flat rate plan due to his oxygen usage and his bills being over 100$ just about every month. We both live in south texas where it barely gets to freezing. He lives alone in a small apartment. I was not informed on my client not getting the 90$ flat rate plan until two billing cycles had went by and when i explained it to the rep. He didnt care had no compassion what so ever. He couldve atleast apologized for the first rep who set the flat rate plan up. I understand how frustrating it is to work in billing i use to do the same for a cellphone company but you always had to show compassion and hold your composure. Hope that rep has a better day and learns what customer service really is.

Just energy is the devil
Been with just energy 4 years and never had a problem until December when I moved in another apartment after hurricane Harvey. My first bill was for $483 dollars my first Month and I nearly had a heart attack! I'm a disabled veteran on limited fixed income and this bill is more than I pay for my rent. I only have my TV on most of the time although I had to use the Heat during this Bad cold spell in December and January which was unusual in Texas. I set up a payment plan for a hundred dollars to keep the lights on and still my lights were disconnected! Every time I called it was nearly an hour wait and the people you deal with are rude and cop attitudes when their lies are exposed and they just hang up on you! Got a new bill this month with an extra $100 fee for the false disconnection I thought I had already explained as being false. My bill is now $666 dollars the number of the beast which they are exactly that. My apartment is one bedroom townhome but I'm afraid I will have to move yet again because they will continue to gouge my eyes out over ridiculous charges that have no basis in reality. Say a prayer and don't deal with these crooks or you will be freaking possessed by high electric prices

I have a 1000 sq foot apartment, and for the month of January 2018 my bill is $298. Sure it was cold and I ran the heat, but not $300 worth.

This is an absolutely sick sick sick energy company. They do not read your meter for energy consumption, what they do is they average what they think you're going to use based on average consumption around your neighborhood and apply the fictititous energy costs to you, Do not i repeat do not fall for whatever ridiculous teaser rates they have. They have ridiculous charges to make up for it. I understand energy companies are all about the fine print, but with just energy it is beyond ridiculous. My energy usage apparently quadrupled in months in which i was never at home. My january 2017 bill read about 1.5KWH, a time in which i was always at home because i had lost work. This year my january and february elec bill read almost 3KWH, and I am never at home 6 out of the 7days of the week. Thats why I say they do not read meters. This is an abhorrent company and I would not recommend it to my worst enemy. They are absolutely disgusting

I do not recommend Just Energy
In the summer of 2017, Just Energy had a booth/table at HEB in Sugar Land on Highway 6. Just Energy was promoting an electricity plan of "Free Nights 9pm-7am and a rate of 9.3kwh." They were handing out cards with this info on it. I still have the one they gave me. I signed up with Just Energy through the use of an IPAD. Somehow, the IPAD converted my plan to something else. Just Energy made a bunch of excuses and said that I signed for the Free Nights 9.3 promotion and that the bait and switch contract would get fixed. I then started dealing with a supervisor who eventually cut my bill in half in the beginning to try and fix the problem. Her name is Elena Cuellar. She acknowledged in emails that my issues needed to get fixed and that Just Energy didn't have a program to determine how much electricity was used at night versus during the day. This October 2017 email is the last email she sent until May 2018. From: Elena Cuellar [mailto:ECuellar@justenergy.com] Sent: Friday, October 13, 2017 5:27 PM To: 'batucker@comcast.net' Subject: RE: Your Just Energy eBill - Period (07/24/2017 - 08/17/2017 ) Due on 09/06/2017 Hi Mr. Tucker, I totally agree with you, the fix is taking way to long.

I've been a customer for 5 years pay my bills on time and never had any problems until the last couple of months. Customer service fail to follow through on the contract that I needed to place after mine expired. They said they call me they never did and they never left a message and called me a liar as to a new contract in new rates. I've called several times they have gouged me on my last bill because I didn't have a contract and they charge me $0.16 per kilowatt which I find very disgusting. All my other bills were at 12 and 13 cents per kilowatt I will never do business with anybody that treats me like you have treated me again. I called and requested a rewrite change on my last bill because I do live on Social Security and I can't pay the whole bill if that gouging rate. I have never been so insulted in my life do not ever do business with these people they told me no unless I sign a new contract at an outrageous and they have no good plans available I've already been offered a better plan with $100 signing bonus.

They are only good as long as your promotion is good, once your promotion is over, be ready to have what I call rip off. My monthly bill would normally be below 100 for a 3 bd house, after the 12 months contract, my bill went up to 300s and my current 2 months bill is 632. They also have the worst customer service. When you place a call, be prepared to wait for over 10 minutes to be serve and even when you get a chance to talk to someone, they are not helpful either, often times, you will get hang up on and have to start over again, very frustrating dealing with them to solve an issue. Comparing my experience with other companies, I would not recommend them based on what I did hit with.

Faulty Loopholes Double the Bill
My bills with Just Energy have skyrocketed due to an expired contract. The total for the last three months was $622 and I live in a one bedroom apartment and I keep the temperature at 70 degrees. According to the Public Utility Commission of Texas website, which is linked below, "retail electric providers are required to notify residential customers at least 30 days before a contract expires". I was told by their costumer service representative, that Just Energy no longer sends out formal notification letters 30 days prior to expiration, instead they include the expiration date on the monthly bill, which is in a very obscure location in fine print. This practice is not an adequate attempt to notify customers that their contract is going to expire. It would appear that Just Energy is employing this faulty loophole to increase the likelihood that consumers will not notice or become aware of their pending expiration date, allowing the company to falsely justify charging the monthly variable rate. I have called and attempted to reach a solution with Just Energy multiple times over the course of a month, every time I am told that they are investigating the situation and that a manager will call me back but I have not been able to reach anyone or receive an answer. Their customer service representatives are unwilling to offer the previous fixed rate from our initial contract, forcing me to either continue paying their extremely high rate, or seek out a contract with another company while rates are at their highest due to summer temperatures. It is very burdensome to find time in my schedule each week and attempt to resolve the situation over the phone for over an hour, only to be told that someone will call me back. Just Energy must know this and it would seem that their customer service practices make the process intentionally difficult so that consumers will grow weary and give up on reimbursement.

Went online 1/7/19 to sign up, and pay deposit of 275.00 after it processed it said order cancelled, called bank and they took that amount out of my account, immediately called customer service with order number that was assigned to me, the man I spoke to barely spoke English which worsened the situation, but he informed me yes they did charge but it's only pending and call back in the morning to see if payment went through, which it did, now agent says sees order but no payment, only a 99.00 payment made in December which u couldn't grasp because how would I made a payment when I have never had service with them again, situation worsened by not being able to speak English... Asked to speak to supervisor was refused and told no charges were made... Called bank put stop payment because what a scam and ripoff be very wary, I'm just glad I had this experience before actually getting service from this company.

I shopped for a cheaper rate and I switch to another gas provider a few weeks ago. I received my last bill from Just Energy and they charged me an EXIT FEE of $75.
I called them and talk to the CSR and she informed me thar it is in the fine imprint customer agreement that I signed some five uears ago that there is an exit fee of $75.

I recently wanted to switch electrical companies and from the sells lady everything sounds great until they shut my electricity off on a Saturday and couldnt turn it on. I called on Saturday morning at 9am to make sure they were going to switch the power over to there provider and they informed me that it would take 24 hour so I checked back at 3pm and they informed me that it would take until Monday. Well long story short lost all my father in laws insulin and about 800.00 in food. If I could of just got the truth this would not of happened I would of had my old electrical company stay on until just no energy turned it on. Not to mention the supervisor hung up on me 2 time or they call it disconnected without a call back. Use at your own risk

TERRIBLE SERVICE
Just Energy starts charging me .20 kWh without notifying me for months. I decided to call and figure out why the past 4 months my bill has been $300-$400 without me ever turning on my AC or Heat the past 4 months. Found out they are charging me an INSANE TERRIBLE rate and HIGHEST rate I have ever known. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY FOR ELECTRICITY SERVICES. Terrible Customer Service also.

Worst Customer Service
I had purchased a condo that I was flipping. I was assured by 3 different service representatives of this company that if I sold the condo, there would be no penalty for exiting the contract early. When I sold the condo, the new owner switched to their own energy provider and Just Energy charge me $150 because I did not give them 3 days notice that I was switching providers. At their request, I provided closing documents to them to prove the condo was sold. They would not reverse the penalty fee and I finally paid so it would not effect my credit. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!! VERY UNETHICAL!!!!!

Negligent Practices Allow for Fraud
**FRAUD ALERT** Due to lax and negligent business practices, Just Energy has allowed a residential energy account I be fraudulently opened in my name. Despite my best efforts to seek a resolution to this matter and have the account closed, Just Energy refuses to communicate with me regarding this matter. At all costs, avoid doing business with this company. I have filed complaints with the Houston Police Department, the Federal Trade Commission, the Public Utilities Commission of Texas, and the Better Business Bureau. I am incurring ongoing financial damages due to Just Energy's delay in addressing this matter. As such, I have referred this matter to an attorney in order to pursue this as a civil matter and seek compensation for ongoing damages. I do not recommend that any person do business with this company. Due to irresponsible and negligent business practices, you may find yourself in a bad situation with no semblance of resolution. What's worse, despite my repeated efforts to resolve the matter directly with Just Energy, no member of their staff has contacted me directly in over a month or attempted communications.

