Featured Review for Bounce Energy
Awesome
I love Bounce Energy. I have had so many wonderful experiences with them. My bill has always been reasonable but I hate that they switched us over to Direct Energy. Since then, my bill has been outrageous like over $300. I never received a $300 when I was with Bounce Energy. Please come back Bounce Energy.

Great company with perks!
Check out this cool deal from Bounce Energy. When you sign up for electricity service, we both get $75 for the month of April.
Way to get those referrals! We love hearing that our customers are so satisfied with their service that they would recommend it to others. We hope that we continue to provide great service. Have a wonderful week - Kate

Great Electricity Provider
Its very good electric company and I have been using since 3 years without any problem. After switching to this provider my bill almost reduced to half. Also they have very good reward program and gives you cash back of $50 , $25 etc on time to time like for 3 or 6 months or if autopay chosen. Their rates are decent and didn't get any problems so far and it is very easy to switch to Bounce Energy.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We truly apologize it has taken us this long to respond to it, but we honestly appreciate you taking the time to tell others about your wonderful experience. We hope you have a great week! Thanks - Kate

BEST LITTLE SECRET IN TEXAS
I have never been so pleased with any utility service provider. Lowest rates for my area. No surprises. Professionalism every time. Recommend very highly!

I changed to Bounce Energy and I am not regretting it.
I had been another company for 1.5 years but their prices just kept rising every time I renovated the contract.
The reward programs with Bounce Energy are pretty cool and there is always an incentive to have the customers happy and saving money!
Grecia, thank you for taking time to share your experience. We appreciate your business! All the best, -Jane

Best Electricity Comapany
I have been with Bounce Energy for two years and I have nothing but great things to say about them. Prices are low, they reward fun gift cards for on-time payments, and have great customer service. I sadly will be leaving Bounce Energy due to my apartments being bought out, and they were kind enough to wave my cancellation fee. I plan to be back!
Hi Cris. Thank you for the feedback. We are glad to hear that you had a good experience while being a customer of ours. We look forward to providing you with service in the future. Thank you, -Jane

Great Electric Options, Great Incentives, Great Company.
I've been with Bounce for over 2 years now and I must say, they are the best energy provider thus far. Prices are fair and they offer great incentive programs.
Thank you for leaving such a great review Kim! We really appreciate you as a customer and if you ever have any questions about your services, please feel free to reach out to us. Have a great weekend! - Kate

Best Electricity Provider in TX
I have been using since around 2 years and no problems with bills and payments, quick customer service, low rates. They have very excellent Rewards and promotions programs for every three or six months like $50 credit to your account, $50 Restaurant gift card for on-time payment, $15 Starbucks Gift card and One month free electricity.
We're happy you've chosen us for the last two years Rahil! Thank you for the kind words. We look forward to keeping you as a customer in the future. Sincerely, - Henry

Stop looking... Bounce is the best!
I switched electricity providers every 6 months to a year until I switched to Bounce over two years ago. I have not been able to come up with a good reason to switch to another provider since then. Bounce has an awesome rewards program (no other provider I had ever used offered one) and their rates are competitive. Twice they have given me a 'match the rate' discount to keep me as a customer. The only times I have needed to contact them was before contract renewal times and their customer service was great. I am still the type of person who will check and make sure I am getting a good deal come my next renewal time period, but I couldn't be happier with Bounce right now. If you switch, I think you'll be happy! Thank you and good luck!
Thank you for the wonderful review Karen! We're so happy you love the service. Sincerely, - Henry

Cheap and Rewarding
I've had Bounce Energy for 2 years now and they've yet to disappoint! Rent is generally $40 a month for my apartment in Arlington,Texas and I get rewards for paying on time such as gift cards and movie tickets.
It's great to hear you are enjoying the rewards program! Thank you for your unwavering support. - Ally

Thinking of changing energy providers?
Consider BOUNCE ENERGYI have been with BOUNCE for the last 3 years, and havent looked back.After you become a customer, you get your own code to share with family/friends.Check out their rates, and customize a plan that is right for you.Get other perks, $5.00 birthday credit, free movie tickets, and a $100. Visa gift card, for on time bill pay.I just renewed my service for 2 more years, because I have paid my bill on time, I get a 3% discount, every month.Do IT !!
We're so happy to have you as a customer for the last 3 years Ellen! We look forward to having you as a customer for the next 3! Sincerely, - Henry

Rewarded for Just Paying Your Bill On Time
I've been with Bounce for over two years now and have had no problems. They literally reward you just for paying your bill on time. I'm on AutoPay and I get rewards every few months for doing essentially nothing. Coming up on a free month of electricity in a few months! Also, they give credits for referrals.
Hi Tom! We are glad to hear you are enjoying our rewards and appreciate your loyalty. - Ally

You won't regret switching to Bounce!
I switched electric companies every 6 months to a year until I switched to Bounce 2 years ago. I just renewed today for another year. I'm not sure if I will ever switch companies again... and that is a relief! Their customer service is great although I have not had to call them for much over the last two years. They offered me a 'beat the competitor's discount' to keep me as a customer as well as a bill credit. When you see other much lower rates - make sure you read the fine print as there is usually a catch. I have not had any problems with Bounce Energy over the last two years and highly recommend them! What other company out there offers a rewards program that pays YOU back??? None that I've found. Good luck with your search, but if I were you I'd stop here!
Thank you for remaining a loyal customer to us. We are happy to hear your positive experience and will continue to improve. Have a great week! -Ally

As good as it gets!
I have been using this company since 2014 and I really haven't had a complaint about their service. I have gotten a lot of different rewards and their customer service is great. They usually answer their phones pretty quickly and they don't try to "Bounce" you around.
We are sorry that we did not see your post until now. We appreciate feedback and are always willing to help with any issue that may need resolution. We can be contacted at DEdigitalcare@directenergy.com anytime! -Eden

Great discounts and company.
I have now been with Bounce 3 months doing month by month. My bill has not gone over 60 dollars. They promised me great service and that is what Im getting.