BASICALLY LIED AT SAM's CLUB MEMBER PROMOTION
I was in my local Sam's Club and was stopped by one of there representatives. I was told the base rate being offered was 13.8 cents/kw She told me I would never see that due to the free evenings, and my average rate would be closer between 8.5 and 9.0 cents/kw. As we proceeded with the digital process, she showed me key pages seeming to confirm the base rate was 13.8 cents/kw with credit for usage during evenings between 9pm-7am. I verbally reiterated all this back to her to be sure I understood the offer and she confirmed I was correct.When I get the paperwork, low and behold, the base rate is actually 20.8 cents/kw and the estimated average will be the 13.8 cents/kw - NOT A GOOD RATE AT ALL. My first bill confirmed the 20.8 cents/kw and with my credit for evenings the average rate was over 14 cents/kw

Waiting for my refund
The sales reps of Just Energy were going door-to-door selling their services. The rep was very thoroug in explaining their service to me and told me that their service will replace PG&E that I will be paying only $16.99 a month and can use all the gas and as much as I want and my bill not increase at all. Also, I will not see from PGE annymore; all bills will be coming from Just Energy. Being on disability, I thought it was a great deal and it would help save $$$ on a monthly basis. Being on a fixed income, every penny makes a difference to people like us. Upon receiving my first bill in November from PGE, the total amount was Just Energy portion of 16.99 and PGE monthly amount. I contacted PG&E and was told that they had nothing to do with Just Energy and their services and that I will have to continue to pay PGE what they bill on a monthly basis, in addition to whatever else Just Energy bills me. I called Just Energy and besides being extremely rude and unprofessional, I was told to just ignore the portion of the Just Energy billing and continue to pay PGE. I told him that's not how it works and I have to pay the entire bill. His response was "I don't know what to tell you". Asked to speak to a supervisor, none was available. Left my name and # for a call back, nothing. Asked to cancel my account and he said he couldn't and a supervisor has to do it!!! Nothing happened! Called a few more times, no response. In March I called again and had to make threats of reporting them to FTC, BBB and my local channel and finally they cancelled my account and also for a refund for all the months I had paid them. On March 20, 2019, I received a cancellation letter from Mark Eddings, Sr. VP, Regional General Mngr. I sent them another letter on July 2, 2019 asking for my refund because what they did was so very wrong and didn't deliver what was promised and misled everyone about their service, To date have not heard a word from them. This company is a big fruad and crooked and their reps are just as crooked and unethical. After everything that I have gone through, they sent me an email "You just got 500 Perks points"! and asked for a survery and how they are doing!!!! This is the complaint sent to FTC

Worst Customer Service Ever
An agent came by and sold me Just Energy promised me the account would not be taken over from my old company until my contract with them expires which was 8-8 or 8-9. Just Energy took over before then which caused me to be billed a $135.00 early termination fee. They refuse to reimburse me because I cancelled my service with them. They say the only way I would get back that fee is if I would have remained with them or switched back to my previous provider. Just because I went to another provider that should not mean that I can not get my money back- They took over illegally. Now I have to fight this crap. Just Energy Just Sucks. I would not give that one if there was a lesser option.

terrible rates and poor customer service.
This company over charged me 175 for a termination fee, after I informed the rep that the bill was too high and that I was leaving.
But because the rep didn't enter or document the call as " caller is terminating", they said that I didn't notify them properly. Additionally, I wasn't allow the HEAR the recorded call that they had on file. But I had to take their word that I didn't notify them correctly. Total BS. FYI, if someone calls to complain about HIGH RATES, then proceeds to say, this is TOO high, I'm finding another provider.. Guess what, that is notification that they are leaving. It's not my fault your rep misread HER script and didn't give me her sales pitch of, " well I can lower your rate".
Do not trust this company, they are the worse.

Horrible company, worse service
I have had NOTHING but trouble with this company. I had my power cut off (even though I made the agreed upon payment!), and for the filling 6 hours, was insulted, lied to, given the run around, and hung up on by OVER HALF A DOZEN AGENTS! My husband asked for a supervisor, and when asked why, he said he disagreed with the amount. He was told that wasn't a valid reason, that he was being rude, and then he was hung up on. I have been communicating with this company for the past 2 weeks about the ABUSE that we suffered. Now I am being told that things happened a different way (essentially, I'm lying) and the case was closed. I have never, NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!! had such bad Service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Horrible Customer Service
Company offers decent rates but if a payment is late, for whatever reason, you get bombarded with late payment notices and collection notices. When speaking to anyone from the collections department dont expect any real help besides scripted answers from the company and from someone who barely speaks English. We do not want to make payments late but sometimes life happens and it would be nice if a company actually tried to help or give you honest answers versus a scripted response and no help.

Pathetic Customer Service and Ridiculous Billing
I never experience such pathetic customer service in my life and when you try hard to understand the agent they are not willing to help you. I also learned you can not pay them online for your monthly billing because they fail to provide you their complete zip code so your bank can't pay the bill. They are forcing you to make a phone payment to charge you $5.00 for the billing transaction. They didn't try to fix your concerns/problems but they are more concern to charge you more money.I would never recommend joining the Just Energy unless you love Headache.

Was happy until today. Stay away
This AM I get an email from AEP telling me my generation provider was changing next month. I call Just Energy to find out why.. 1st time calling... 1st Im told I switched providers... no, Im placed on hold. Then Im told my credit score wasnt good enough. They never checked my score, not even when I signed up almost 2 yrs ago. Then Im told my state and government decided Im not eligible for services.. At this point I hysterically laugh at the woman and tell her I use to work for an electric company and they cant do that, If she doesnt know what shes talking about thats fine I want a supervisor. She schedules me a call back for 24 to 48 hours.
I then write an email detailing all of this to see if that gets me somewhere faster. A few hours later I get a response stating Im behind in my bill and thats breach of contract. So I get on the aep app and screenshot my account history showing Im up to date and bill not even due until 10/11.
I call again. Only thing they could do is put in a request to stay on current plan that account has been proven to be current. This may take up to 2 months to be approved, but as of my next billing cycle with aep 10/23 there is going to be a change. So how does this help?
Totally screwing me around. I would prefer someone tell me they have no clue then to make a bogus excuse that is easily proven wrong!

Extremely dishonest and unprofessional to take advantage of a disabled young man with NO means to pay an electric bill for his mothers home. Salesman "Matthew" told several times that he could not make changes and would give info to mother when she returned from work. Using this as a learning tool for son about dishonest salespeople!!!

The sales person in Sam's Club claimed the TDSP delivery charge was included in the energy charge. Since this is unusual, but not impossible, I asked about 5 different ways to try to see how she was tricking me. But why trick when you can just lie? She did trick me when I asked to see it in writing, but I was able to rescind my contract.
3 stars to customer service for being honest, but only 3 because they wouldn't accept "other written communication" and I had to scan the official form.
So the rates were alost 33% higher than PROMISED.

Just a Fraud should be the name
The rate that was listed on PA Energy was 6.39. The rate they charged me was 8.29. I spend a few hours and calls getting them to agree to charge me the 6.39 that was listed on PA Energy. My bill came and I was charged 8.29. More time and calls and I was told that was the taxes. Every other supplier I have used (and I check the rates and switched whenever my contract is up and there is a lower rate) has had the taxes included in the rate that advertise. I have switched again.

Very disappointed in Just Energy
On 11/13/19, I received PA Ratings conformation, Just Energy (JE) would be my energy supplier for 12 months at 06.6900 cents/kwh.
On 11/19/19 I received a letter from Duquesne Light Company (DL) identifying Just Energy as my supplier effective 11/22/19 at a price of 08.69 cents/kwh.
On 11/21/19 I received a form letter from JE identifying the price to be 08.6900 cents/kwh.
I have received two bills from Duquesne Light (last 12/29/19) both with the 08.6900 cents/kwh price.
I called Just Energy right after I receive the Duquesne Light letter to complain about the price change. They said they would check into it. The women called me back and said it would be changed to the 06.69 cent price for the next billing. After I received the second DL bill with the higher price, I called Just Energy. This time a man (Allen) said they are aware of it and will let me know. Prior to this call, I contacted the PUC to complain about JE.
The PUC had contacted JE to investigating my complaint.
As of this writing, I have not received any notice of adjustment from either DL or JE.

Margan talked my boyfriend into getting a quote, she got our address and told him he would have to sign things to get the quote so she could sent to his phone. The day after that he received calls, texts, and emails about switching over to Just Energy he never replied. Jan 27, he received an email thanking him for his service with Just Energy. How is that possible he didnt authorize anything! Our current energy provider is in my name. How was Margan able to change anything over without an account number. Now I have 300 early termination fee and and 101.25 energy charge from my company. My boyfriend called Just Energy to only be on hold and given the run around for an hour transferred here and there. He finally talked to a representative whom stated she didnt see his authorization for the service. I hope Just Energy can rectify this situation!

Warning Just Energy got my Info and not sure how!
I was charged $10 then after that went through, a $163.17 was charged, then again for $163.17 and then again for $152.14. Never ever spoke to anyone with regard to Just energy and weve been with our energy provider for 3 years now and see no need to switch. I also paid my energy bill 3 days prior to this charge from Just Energy and to top it off I have a long time left on my contract. I have taken the liberty to report Just energy to the (BBB) Better Business Bureau (WHICH I HIGHLY RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO DO IF THIS HAPPENS TO YOU) and I am looking for a LAW FIRM who will represent me and the many others that have been affected by this FRAUD of a company because obviously the owners and those that have been put in charge over its companys and employees know they are scamming people with their hard worked/earned money. How do you manage to get my credit card information and attempt to charge the same card over 5 times and try and get away with it. So since you attempted to steal my money and since I have money to throw away, I will have a petition filed against you, your company and employees for FRAUD and PERJURY because you got information from me that was NOT at ANY TIME given to you or anyone who works for Just Energy. We as a consumer are protected by what is called the Deceptive Trade Practice Act and I think you need to read that act before the owners of Just Energy and its employees continue to commit this Fraud and scams. Just Energy, be prepared to spend money on some attorneys of your own because you opened a can of worms you didnt want to open. You may have scammed some elderly people or families of those that are deceased but not me. To those who have been scammed by this company, I would look into hiring an attorney, report all fraudulent charges and keep all the proof of these frauds in your possession. It will make your case stronger and they will have to pay for everything. Just Energy, you will also reimburse me for the Petition and all court costs associated with this lawsuit. You want to steal peoples money, then pay for our court costs as well?!

Stay Away
I signed up at Sam's Club with an eager salesperson. I told him that I probably wasn't going to be in my house for very long and he assured me that it was fine--that there would be no termination fees when I moved. He also assured me that my bill would be much lower (it never dropped at all and was, in fact, slightly higher). Upon moving, I received a bill for a $50 termination fee. I tried to call to have it resolved and never got through after literally hours on hold. I then sent a private message which has, to this date, never been looked at, much less responded to. Four days after receiving the first bill, I received a second notice that I was going to be referred to a collections agency soon if I didn't pay. I just disconnected service about 2 weeks ago! I refuse to pay this disconnection fee, and am planning to file a complaint with the BBB and seek out other action. My understanding is that this company has a mountain of complaints against it.

Just Energy Dissatisfied Customer
Where do I start. First off I've been going back and forth with just energy about my bill. I paid my bill on Friday 13th and upon checking into the bank account on Monday I saw that my payment had posted to my checking account. Well, around 12:45pm my lights get turned off for non payment. You can't reach customer service unless you sit on the phone for two hours and then you have to go to the chat. To be clear, just energy has put me through undo hardship for no reason. I moved to a new address and was told since I had not changed service providers nothing would change on my account including my account number. After four months of paying all of a sudden my old account was deactivated and now I have a new account number. I have screen shots of the conversations and of my bill payments with the old supposedly deactivated account number. My question is how was I able to pay and my lights were never disconnected. I have lost all trust in just energy and would never recommend them to anyone. And buy the way after having to pay the same payment again and a reconnect fee, I was informed that the payment that was supposed to take two to three days to so call raise from the old account to the new account had already posted. Just energy, inform your agents to be clear when dealing with your customers. By the way we had the money and could've paid the account if it had been made clear that it may cause a delay in our service. My advice, screen shot your conversations so when they try to dispute what was said to you, you can come back and let them know that you have the original conversation. Will be looking into getting a new service provider.

We signed up in our local sams club and have switched because the rates were too high. The salesman said that there would be no fees and then when we switched they charged us a exit/switch fee. They will not refund the money saying I signed the contract. Spoke with manager and they said they would take care of it. Its been a month and nothing and now my bill is overdue and nothing.

Switched from another electricity unwillingly
I was stopped at Sams Club by your agent who tried to convince me to switch to the free weekend plan. She made me sign an agreement and gave me a date when the service will be switched. She also gave me a number to call in case I decided to stay with my company and not switch. I went home and after reviewing my bills, I decided to not switch. I called Just Energy and requested not to switched. I explained the reason. The agent put me on hold and when he came back, he confirmed that I will not be switched. What was/is my surprise when my current electricity sent me a letter saying they were sorry i was leaving !I started getting emails and statement of welcome from Just Energy ! I think that is tricking people and making them sign an agreement and not honor what they said. That is simply dishonest. I dont have time be on the phone to fix this.

Rip Off
My bill has a different due date each month. I have excellent credit and pay all of my bills on time, however I missed a payment by 2 days and was charged $20 in late fees during the COVID-19 PANDEMIC. Im cancelling service as soon as my contract is over.

No compassion
Right now with the Covid 19 you would think they would have more compassion on those who cant afford their bill... I ask for a day or 2 extension until my first unemployment check comes in and they couldnt do it they wanted a partial payment. If I had a partial payment I wouldnt of paid it. I am very unhappy and very unpleased after spending an hour and 45 minutes on hold to get through to speak to someone. I will be making a Switch to someone who has better compassion for others when there is a world pandemic!

Call Just Energy about my bill. My rate per kilowatts went from 9.8 to 18.3 due to not getting renewal papers. I have been with the energy company for 6 years. The factor that my bill jumped tremendously and they were not will to do anything about it. Spoke to Cynthia on 4/8/20 and she stated that it would be changed to 10.8 kilowatts and that was a lie. I called and to spoke to the supervisor on 4/11/20 and he was rude and not very compassionate. Due to the fact that with the Covid-19 going on my bill going to jump to $400.00. I feel like they priced gauged. I will be call the news and inform them of what they did. People dont have jobs right now and this what they do.
Will never recommend anyone for there electric service

This Company is Sad.
When I moved to Dallas County several years ago I picked Just Energy. I am Disabled which the company knew this.I kept my bill up to par but due to my divorce I had to call to make an arrangement. I paid when I said I would and life was good. I thought wrong I finally moved into my new home and was charged an additional $200. I still don't understand where the amount came from today. (?) So I called and asked if they would work with me mainly because my bill was almost $500. I had to speak with a Supervisor to do so. I asked her to look over my past account to see how well I paid. I was told they made changes so my past history doesn't matter. She finally worked with me and gave me an arrangement. Months later 6-9 months I received a large bill again. I was told they only do arrangements once a year. So I had to miss another bill to pay it.COVID-19 pandemic came. My bill kept going up. Finally I truly needed help due to the Entire World going through. I spoke to a rep every other day and said I would pay it Friday. Every day someone called. Finally a rep said they see my notes and its note Friday. That Friday morning my service was disconnected before 9am. When I called they didn't care. This was doing the pandemic and I am Disabled. They did not care...I am no longer with Just Energy. Be careful.

Don't sign up with Just Energy!
My service was up thru another carrier on 5/02/2020. I called Power to Choose on 3/20/20 and they set me up with Just Energy. Down Hill after that. Just energy cancelled my confirmation twice. It was their mistake. First time was incorrect social security number. They never called to get the correct number. The 2nd time was also their error as someone forgot to change their system to completed. Again they never called. I called on 6/2/2020 to find our why I was getting bills from my previous carrier and was told the above and was lied to my my C.S. rep. in Columbia, Mayerly. I called back the following day and talked to Laura also of Columbia only to be lied to again. I called again on 6/5/20 and talked to Anna in Houston only to be begged not to talk to a supervisor. After I insisted I talked to Alex only to be told she had to transfer me to new customer set up plus I had to pay the previous cancelation and send the bill into them for reimbursement. I needed to trust her. Right! after being lied to time and time again.

Total Scam
I met with Just Energy when I was shopping at a store. Just Energy agent told me that I would be paying less with Just Energy. I asked them about their rates but they told me that they cannot provide me rates without signing up. They told me it is easy to cancel after signing up. I signed up and realized that the rate is not lower than the rates with my existing electricity provider. I have been demanding to cancel my enrollment with Just Energy to stay with my existing provider. Otherwise I will be paying additional cancellation fees due scam Just Energy Agent lying people to make them sign up to get a commission.

Worst energy company
Just Energy promised that their prices would be more than half what I was paying with Reliant. We have had them for 3 months now and all 3 bills have been at least double what I was paying with Reliant. Also they promised a $45 gift card to Sams Club for signing up with them and I have never received it. This company is a scam and they are liars. Check elsewhere if you are looking for an energy company. I am switching back to reliant ASAP. I would give them zero stars if I could.

Liars and Scammers!
My husband and I called for a quote to compare with our current provider upon switching apartments. The representative claimed they needed information about the service address in order to provide a quote. Before giving any information, we stated several times that we just wanted a quote and did not want to sign up for anything we would later be charged for. The representative ensured that we would not be charged anything, so we proceeded. A month later, we receive a notice for a late energy bill claiming we owed Just Energy $81. We called customer service to inform them of the error and was told that we agreed to the charges. After zero help and many calls with incompetent representatives, I received a confirmation number for our case and was informed that a manager would contact us within 5 to 10 business days. On the phone, the manager agreed that we had stated several times that we were only wanting a quote, but claims we agreed to a contract with them. (The representative initially helping us NEVER mentioned we needed to cancel anything he did with us in order not to be charged). This company LIES and MANIPULATES people! You can't trust anything they say. Stay as FAR away from this company as possible. Did I mention they are charging us for an apartment that we don't even live in nor have we ever lived in???

Liars, scammers and crooks!
My husband called for a quote to compare with our current energy provider when we were deciding to relocate closer to his place of business. The representative asked for his name and address in which my husband replied, I just want a quote. I dont want to be charged anything. The representative assured him he would not be charged, so he continued. After comparing rates, we decided to continue with our current provider. A little over a month later, we got charged a energy bill from JustEnergy, and a late charge. We called to correct the mistake because we had not authorized any agreement with the company. After several phone calls with unhelpful costumer service members, we were given a confirmation code to speak with a manager. The manager, Cheryl, was immediately rude upon answering her phone. Replying to my husband, Oh, Ive been trying to reach you several times, in an arrogant voice. (I had left my number to call. My husband wasnt expecting the call because he hadnt left his cellphone number on the notes for this case. If they had called the number listed in the notes of the issue, then I wouldve gotten the call -which I had been expecting.) The manager confirmed that we had just called for a quote, but claimed we still agreed to the payment regardless whether it was through the representatives manipulation/lying. Did I mention we dont even live in the apartment they are trying to charge us for?! We called for a quote on an apartment unit that we ended up not even moving into!!! I honestly dont see how this could be legal. Do NOT use JustEnergy! They are crooks, liars and manipulators! Its so sad that a manager would allow her staff to manipulate and lie to people and try to force payments on unsuspecting persons. If all of that didnt sound bad enough, JustEnergy reached out to my current service provider to cancel my business with them!!!!! I had to call my current provider (whom I had been with for almost 2 years) to ensure them I had not authorized any change request and wished to continue receiving their services. How is that legal?! Seriously, save yourself the heartache and stay as far away from this company as possible.

The company is terrible. Charges you if your little lights spontaneously go out to come and fix the problem. The app is the only way to pay your bill without additional charge, but the app doesnt work properly so they force you to pay by phone and therefore pay additional charges. Very unethical.

WORST SERVICE OF MANKIND
We (wife and I) have been with Just Energy for a few years, last Sept we moved into our house with not much issues until this Spring (2020). We noticed a spike in our bill with May, there was no change in our electricity usage that we could find, we keep the AC around 74 degrees. Massive jump in June, called them on July 16th, first two reps could not give me a reason of whatsoever for the jump, could not explain how our next bill for Aug. was going to be in the mid $300 range when it generally runs in the mid $100 range. Finally spoke to a rep who gave me a 1 year contract of $155 beginning for the July bill then on for the next 11 months. After this my wife is receiving calls for more money, I then spoke with a supervisor who listened to the July 16th call, after a 1.5 hour call she got back to me profusely apologizing about all the headaches, that we have no previous balance. Then the calls happened again, more managers, more headaches with no resolution.

Just Energys customer service is GARBAGE!!
They are QUICK to disconnect you. If your payment is only a day or two late. Seriously, not kidding!! I also set up auto pay and for some reason, it stopped. One time I paid it the day after the payment due date. It never registered my payment and they shut me off. I got back online and paid it. Now Ive been on the phone for 46 min and counting, waiting to see about getting it back on. They say you can use live chat through the customer portal. There is no option for live chat. Ive never had more problems with a provider. Their free nights are a joke. It doesnt save you any money. I have higher bills now than I did before them. That early termination fee is looking to be worth the money. THEY ARE GARBAGE! Do not use them. I would love to see them go out of business.

Horrible company-DO NOT USE
An agent came out and sold to me, unknowing placed me in a 5 yr contract instead of the typical 2yr. I had switched companies as my bill jumped quite high expectantly. I had someone call in regard to my switch, he called to confirm I was aware of the 2yr contract. I told him that was fine I would pay the exiting fee. He then called back laughing stating I was in a 5 year contract. I called over and over again to speak with someone about the exiting fee. I finally received a call back and she was requesting a payment. I was advised if I was to pay x amount the remainder fee would be waived. A couple weeks later I received another email advising I still owed x amount. I tried contacting every phone number listed on every email with no luck of reaching anyone. I finally used google as if I was interested in being a new customer. Set on hold for 3 hours to only be advised they had no record of the fee being waived.

A real nightmare for 2.5 years
My wife went to SAMs Club met a Just Energy salesman who told my wife sign up now and she has 3 days to think about it. Actually Just Energy switched the service the same day with 2 service contracts (we have two power meters), contracts for 2 years & 2.5 years. My wife called & told the office the same day that salesman promised her she has 3 days to decide and she does not want to sign up with Just Energy now. NO such a thing according to the office, once you are in, either break the contract or wait until the end of the contract. Oncore bought out our 2 years residential contract, but the 2.5 years contract is for a street light. Even Oncore does not offer any contract for a street light, but Just Energy considered it as a business contract which Oncore can not buy us out. The meter is in Oncore office, but Just Energy bill is 20% higher than Oncore. Especially, the street light bulb went off 7 months before the end of the contract, however Just Energy still charged us without any shame. Yes, we have been suffering from Just Energy for 2.5 years.

Dont get involved with this company
I decided to try Just Energy. I signed on through a third party who searches for the best rates. They claimed I would be getting a rate of 9.2 pkh and would not have ANY additional fees. When my bill came it was 11.9 and every extra fee there could be. When I called JE they said they would have to investigate it and it would take 7-10 days. I checked back in 7 and in 10 days, trying to navigate their telephone wasteland where you can reach the correct person to help. I called at least 20 more times over the course of a couple of months ( meanwhile I switched back to Reliant). They kept telling me they were still investigating, no one ever helped me. Then they sent me to collections. I offered to pay them 200 dollars to end the madness. They wouldnt accept it.My time is worth something, I was sincerely trying to get to some type of resolution. After many many collection calls to not only me but also to my boyfriends number (not sure where they got that) I finally gave in and paid the damn money they requested. Please believe me, this is an awful company to do business with.

Mislead
I am a Sam's Club member who was solicited by Just Energy while shopping at Sam's. I was talked into switching both electric and natural gas to JE. Going into the 3rd year i decided it was no longer feasible to stay with Just Energy. Upon switching to other suppliers I was hit with $100 early termination fee, which was $50 for each utility. It was not made clear when signing up and I do not recommend dealing with JE.

Terrible prices and customer service
Ive had Just Energy for almost 2 years and my bills have consistently been over $150 for a small apartment that is barely occupied half the time. I work 50 hour work weeks and have good energy saving habits, always have. During covid I have had financial setbacks and they offer deferred payment arrangements that only get you stuck and make you fall even more behind. Ive had shut off notifications during the pandemic with no reach out after asking several times for a manager to give me a call. I have paid hundreds and hundreds of dollars to this company and they still want me to pay a cancellation fee. Dont do it, I work in customer service and this is by far NOT that nor do they care about their customers and the pandemic.

Recently we have been getting phone calls and even a home visit with the messaging to "come back to Just Energy" and it will be better this time because they "under new management." We had several bad experiences with this company and WOULD NOT RECOMMEND, regardless of the new promises of improvement. Be cautious when a company says "under new management" because it signals major problems and sometimes issues are too deep rooted to fix.

Who charges .80 a term? When I told them they where charging me a car payment for heat, I told them I couldn't afford that. They said instantly they could cut it in half. So that's. 40 a term. How ever that's all they could do. They said also sir this could take one or two billing cycles. YUP! They weren't kidding. Next bill 1/5/2021 $413. Wow, pay it. Next bill 2/5/2021 $435.41. Thanks Just energy for stealing from my family. How does it take 2months to adjust the terms of use. Monday day morning I going to pay the cancelation fee. This is ridiculous.

Bad collection practices
First they call and leave a message telling you your account is past due and leave a number for you to call. When you call the number you are told they cannot give you any information and that you have to call your electrical carrier.
My electrical carrier SCE told me it was a scam. So I looked up the main number which is in Canada and left a message. They returned my call, but the caller ID showed that it was some airline company so I did not answer. When I listened to the message it said they are returning my call and to call back. I told them of my issue and that SCE said it was a scam and that their number coming up as an airline instead of Just Energy did not help matters. They responded by saying they did not know why it comes up as that and that it has been that way for quite a while, and that they will look into it. Really??? What major reputable company would let something like that slide???
They said they would send me some documentation to back up their claims. It took almost two weeks to send it via email.
Back to SCE...they finally found that I was using Just Energy in addition to SCE as they use green Technology to produce electricity and that my contract with them had been cancelled the year before!
There was money due apparently, but to wait a year to tell me and threaten me with collections because it is so late is ridiculous. In the email they started sending 3x a week to remind me that I owe them money there is an online payment system (wont take your account number), I call in to customer service, My card wont process, (probably because they are in India or Pakistan). They transfer me..25 minutes on hold, I hung up.
I did send a few payments via snail mail address on there almost daily emails. I get a letter from them saying that is the wrong address and gave me the correct address to pay. I mention to customer service that they are still emailing several times a week with the wrong address. They do not have an answer for me.
Whatever you do ...DO NOT GET MIXED UP WITH JUST ENERGY!

When I mentioned to the guys that it was under my husbands name ! They said oh no you dont have to switch we are just going to check if your area is covered ! Well I gave my husbands info and they send him an email from txu that our account was closed ! I suggest that you take your stands out of sams giving out wrong info to people!!

Bad Rates - Poor Customer Service
EVERYONE-BE AWARE- Just Energy offers services at some Samsclub . I acquired it at the one in Richmond Grandparkway. They offer you the "best rates" waiving the cancellation fee if you are not happy with the service. Guess what, they don't stand behind their word. Shame on Samsclub for letting wolves offer apparent great deals to lambs. They sent my account to a collections agency. Now they don't want to waive the 150 dlls early termination fee.

Horrible Customer "NO" Service
Okay, well, you JUST LOST A CUSTOMER. Thanks for showing your TRUE colors in this time when you could have been much more supportive. Apparently, your last communication that said, "We are working with your utility company to get actual usage for these days, which means the actual usage would be zero during the times your power was out. If applicable, you will see adjustments in the coming days," was just trying to placate a customer. And even though you claim that the price per kwh did not increase with the exorbitant rates of ERCOT, you figured out a way to make up that money. Very creative. I STILL DID NOT HAVE ELECTRICITY for 3 days in which YOU claim I used about 277 kWh of electricity. So GOOD JOB. You know, I wasn't asking for the whole bill to be reassessed and CORRECTED. Just the days that I KNOW I had no electricity usage. Shame on you. I understand everything you said about increased usage during colder weather. That all makes sense. What makes NO SENSE is that you can't even admit the estimation, or worse, the falsification of the energy usage during the days when there was no power. How ludicrous! I realize YOU hold all the leverage: if I don't pay the falsified bill, you will suspend my service and report it to the credit bureaus. But I can do some things. I will be very aggressive in letting everyone I know that this company falsifies meter readings and is REALLY NOT THAT INTERESTED in customer service.I will contact Sam's Club home office to let them know my dissatisfaction with this company that they supported. Hopefully, they will see you for what you are. I will also post reviews EVERYWHERE possible to alert others about your refusal to even admit that you do what you do.

I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD COVER MY LAST PROVIDER'S CANCELLATION FEE WHICH NEVER HAPPENED! WAITED THE 2 BILLING CYCLES FOR THE ADJUSTMENT TO BE MADE ON MY BILL ...AND NOTHING. ON MY LAST ATTEMPT TO HAVE THEM ADJUST MY BILL I WAS TOLD THAT WITHIN 48 HRS THE ADJUSTMENT SHOULD BE MADE REFLECTING A CREDIT AMOUNT FOR THAT CANCELLATION FEE I PAID MY LAST PROVIDER FOR SWITCHING....AND NOTHING! AFTER THE 3RD ATTEMPT I SWITCHED BACK TO MY OLD PROVIDER AND WITHIN 48 HRS THEY ADJUSTED THE CURRENT BILL TO SHOW THEIR CANCELLATION FEE OF $175.00. ITS CRAZY HOW THEY WERE SO PROMPT TO CHARGE ME INSTEAD OF CREDITING MY BILL. I THEN CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE REP WOULD NOT LISTEN TO ANYTHING I HAD TO SAY...HE KEPT TALKING AND TALKING OVER ME. HE EVEN TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD BE HAPPY THEY DID NOT CHARGE ME THE ADJUSTMENT THEY WOULD HAVE MADE BECAUSE IF I TERMINATED MY CONTRACT PRIOR TO THE CONTRACT END DATE THEY WERE GOING TO RECOUP THEIR MONEY ANYWAYS.

I WOULD GIVE A ZERO OR NEGATIVE STARS IF I COULD
They caught my attention at sam's club. SOLD ME ON A BUNCH OF MISINFORMATION and promised gift cards as well. I was told my bill would not go up from what I was paying. I asked multiple times because I am on a fixed income. They trap you in a contract. I asked if it was a contract and they said NO. I was told I would receive one gift card in the mail in a COUPLE WEEKS and one in about a MONTH via email. THIS IN NOT THE CASE. IN THIER FINE PRINT THE FIRST ONE IS SENT AFTER THE FIRST bill has been paid and one after 90 days via email. THIS GIVES THEM JUST LONG ENOUGH TO CHARGE me 3x what I would have paid with my regular gas provider!!! My gas provider was charging me .21 and they are charging me .61!! THEY ARE SCAMMING PEOPLE AND THEY KNOW IT. THEIR REPS SPREAD WRONG INFO TO SIGN YOU UP AND THEN everything real is in the fine print in the contract. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS COMPANY!!! I even called to cancel with their 1800 number and they lied to me AGAIN and said the reason my bill went up was because there was more days of that month in the billing cycle. I KNEW THAT WAS A LIE AS I HAD JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH MY gas company and they explained the difference in what they were charging me vs what JUST ENERGY was charging me. That was the REAL reason my bill went up. Not the LIES JUST ENERGY was feeding me. PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR SCAM!!!

Worst energy company
DONT do it this is the worst energy company around. The rates are ridiculous. The balance billing plan is not a credit plan so if your rates are cheaper in the winter month it doesnt matter because you will pay the same 200.00 per month regardless of what you use and the less electricity you use you will pay the same amount on you bill every month, Total rip-off . Also dont be one day late or even before your do date you are constantly harrased to have your service disconnected. I promise you will constantly live in fear if you choose this light company. My contract ends in July of this year and I cant wait to drop this company . I wouldnt refer no one to Just Energy!! Because they will JUST rip you off.

I was real skeptical about representatives trying to sell anything, but i listened and told them that i was getting good rates but they insisted they would beat them rates. I was told that i would pay 8 cents per kwh, they even told me the more energy i use the less my bill will be. I signed up and got my first bill and come to find out, i am paying 18.44 cents per kwh. And now the person that is supposed to be my customer service representative does not answer or respond to my phone calls.

Cheated by JustENERGY electric company!
I moved into my house but was hospitalized for weeks. While I was t using electricity, I was being charged as if I had a family of 5 using energy. I went back and forth for months with them about an adjustment but they had every excuse to not take any accountability! I've been in my house over 5 years and have never got close to the use of energy this company initially charged me yet they refuse to adjust. They had a valued customer program which offered points to redeem for services or restaurant redemption. I earned several thousand points but they cancelled the program of which I don't have notification of ever receiving. I'm a super conservative person and regularly try hard to do my part to help conserve energy. My bill is paid ahead of schedule but this company doesn't show much value in any of the above chronicalled! Their generic email replies keeps this bad experience ongoing.

Do NOT sign up for this company!
I was stopped in a Sams Club store in Columbus, OH by a rep stating he was with Just Energy. I spoke with him for a while about the company and decided to sign up. After looking at reviews online I decided to cancel (just 2 days later). Instead of calling Just Energy, which Ive tried calling them several times now and it repeatedly says their offices are closed, I called AEP and told them that I do not authorize the switch. This morning I received another email from AEP stating that I approved a transfer of my service to Dynergy which I also did not approve. The Just Energy rep stated my info would not be sold but yet another energy company was trying to switch my account without my consent.

Just Energy - probably the worst choice for Texas
After the Texas freeze in Feb, our HVAC system had a component failure which caused the inside blower to run constantly. The unit is very quiet and we weren't aware of this issue until we received a $1200 bill from them.
Most energy resellers have a onetime forgiveness policy for such incidents that will wave those overages as long as customer can show proof of the issue and receipt that the issue was fixed. However the nice folks at Just Energy were firm in recouping full payment despite the hardships of the customer after the freeze.
I will never use them again nor will we recommend them. They have one of the lowest ratings with the BBB and here on TER. My recommendation to anyone reading this? Read their policies and know there are better resellers out there. Texans have choices and deserve better service than Just Energy.

Worst Company to Use when you have solar Panels
I had solar Panels installed and my panels are producing nearly enough to cover to usage I am using every month . Come to find out they only pay you 3 Cents per Kilowatts that your panels are producing and charge you the difference . They should be ashamed what they are doing to people. I will never ever use this company again . Green Mountain matches what you produce and they will only charge you the difference of what the panels dont produce. If you try to call them they want to justify everything is correct and blame it on ONCOR . I called ONCOR and they told him they only billed them 33.60 for the overage and they are charging me 87 for that month . From my understanding they would only charge me the difference of what my panels don't produce that was a lie. I went a whole year getting rip off by Just Energy.

Huge rip off
So Just Energy stopped me in Sam's Club and convinced me that they were offering me a lower price (they did have my bill to compare.) After one month with them, my electric bill went from $90 to $151. I called Ohio Edison to find out what was going on only to find out Just Energy was charging me 2 1/2 times the amount I was paying with Ohio Edison. I switched back immediately. Don't let their promotions fool you. I got a $70 Sam's club card for changing my electric and gas. I had to wait for a new billing cycle to change back. So in the end, I will have paid $160+ more for service than I would have paid if I had stayed where I was. Imagine if I stayed a year and didn't catch it. That's $1,920 more a year and it would have been higher because I use gas in the winter to heat. Their customer service representative says they've been in business for 20 years, they must be doing something right. I told her no, you just have a bunch of idiots (like me) for customers, who are confused as to why their bill went up. And, I haven't spoke to anyone with Just Energy that I could understand. They all speak broken English. I will NEVER use these fake liars again for service! BEWARE!!!

I called Wednesday and they said it was still pending my credit review, which they told me on Thursday was fine. I cancelled and went with Tara Energy an hour later and they had me switched the next day.I asked Just Energy to refund my $14.99 for the so called Terra Pass energy credit and they said they would.

Worse customer service. I signed up with Just Energy which is also Amigo Energy and during sign-up from one company I canceled to go with Amigo. Not knowing the 2 companies use the same billing/customer service they canceled both accounts. The day I needed electricity it was turned off. When I had a tenant move in and take over the property they charged me extra for leaving them when the tenant changed the service. The customer service makes you stay on the phone for an hour. Use other providers that have good customer service, not this company you will be sorry you went with them when you have billing issues.

Misleading on price
These people convinced me at sam that they will lower my price. I was paying about $100 a month for my 2 bedrooms. I not often home but my bill is always high. For the 1st month with just energy, my bill was abiut $50 but i was out of the country for 6 weeks. How on earth have used $50 worth if electricity when I am not there? After that, my bill kept going up. $80 here, $97 there. What's the point of switching if rhe bill is pretty much the same? In addition to their high price, the girl who sign me up said they would pay for my last bill with the other company if I sign with them and I will receive a gift card of $150. Neither one of these promise was fulfilled. They are just misleading people and laying to them.

Dishonest company, avoid!
I signed up for a three month promotional contract and was required to complete registration and initial payment over the phone. Unfortunately, the Just Energy employee either recorded the information incorrectly or used someone else's credit card information. As a result, our first month payment did not process and we were charged a late payment fee and a note was made on our record. When I called the company about this, that is when they told me the credit card on file (which did not remotely resemble my credit card number or expiration date). I requested the late fee and note to be removed from my history and they agreed to "look into it." The employee stated they did not have the authority to change it and denied my request to speak with a supervisor. The next month's bill arrived and the late fee was still on there and when I called again to complain, I was also told they would not remove the late payment note on my history for their mistake. I have made complaints with the Public Utility Commission and the Attorney Genera's Office in the hope they force Just Energy into doing the correct thing and to hopefully encourage them to change their shady business practices.

Unfortunate
I had signed up with this company to began supplying electricity to my home in Granbury Texas around March of 2021. My husband passes away on February 20, 2021. I was hoping to cut my bills down enough to be able to continue in my home of 32 years, but I could not. I placed my home for sale in August and it sold. I called Just Energy and gave them my new address, etc. I was informed by the lady I talked to they would close and send my closing bill. Nothing was said about leaving my contract early since I was moving to another city.
Now they are hitting me for early cancellation even though I moved away. I live in an apartment in Grapevine to be near my family. I did not have $375. to pay the entire bill so just paid the electrical usage of $199. Now they have turned me over to a collection agency and treating to ruin my credit. I called the number they listed and he wanted me to promise I would send payment on September 18th when I get my SS check. I told him that was silly as I told him I wouldthen he says Do You Promise. I told him NO I would not promise as I told him I would. Thats ridiculous.
Now, I was never told that I could continue with them in Grapevine when I called to discontinue due to moving to another town 80 miles away. I went with the power company that provided electricity to the complex I moved to.
Beware of this company they will get you for everything they can.
I will pay greedy JE when I have the money and they will just have to turn me over to credit bureau. Thats life! I will survive!

A total nightmare!
I really wonder how this company has so many good reviews on here wondering if its legit I decided to change to this company at a sams like most have and everything sounded great, I left TXU because I honestly thought I would no longer make payments of $200. Pfff it was worse, first bill was 230 and the second was 260 i hate this company, its trash, such a bad experience

Bill does not reflect what is advertised on facts label
Don't waste your time with these guys. They throw in a hidden fee and do not charge what they say on the facts label. I switch power companies every 3 to 4 months to get the lowest rate and most other power companies are honest on their facts label. These guys don't disclose the $9.99 "Green Charge" they will hit you with every month. Literally the ONLY charge on the bill that does not fluctuate from month to month, the "Green Charge" is not openly disclosed... What kind of company does that? The facts label says you will average 9.1 cents/KWH for 2,000 KWH. I'm actually paying 10.3 cents/KWH. All the other companies are pretty spot on with what they say vs what you get.

Got scammed by Just Energy at Sam's Club (Lost customer on first bill)
I was approached at Sams club by Just Energy representatives a month ago asking me to see my current electricity bill, I showed him and he said that he have some real good deal for 9.5 Cents KWh that is including TDU delivery charges and I just have to pay $4-$5 in taxes on top of 9.5 Cents KWh, I was paying 10.5 Cents all inclusive with previous company and he calculated my bill with his offered plan that I would have saved $70 if I have his plan on same uses, usualy I don't sign up for this kind of services without doing online research but he said that Just Energy have affiliation with Sams and being a Sam's customer for over 30 years, I decided to sign up and asked him twice to make sure that TDU charges are included in 9.5 cents and told me that it is all included in 9.5 Cents and I just have to pay $5 taxes on top of this, he satisfied me and I signed up for the service, today I got my first bill and I was surprised to see that Just energy charged me 14.2 Cents KWh including delivery charges for $108.00, I called customer service and I asked why your representative scammed me to make his sales commission by giving me wrong information, the lady told me that maybe I heard him wrong, I told her that I asked him same thing over ten times how I could have heard wrong, please be aware this is a scam company, please do not sign for service with Just Energy and do not believe what they tell you in Sam's Club. I am going to send a email to Sam's Club corporate office to look in to this matter and stop them from using Sam's reputation to scam innocent people.

Just awful!
I am new to the country and did some research and then called Just Energy. They sold me a 5 year plan without telling me about the additional costs when I specifically asked about them it. When I called to correct it, I got the worst possible service. First they told me I needed to go to billing department which then told me I needed to go to the renewals department. Just no one wanted to correct it or help me. I ended up cancelling my account. Just awful service!

Just Canceled This Energy Provider After ONLY 2 Months!
When switching to this company 2 months ago, they made it sound like they were the best provider out there! Why do they have to solicit at Sam's Club then? I did not buy it at Sam's (should have...they were offering some incentive!) I called them on my own. The provider that I did have was half the price! Living on SS...you need the best deals. When I received my bill in the mail, I was in shock! I have never had a bill so high since leaving the major supplier 6 - 7 years ago. I called and there was no dealing with them. Not only can I not afford to pay this doubled bill, they are charging me nearly $200 to cancel. I went with another company immediately. They misrepresented theirselves! This free nights is BS! We don't even use hardly any electricity after 6pm. I turn off all the lights anyway, but after 6 pm, the TV is about all that is on. Don't be fooled by this company! Rip-Off Energy is their new name in my book!

No Accountability
I have been on phone calls with Just Energy for over 3 hours today dealing with erroneous charges on my account. Per my contract, I was not to be assessed any ETF. When I received the charge, I called and the service associate assured me that the charges were removed from my account. I called back to make a final payment on my account, and the representative informed me that the account no longer reflected the waived ETF. Now I am back on hold to go through this process all over again.
I have repeatedly had trouble hearing the agents and many of the agents are unable to discuss and comprehend the charges as they are listed on my bill. When questioned, they always defer to another department. This causes the customer to have to re-explain the situation too many times over the course of one phone conversation.
I have to laugh about the message played while on hold. They claim to be the number 1 energy provider in Houston, but there are no other accolades from the multitude of states that they serve. I hope others stay away from this company because they will send you through a never ending cycle without any direct answers to your concerns.

Dishonest company
I was told by a sales rep at Sam's Club that if I switch to just energy they would cover my early termination fee from my previous electric provider. When I got my early termination fee bill of $400 from my previous electric provider, I asked for my refund from just energy but they told me they only cover up to $150. So I paid $400 to switch electric companies! I was also told that I wasn't in a contract and then I find out I have a three-year plan. This company doesn't care how they make their money they will lie steal and cheat to get it. Don't trust this company and their sales reps.

$20 Notice of Disconnect 3 days after due date
It is egregious and greedy to send out and charge a $20 Notice of Disconnect three days after the due date on a residential account. The late fee charged is reasonable and appropriate in that timeframe. But the $20 Notice of Disconnect three days after the due date is a greedy and a desperate over reach.Since Just Energy ( the owner of Amigo, Hudson, Tara and others) is trying to bounce back from its bankruptcy you would think the best approach would be to attract and retain customers, not shake them down for a one time fee and risk the customer getting upset and leaving Just Energy, and letting everyone they know not to use them.I also feel it is dishonest and sneaky that the portal had the "Pay" amount to include the $20 fee but no where on the site did I see an itemized charge for $20 DN - I discovered it by calling Just and questioning the charge. It is likely an intended tactic so that the unsuspecting customer doesn't realize what they are charged and will likely get hit with a similar charge in the future.

When I called customer service they were like too bad you signed and didnt read. Then I said so yall lie to people so theyll sign thats how yall get business? I was told Id have to pay early cancellation fee and they werent taking it off.

Signed up to try new company for natural gas. With variable rates they would cap at .79 cents per ccf. Dte was charging .29 cents per ccf and then a charge for distribution and recovery added to it for a total of 1.03 total cost. Just energy immediately charged me their .79 cent cap plus I was still charged distribution and recovery by DTE making my per ccf cost 1.38 plus another. 10 cent charge on top of there max cap price. I cancelled my account with them and they continued to charge me the agreed upon cap price of .79 plus a .10 that I don't r recall being discussed for the next month. My has bill would have been 226.47 with DTE and is instead 311.18 just energy. They are bullshit and will cheat you anyway they can buyer BEWARE!!!!

Dont do it
I signed up in Sams Club. The girl looked at my bill and said I would save money because they offered a flat fixed rate of 54.99 just as a special deal for Sams Club members. I thought it was too good to be true so I asked if the flat rate had a cap to which she replied no it doesnt! Then she carefully scrolled to where I needed to sign. This is my fault because I should have stood there in Sams Club with my cart full of groceries and read all of the contract. I think they are counting on people not wanting to do that. Turns out the flat rate is only for the first 900 kw. After that it is billed at 5.99 per kw. This is in no way a savings and would actually cost me more. But she stood right there and lied. When I actually got home and read the contract I called the company and canceled.
Just Energy still has kids in the local Sams club preying on unsuspecting, trusting people. Dont buy your energy supplier at the grocery store!

Purchased a home on March 4, 2022, went with Just Energy, as the previous homeowner had them. On March 7, and April 18th, electric was cut off. Just Energy does NOT DEACTIVATE the last homeowners that were in this house. They keep calling and turning our electric off!!! Each time this happens we lose work time, staying home, taking approximately 6 hours with them to get them to turn it back on!!! Then they don't take the blame for this happening, stating it isn't their fault! WHAT!!! No protection to your customers??!! This is an incurring issue, we would like to leave this company without early deactivation fees so we can be protected with an electric company that will use pass-codes, etc...to authenticate who we are on protecting our account.

You get roped in with getting a gift card. Deborah Fox lied about the rates, the pricing, and when we'd get the gift card. We signed up yesterday, of course they push you through and just tell you to sign things, and we thoroughly read the contract today. Deborah said it'd be 6 cents but the contract states 8.5 cents PLUS she stated $80 was for the first amount of usage however the contract says that's just the supplier fee. Our current, well previous, supplier fee was $30. Today we're calling, canceling, and will NEVER do this again. Keep your gift cards. I'm very sad Sam's Club partnered with you and I'll also be reaching out to them. I pay to shop there and don't need lied to as well as wasting my time.

YOUR BILL IS GOING TO BE OUTRAGEOUS DO NOT USE JUST ENERGY
I am new to Texas and upon moving in my 3 bedroom duplex in November, my landlord suggested just energy. She told me they give free nights. So I went ahead with this company and agreed to a 12 month contract. NO free nights! No free or reasonably priced ANYTHING. My bill is easily well over $130 every month even though its just my son and I living here and the house is unoccupied from 7 am until after 6 pm daily. Two TVs in the entire home both of which are turned off by 9:30 when my son goes to bed. We have the same amount of usage every month consistently, we started off with our bill at $79 and now this month we are at $160. OH and I agreed to a 12 month contract in November 2021, my account shows they entered in a contract date that doesnt end until 2024. Horrible scamming crooks. Ill be paying the $175 cancellation fee and washing my hands of this garbage company.

DO NOT switch to this company as your energy supplier. I just received my first bill with Just Energy as my supplier and it was almost $200 more than my previous bill (from $160 to $330).The plan I was enrolled in was NOT explain properly and was simply a scam to get my business. I reviewed my bill with the agent I enrolled with and was assured multiple times that my bill would NOT increase. This was a blatant LIE. I cancelled this company IMMEDIATELY but am stuck with them for another billing cycle until it switches back to my previous supplier (energy harbor), who happens to be a whole lot cheaper and much more honest. Beware of the gimmicks they try to use to get your business. I will post reviews on every sight I can so nobody else has to deal with this predatory businesses and their unethical business practices.

I, like many other people who have reviewed, thought that this sounded like a great deal when I was shopping at Sams Club and the Just Energy people approached me. They led me to believe that I would be saving money on my natural gas bill and my bill has not went down at all, in fact it has went up! They get you by approaching you in a Sams Club, who you would think is a reputable company and would not pair up with a company who would lead you to believe you will be saving money. I recently received a bill from my gas company that I owe a large amount of money so I called and we went over the bill and I found out that Just Energy is actually making a lot of money off me and I had no idea since they mislead me with their information to get me to sign up. Who has all their gas bills while they are shopping at Sams Club to compare apples to apples.
WHAT A JOKE!

I have been a loyal customer for over five years, used their electricity in two different homes. I will NOT be continuing my service with them.

My bill has tripled, even with it being the warmer months of the year I have never paid as much as I am paying now. For the same plan, keeping my thermostat at 80 during the day and I am on their Free Nights Plan.

DO NOT USE JUST ENERGY THEY SAY ANYTHING TO GET YOU SIGNED ON THEN YOUR BILL WILL DOUBLE!
Due to our mistake we received a cut off notice. My daughter-n-law tried paying by phone where you enter your card number. The transaction declined twice so she was transfered to an agent who then told her that she was not an authorized user. The electricity got turned off. Just energy ran her card again and it went through. In the meantime I paid the amount due (i have a toddler and a teenager in the house with no electricity). Well now the the balance was paid twice. I called to get my money returned I was told it was still in pending status. I would have to wait. I called again a couple of days later because it is no longer in pending status. I was told i would have to contact my bank and get a letter stating that that the money went through. I emailed just energy and was told that it would take up to `10 days for the money to be returned. Well now I get this "Thank you for your recent inquiry regarding your account. As a valued customer of Just Energy, our goal is to ensure that your questions and concerns are answered within a timely manner.We can see a payment of $403.10 was processed twice on October 7th, 2022. However, by the time the payment was made, the bill for October was already generated on the account. The total bill was for $846.10, including the past due balance. With the excess payment you have made, the bill was adjusted with the payment, and there is a remaining balance of $64.90.
We apologize the money has been adjusted to the previous bills.Should you have any further questions or concerns, please contact Customer Support at -866-587-8674." Now they decided to add the money to my account. In this day and time when my family struggles to make ends meet. And yes by the grace of God we are able to make ends meet. I can hardly beleive this is happening. Also I was told my useage would be at 14kwats and its NOT its at 18! they lie. They do not even deserve a star.

This company is a scamer and crooks
I've have never heard so much BS when you complain of why my bill is so hi . I left there service first they promised to pay up to 150 for canceling your membership in your old service company never happened. That your bill will be under 90.00 dollars. Yeah sure never was my bill 90 dollars my bill was 200 plus every month while my neighbors have 78 dollar . I should be able to put up the bill so everyone can see it . They send me a bill for $284.59 for a total use of 35 kwh what that tells you that the have a standard billing it don't matter what your usage is they must get a minimum of 250 from you. I wonder is there any government agency that controls them oh hold on we also have a suspicious government elected . I wonder why can't I go directly to central energy . They even charge delivery. And believe me I've waited outside of my house every day looking for a truck or a van delivering my electric. You know that's sarcastic yeah . But why this charges you take your car to the mechanic they charge you a labor rate yes but they don't charge you for the tools they use . Can you imagine that . This BS has to stop

Uncaring company
I paid all but 4.76 cents of my electric bill and they still were going to cut my electric off.
I was told that there was nothing else they could do. It made me feel like they did not care enough about their customers to even try to help me. I am looking for another service that has at least a customer service team that seem to care enough to try to help it's clients who are in need with trying to make arrangements

Fraud--Plain and simple
I signed up via comparepower.com for a rate of 10.9 per kwh on 1000. Ad states as all of their add do "No hidden fees. The rates shown below already include all fees, discounts, and Oncor delivery charges." I was charged for delivery. When I contacted the company, they simply sent my contract back. When I reached them via phone, they refused to credit the overcharges.I complained to BBB at which point I was contacted by their rep. who first said comparepower was a third party and they were not responsible for the content, then said that I misunderstood the ad. Again, he refused to credit the overcharges. He said they would be waiving the 175 cancellation fee. When I asked about my deposit, he said they keep it a year!! What type of company does this?

Just Energy is a scam
I was shopping in Sam's Club and was talked into switching my energy company from Reliant to Just Energy. If I could give them zero stars I would! My bill has barely been below $300.00 each month and with Reliant my bill was usually around $150.00 to $250.00 each month.
BE AWARE they have tons of hidden fees. Also if you don't pay your bill on the exact due date they charge a 5% of your total bill fee and then another $20.00 if it's not paid within 3 days of the due date. I regret ever switching to this company and I will be switching providers as soon as possible.

Terrible systems in place and not the most responsive support team
Just Energy has continued to have faults during my time with them. I had moved from one location to another, but they kept charging me for the previous location because they did not process the transfer request fully. It took months for them to correct this. Forcing me to pay money for an address I wasn't using. Afterwards, they tried to charge me for a remaining balance on that address even though it was not rightfully mine.
They "refunded" my money in the form of account credit which was an issue, because I was already not going to renew my account. To get reimbursed for what they owe me, They said I needed to wait until account closure and for the final bill which would then be refunded to my card on file.
I contacted support to make sure it would be refunded, and they then told me that they can only refund in the form of a check that would take 5 to 6 WEEKS of processing. They no longer allow refund through the card as they did before.
Avoid this electric company at all costs. It's processes, Support, and responsiveness are by far the worst I have dealt with.

Stay far away from Just Energy
They cut off my power yesterday claiming someone "put in for a service transfer to a different provider" even though no one in my household did, and JE could not tell me who/when made this request. After spending 3 hours with different customer reps yesterday I was told they could not reconnect power since it was after 12:00pm and it would be restored the following day but I would have to create a new account in order to get power restored. At that point in my fury, I said I would not be creating a new account with them and would be switching companies. They said then I would have to pay the $175 termination fee since I didn't finish my contract (when in reality THEY terminated my contract by disconnecting my service). It was the most asinine roundabout idiotic conversation I have ever had and was transferred to approximately 5 supervisors who were less helpful and more rude than their underlings. I am going on 24 hours with no power in 100 degree heat. I will NEVER recommend this company to anyone.

Worst experience
Signed up with Just Energy at Sam's Club, MD based on the sales pitch from a woman portraying to be a JE agent, saying that I would be saving a lot of money by paying almost half the cost per kwh of what I am paying with the current provider. Then she showed me a comparison between the current price that I am paying versus the JE bill. Apples to apples. She showed it on her iPad. JE's bill was lower by $100. I went ahead and signed with JE. She also told me there is no obligation to cancel. No fees charged. It turned out when the first month bill came JE charged me $100 more than what my normal bill was. Instead of seeing a reduction over my monthly bill I saw an increase by $100. Immediately I called my old utility company and had them switch from JE. Since I was already into the second month, JE charged me $100 plus another $50 for the half month. It's a good thing that I caught this early otherwise they would lock me in for three years with no way out and if I ever wanted to get out, there would be early termination fees. I immediately called the JE customer service and they told me that I should have read the fine print of the contract. I believed the sales agent's words when she showed me the price difference. What the agent never mentioned was that the JE would charge in addition to what I am paying monthly. How would that help me? Why would I switch to another utility provider if it does not benefit me? Why do I want to pay an extra $100 or more every month? This is a simple common sense question. Switching I thought would help me reduce the monthly payment. JE did not refund the money that I paid them nor did I ever receive the gift cards from them. This is a big scam. The lesson learned here is to never sign up from a third party energy supplier, especially at the Sam's Club. Do your research. I came to buy groceries at Sam's Club and not to shop for energy suppliers. Sam's Club should not allow this type of scammer at their stores. I've lost almost $200 for no reason and not to mention the pain and suffering. Who is responsible for my money loss? Does Sam's Club refund my money?

One of my first energy companies that I signed with. I was told very clearly and explicitly over phone and in person that if I wanted to leave early I would be able to at no charge. Left early, got a charge of almost $200 exit fee. This doesn't even talk about the problems i had with the auto payment randomly not working with no email saying that theres a problem. Awful money grabbing company- ridiculously expensive also.

Run From Just Energy
In a recorded conversation on 7/6/23 with Just Energy sales person on a recorded line I told her multiple times I wanted the start date to be 7/11/23. She said that date was fine and in ending our conversation said the start I preferred had been noted on the contract. On the same day, 7/6/23, I changed my mind and sent a cancellation of the agreement to their customer service email. Just Energy ignored both the start date I requested and the cancellation of agreement I sent them on 7/6/23 and opened service on 7/8/23. I found them to be an unethical company in my short experience with them.

The cut my service by mistake
Some not very smart person at Just Energy disconnected my service, even though, there was no reason to. I lost power at 11:30am in 115 degree weather. I called just energy to make sure it was nothing on their end and they said it was not. I then reported an outage with Centerpoint because I did not know what else to do. Turns out someone at Just Enrgy disconnected my service in error which I did not find out until 6:30pm when I called again. They could not reconnect until the next day. I have a 3 years old. Because of that persons mistake I was left with no power for almost 24 hours. My food has gone bad. I had to go somewhere else to work, since I work from home.

I was approached by a Just energy representative that explained my bill would be extremely low, if transferred to their company. She indicated that would be great promotions incentives given to me, gift cards, A cancellation fee would be paid by just energy and they will handle everything. I dont need to call TXU. She encouraged me to run my AC all night and that will be taken off the day billing cycle. Heres my problem? My service was transferred to just Andrew as she indicated. however, I had to pay the cancellation fee, and now its on my credit report as Jess energy didnt take care of it as she promised! The gift card promotions, that was promised, she said oh Im sorry it was an error they wouldnt (just energy) except the promotion!! OMG Im a single mother with a special needs child. The last thing I need is to pick up additional billing. All I had to do was call TXU and work out a plan as I have been with them for years!! With Texas being so hot, the Sales pitch seem to be so unreal, but I was willing to give it a try! Unfortunately, I should have followed my first mind and stay with TXU and now Im upside down with my bill and the way more than I needed to pay. I feel the representative need to get a commission I lied for this purpose. My credit means so much to me, and now just energy should be more transparent with the representatives in the information thats given to the general public!! my main focus need to be on my special-needs daughter, not finances!

Liars they lie about the rate and cancellation fees
They got me at Sams club the second time I was in Sams. They told me if I switch I wouldnt have any cancellation fees. I have to pay my previous company 195 for cancellation fee. Just energy said oh we will reimbursed you for switch and pay you the fee which was $150 it doesnt cover for the whole cancellation fee of previous provider so I just thought it will be ok. So they offer free nights and showed you ghost bills they lied about the rate. My rate was 0.21c for kWh something and the girl that got me told me it was going to be .11 cents for kWh so my bill just kept getting bigger and bigger. Now my bill from June 14-july18 was $255 and I used them 4 days after that. So my bill is 632.67 now! Cancellation fee 150 and exit fee 175 wth!!!! What is all this and other fees that I have no idea where they came from! This is a deceitful company! Dont trust them they lied!!!!!! Now Im stuck with other fees that I cant pay

I was approached by a male just energy rep while I was shopping at Sam's club. He asked how much per kilowatt I was paying for my electric bill. I let him know that it was approximately $17.00. He immediately started telling me how their plans cuts my biis into half. He got my attention so I asked him how? He stated that just energy will be approximately $8.00 per kilowatt. After this man scrolling down his I pad and showed me the amount I would be saving, I fell for it and signed a 3 year contract. My recent bill was so high so I contacted customer service only to find out that I'm being charged almost $ .24 cents per kilowatt and not the approximately $.08 cent per kilowatt I was sold. Customer service rep could not make the changes so he said the supervisor would call to discuss. 2 week later no one has contacted me.

Do not sign up!
Do not use them. Ever. I signed up because they had the cheapest rates in our area. Huge mistake. If you can not make your payment by the due date, they will send you a disconnect notice on the 3rd day past the due date. And that disconnect notice is dated for 2 weeks after the due date. For us specifically, the due date was July 17th, disconnect notice (which I didn't get in the mail by the way) was sent out on the 20th with a disconnect due date of July 31st. I tried to set up a payment arrangement BEFORE the due date and couldn't because I had a zero past due balance and couldn't set one up after because they require half down for the payment. And forget getting transferred to a supervisor. Literally every time I've tried it disconnects. Once I spent an hour on hold before giving up. Another time it rang back to regular call takers. I even called too close to the end of the day and after spending 15 minutes on hold it kicked off to a "after hours" message before disconnecting. Tell me that supervisor didn't decided to not pick up because he or she was ready to go home. This company is terrible.

I was tricked into switching from my previous company in Sam's Club, their sales people are liars, providing false info, & over promising. their free night plan is a scam to get you bound into the highest rate. you realize this in couple of months, and when you switch they lock their online portal for you to make any changes. so basically when you switch , they load up your final invoice with Bu...it charges and you can't make any changes in your auto pay. kind of forced into whatever they charge you. Idk , if this is even legal. i wish I can rate them in negative. They should be named UNJUST ENERGY

Unethical
My husband was approached at a 'wholesale club' by a Just Energy representative and was given a good pitch although he stated he would not agree to make a change to their company until he discussed it with me. He was told he would receive an email with all details and had three days to confirm or reject the offer. We never received an email, a phone call or any communication from them. It took us four days of trying their phone numbers to get through and was hung up on multiple occasions. Nice!! Just Energy was able to change our provider, without our authorization. How they were able to accomplish that move without our electric company account information is quite scarey! I would never recommend them, to say the least. Be warned.

Thieves
Run. Ask them if they have a cancelation charge. If this comapny comes to you from a venue, know why they are marketing this way. If they tell you they will not charge you for canceling your service, I have a picture of this lie. I had to cancel my service because one, their online portal would not show me a current bill. Two , would not even allow me to set up auto pay and not allow me to make a payment online. Three, took over one hour on the phone and I had to hang up because i could not wait for a service rep over the phone, and the last straw was when the one time i reached a rep said, WELL you cannot have the late fee cancelled because you could have paid thorugh our automated phone payment. I told her i was not gpoing to auto pay a high bill with out having someone tell me what all the charges were. SO IF YOU DO sign up, and you read this. make sure you cancel within 15 days. The law allows this, according to what a relative has told me. I had a vdeo of the sales person telling me there would be no cancelation fee. Bold. Yet It was accidentally deleted.

Some guy name Nana Buah PUC Certificate No. 10052 forced me to sign a contract at SAM's Club promising 9 cents per KW but turned out to be 26.5 cents per KW and within the less than 2 months my bill is $400 they are threatening to disconnect tomorrow Nov 9. I filed a complaint but they don't give a flip, since they are in India!

Representative LIED!
I would like to cancel this contract. I was at Kroger when your representative approached me yesterday. He quoted me a rate of 6.9 cents per kilowatt. When I got home and read this contract, it states over 8 cents per kilowatt. Please cancel this NOW! And inform your representatives to say the truth! He did not show me what I was signing, just told me to hit the blocks for automatic signatures. The blocks and writing was so small I couldnt read it. I am very upset. Please address this request ASAP! I do not want to wait for the billing cycle to start!
Thank you for your prompt response,

The biggest scam I've ever experienced in my life in Texas
I was guaranteed to never have a bill in excess of $50.00 a month. Only because I only use less than 500 kwh per month or less. On my first bill it was 16 days and they charged me 26.2 cents per kwh which was nowhere near what I was guaranteed to be charged. I was told no more than 16 cents which was obviously a gigantic lie. All this was done at Sam's club and if they knew how badly the people were being lied to, there's no way in hell Sam Walton would allow a company to use his name to perpetrate such a huge lie in his family name. There is no way I will pay the bill they sent me all based on the lies I was told by such a terrible company. I told the representative I would only pay what I was promised to change my electric company to the joke that I'm stuck with now.

This company is totally scam
I recently had a terrible experience with Just Energy, and I feel compelled to share my story to warn others about their deceitful practices.
First and foremost, Just Energy misled me into believing that their energy rates were cheaper than my local utility provider, ComEd. However, after switching to their service, I discovered that this couldn't be further from the truth. Not only were their rates higher, but they also failed to inform me about the additional charges hidden within the contract agreement.
One of the most egregious charges I encountered was the mysterious "green leaf" program, which purportedly added $40 to my bill every month. I never consented to this program, nor was I provided with any explanation of its purpose. When I reached out to their customer service for clarification, I was met with hostility and intimidation tactics. They repeatedly threatened me, claiming that all calls were recorded, and refused to address my concerns.
Furthermore, communicating with their customer service representatives was a nightmare. They are difficult to understand, making it nearly impossible to effectively communicate my issues.
Despite being at work for the majority of the day and living in a modest two-bedroom apartment, my energy bills skyrocketed after switching to Just Energy. Instead of the promised savings, I found myself facing bills that were triple the amount I was accustomed to paying.
Overall, my experience with Just Energy has been nothing short of a nightmare. Their deceptive practices, exorbitant charges, and appalling customer service have left me feeling frustrated and taken advantage of. I urge anyone considering their services to proceed with extreme caution and explore alternative options to avoid falling victim to their unethical business practices.

Nothing that was presented to me was real.
Price, contract, exit fees etc. Luckily for me, the no deposit wavier was denied before they even ran a credit check and I actually read the agreement I signed. I tried to contact "my representative" but customer service is in India and it is impossible to do regardless of what I was told.

Unstable Salesman
Salesman ran up on me and my husband as we were bringing groceries into the house, and my husband told him no thank you. Dude proceeded to yell "Don't close the door!" as we did, because we told him no already. Proceeds to knock on our door after we shut it. We tell him to go away, not interested through the door. He knocks again, ignore it. Knocks again, husband knocks back hoping he'll get the hint. He knocks again, I yell at him to **** off through the door because why the hell is he still there? He's reading as crazy/dangerous at this point. He knocks AGAIN and my husband has to finally open the door and yell at him before he finally leaves us alone. Except now I'm getting text messages from this guy Tarrick saying he talked to my roommate (she also told him to leave us alone) and asking me when the best time to speak is. Why the does this unstable man have my phone number???????

Have an account in PA called customer (866) 587-8674 (Number that is in my bill) service and nobody is able to connect me to PA to close my account because of course instead of helping, my bill has increased double after Im with Just Energy, none of the number customer service provided worked, even more, none of the customer service knew how to put me in contact with PA, they continue transferring me going round and round for 4 hours. This people are literally stealing $$ from me. I have evidence of every single second, minute, hour, day, week etc etc 24/7 when power is used and this building is used only for storage maybe 30 minutes a day average only lights. If nobody calle me, Im gonna close the account with PECO buy a generator (because is all I need due to the use of this location) and wont pay this bill.

Lack of empathy/No payment confirmation through email
New review for today: Sat 5/18/2024
Ive been a Just Energy customer for years now and on 5/9/2024 I did a payment arrangement to avoid disconnection on my service. Payment went through but never received an email confirmation by Just energy like I normally receive with the terms. Today 5/18/24 Saturday Im speaking to a representative over the phone a guy most likely from India about not receiving my payment confirmations like I normally receive them and he blames me that it is my email address or email domain at fault. He then tests and sends over a bill through email while on the phone and comes through right away with no issues and along with a survey for me to answer, but not a bill of confirmation of payments made. He explained he wont fix anything on their end nor bring it to the attention to their IT because Im just one customer complaining about the payment issue and no one else is. This is terrible customer service and I tell him how are we supposed to be making payments, if we wont have any proof of payments being made with no confirmations? I can always change companies for this reason since I do not have the trust in Just Energy to just take their word that payments are going through, when I cant get proof by email nor mail that payments are going through.? This will not work for me! Either fix the issue with payment confirmations that customers can receive by email or you will loose a customer over this. He tells me he wont do it and he cant stop me from leaving to another company. Very lack of respect on his part with customers. If one customer service representative does not care and says words like that, trust me when I say no one else in that company will care either. The rep and most likely the whole company believe that customers not receiving their payment confirmations are not a big deal! and that will allow them power over customers to decide when or when not to disconnect your service since their is no proof of payments. This is a bad company for business!! And I am currently searching for new service elsewhere online as we speak. Because just like that rep told me over the phone he cant keep me from leaving. He was right! They lack empathy. My concern is I need to know where my money is going to with proof. Not your word. Your word means crap. No confirmation receipts no payment made. The way I see it. You dont care for customers, then we do not care for you! and we will take our hard earned money and go somewhere else where we are truly valued customers. And no false advertisements

Terrible company
I signed up at Sam's club. I thought this would be a great deal. Not. My bill was twice the price I was paying. I was told at Sam's club when I signed up that there wasn't an early cancellation fee for Sam's club members. I also called customer service for Just Energy. Customer service also told me that there was no early cancellation fee for Sam's club members. What a lie. I paid my last bill and I paid the $150 they credited me for early termination of my other electric company. I only had 2 days left in my other contract. Lol yes I wasn't thinking in the middle of grocery shopping. So no my early cancellation fee for Just Energy is in collection for a $183. I always pay my bills on time. Why should I pay something I shouldn't had too.

Misleading
The salesperson came to my home and said he could get me a better rate, which he did, but my bill was still high because of delivery charges. My last company had a higher rate, but delivery charges were not more than 7 dollars. Example is below.
Energy Charges...................................................... $69.30
Base Charge........................................................... $9.95
TDSP Delivery Charges......................................... $34.20
My Kwh was 660, and my bill is 120 dollars for a two-bedroom bathroom apartment. I was misled for sure.

Zero Stars if I could!
Lies and false sales pitches. Dated July 5th, 2024. A salesmen [Cody] arrives on my doorstep giving his pitch for Just Energy free weekends plan. Explained that it wasnt just free but also a credit against the other 115 hours of the week. Lies it is only a credit against itself the remainder is full price no exceptions. Also claimed no free nights plan. Also lies, there is one from 9pm-7am. Also lied about there being no early termination if I was unsatisfied for any reason. Of course he signed me up for 36 months and to leave is minimum $175. Do not join Just Energy! You will not save any money and will find it to be an expensive lesson. The customer support was at the least Honest and was well aware that the plan was terrible and advised me seek out better providers for my situation.

Never has my bill been this high! $500 for a monthly bill and I was with no electricity from Hurricane Beryl for 6 days. I tried to chat with someone concerning this issue and no help at all. If you don't pay you're bill on time, they will either turn off your electricity or charge you $20 fee for not paying it 2 days after the due date! I do not recommend this electricity company ever. Don't make a mistake by contracting with them.

unfair trade practices
- Pressure Sales : May 2024 - I was shopping in Sam's club when a Just Energy sales person approached me and talked about switching services. She said I can get 18.9 cent plan with free nights. She followed me while I was shopping and persuaded me to switch service. I already had a contract on my existing plan which will have a 280$ termination charge. She promised JustEnergy will reimburse the early termination fee of my previous provider . She also confirmed that this JustEnergy plan will not have any termination fees for cancelling.
Incorrect Information and false promises : After enrolling I noticed I have been charged at 28.6 cents. I called Just energy and they referred me to EFL which has a thin line print. The sales person never explained to me the additional 10 cent delivery charges. I followed up on my reimbursement of termination charges. They reimbursed only 150$ out of the 280$ termination fee citing that there is a limit for the reimbursement. This was also not informed.
Sticker Shock - Realizing the high charges between June and July. I decided to switch to a new service provider. Once I switched I got a call from Just Energy that I have a cancellation charge of 175$. In addition they are charging back the 150$ reimbursement that was promised and paid by them.

Refund Status??
It has been over two months waiting to receive a refund because a just energy advisor mistakenly switched my service to the completely wrong apartment. I was moving and wanted to make sure my service transferred, but the advisor kept giving me the wrong address, even after I confirmed multiple times that she had the wrong address. She told me everything would be fine. Literally scammed? Did she know what she was doing or was she negligent? Either way, do yourself a favor and use green mountain energy. They are so much better.
In short, Im owed over $450 for energy charges I was paying for an apartment on the complete other side of the city. Now Im trying to call customer service and Ive been in the queue for 45 minutes. I just want a status update, or to know if the refund is also a lie.

Avoid just energy
Terrible company. Went to them to try to give another company a try when I decided to leave reliant, terrible mistake on my behalf.
Every bit of their business is shady. They do not send confirmations when you pay online. I am in my 20s, I don't enroll for paper billing for anything, yet they never sent my bills paperfree online as requested. I submitted the paperfree request multiple times, because every month I wad late because they did not email the bill! By the time they mailed the bill and it was delivered, the disconnect bill was being delivered the same or next day, adding a damn late fee! I was with them from March, I believe, until the end of July, I received 3 emails from them, the final bill, the initial confirmation that I requested service, and the account information. Not a single monthly bill or payment confirmation.
My service has been ended with them for 3 weeks, yet somehow my final bill is still increasing.
Bills were astronomically high, hard to get on the phone with someone, the bill issues. I was with reliant for 6 years, I believe, honestly didn't have issues with contacting them, receiving or paying bills, confirmation emails, just the bills kept getting higher when you had to renew your contract. I was going to go back to them, but tried green mountain just because the plan I wanted to go back to with reliant was cheaper with green mountain.

Just like the recent reviews, avoid them!
I was with them from March to the end of July. I'm in my 20s, have always enrolled for paperless billing in any and everything that I do. My few months with them, I received only 3 emails, initial request for service, initial account information and final bill. I never received my monthly bills or payment confirmations. Every month I kept submitting request for paper free billing yet never received my bills online. By the time they sent the bills by mail and it made it throughthe USPS system, they were sending a disconnect notice and I was receiving them both the same day or a day apart, resulting in a late fee every month from them because these scammers refused to honor request of paperfree billing!
I have had service terminated with them over 3 weeks ago and yet, they are still adding fees to a final bill from them?? An ACH reject fee(I use the same account to pay every bill and have had that amount almost 2 decades, yet it rejected for them??), and a late fee(I terminated service, I am not with you guys anymore!!)
I will be putting negative reviews everywhere that I can from them and will be reporting them to the public utility commission.

I have been talking to the female sales reps in Midland,Tx. They are offering an in-store promotion (too good to be true). They don't know their product and need proper training. I asked them if the 9.50 cents per Kw is fixed or does it fluctuate. The girl did not know. She had to call someone and finally I got an answer. The promotion of 9.50 cents per Kw fluctuates. She said you can call in after 2 months to get the rate locked in. I said no thank you and walked off.

Do not overpay and have a credit with these people . I used to pay an overpayment of about $300 to $400 to keep my bill where I wouldn't have to pay it until the money went down to around $75. I sold my house and when I went to ask for my over age which is around $270 they refuse to pay it because they said they weren't responsible for me over paying.

This company has a mobile app. The mobile app does not work you cannot pay your bill from the app. That is the whole purpose of the app is to be able to pay your bill and take care of your business online. But the way they have their set up is that it does nothing but merely waste your time and then after attempting over and over and over to pay your bill after countless man-hours you eventually run out of time then they double your bill if you can get energy from anywhere else in the world do it do not use these people I don't even know how they're in business they're not listed with the Better Business Bureau.

Very poor customer relations when they screw up
I have been with Just Energy for over 10 years. I spoke with 2 representatives recently and signed a new contract. I recorded our conversation and so did Just Energy. The representative explained everything thoroughly and I agreed and signed up that day. The agreement was my next bill will be $99 + shipping cost + taxes. My bill should be somewhere near $120 - $130. On the phone I wanted clarified again. We both agreed that my next bill will be that amount. My next bill was $302. After letting the company review our conversation of our verbal agreement, they agree that what I say is true. BUT they will not honor the agreement. The employee made a mistake. I understood that the new contract would start the day I signed it. They understood that they screwed up and said sorry. Not good enough. I definitely feel like I have been scammed. Not happy at all. Talking to their customer service is like talking to a wall.