Great company!
Overall, bounce energy gives me good rates and has great customer service. Every time I've called customer service they've been nothing but helpful and understanding. I live in a 1 story 3 bedroom home that's about 1500 sq ft and my bill never goes above $60 in the summer time. During the winter I only pay about $30!!
This is great to hear Leeya! Thank you for taking time out of your day to provide us with this review! We hope you have a great day! - Kelsey

$100 off your first months bill!
I've been with them for over 3 years, and don't plan on switching companies any time soon. I personally can't stand the heat and at my house the AC is on 24 hours a day, but my bill would never go higher than about $60 for my 2 bedroom apartment. I've been with them for over 3 years, and i've never had any issues or complaints. As far as for the rewards, I've ALWAYS received my reward (my favorite being my chickfila gift card).
Thank you for the great review Leeya! Please let us know if we may assist you with any questions in the future! You may email us at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com for assistance. -Elle

Finally a company I plan to stay with!
I moved to Texas 5 years ago and switched electric companies every 6 - 12 months (from Startex to Frontier to Champion) until I switched to Bounce in January 2015. I expected to change again in January 2016 but I have been so happy with their service and with my bills... that I think I am going to stick with them for a while. Their rewards program is awesome! Even if you find a rate that is a little lower, Bounce's rewards will surely make up the difference if you pay on time. Customer service was great for the very few times I've had to call.
Hi Karen! Thank you for the wonderful review! Please let us know if you have any questions or suggestions on how we may improve your experience! We're always taking suggestions via email at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com. All the best, - Henry

Impressed New Customer
Bounce has been great so far!! It was pretty easy to set up a new account (just call and the customer service rep will do everything for you), but what I really like about them are the promotions! They have a ton! My last electric company (BTX utilities) didn't do stuff like that, at least to my knowledge. I haven't had to pay yet, and I've been a customer for two months. That says a lot to me. I also was able to get a fully green plan, which was important to me. You can get $50 if you use a promotion code (that's what I did).

Have been 1 year of user. Very satisfied
As a one year customer, we feel very satisfied. The highlight point is the bill is very clear and understandable. No trick, No so called extremely low price with adding some other credit or cost on your bill to surprise you. So, we continue with Bounce energy and keep watching on the price. Hope it will be another good year as before.

Great Company!
I've had Bounce Energy for a couple of years now in Alvin, TX. I've had absolutely no issues with them. I've even transferred services recently and was able to switch to a cheaper plan. I've read some of the negative reviews here and a few people mentioned that their kwh has doubled after switching plans - personally (in my opinion), I think their usage just went up so because of that, the "average kwh" that they are seeing on their bill is higher, which leads them to think that it is higher in general. That's not the case at all. It just shows the average kwh of what you're paying, which is in relation to, well, how much electricity you use.

Great pricing..
Overall excellent service. Only issue is seeing the bill online, can never open the details only the current amount. I like the weekly updates. Other than that no problem.
So far so good

Best provider for electricity in texas
One of the best electricity provider in texas. They have good plans whhich saves money. Excellent website to understand your bill. Most of all have superb rewards program.
Stop Looking - Get Bounce!
I have been using Bounce Energy for almost 2 years now. I was referred by a friend and it has been the best ever since. They offer excellent prices per k/w, and even offer rewards for paying you bills on time - including gift cards and movie tickets. Of course every company has their down falls, but I haven't found one with Bounce. They are a great company! Trust me, you won't regret it!

Zero Complaints :)
I was new to the area and needed to find a reliable energy company fast. I did some searching and found bounce energy and have been with them for a year and a half now. Great company with great incentive programs. So far I've gotten $50 off 1 bill, 2 free movie tickets, and $25 toward a restaurant.

Best yet
Both my mother and I have used Bounce Energy for about 3 years. Our bills are always low. My neighbor has TXU and his bill is $50 higher then mine all the time. The rewards are awesome for paying your bill on time. I have collected over $325 in rewards over 3 years. You receive a new reward after every 6 on time payments. You choose your reward. Now after being on time for 3 straight years, I get an extra 3% of my monthly bill as well. Low cost energy with rewards. You can't go wrong with Bounce.
Thank you for the great review! We love having you as a customer and look forward to providing you with even better service in the future! All the best, - Henry

The utility company that pays you to be a customer
If you're not with Bounce energy you're definitely missing out. Service renewal is seamless, billing is transparent and straight forward, and the perks are great.Prepaid visa cards just because and now 3% off my monthly bill as a result of 36 months of on-time payments. I even got a credit on my bill one month, with no prior fanfare or noise. This is what I really like about Bounce, other companies sneakily stiff you, Bounce quietly rewards you.I do get offers from other utility companies but I really have no desire or motivation to leave Bounce simply because I have everything I need right here. Referring a friend, who signs up, gives both you and them $50 each.If you're not with Bounce I'd say try them, let me refer you:-)
We're happy you love the service and reward Nefertiiti! Looking forward to having you as a customer in the future! Sincerely, - Henry

Must Read Review!!
I have been with Bounce Energy for over 4 years now. I have been very happy with the rates and service and always found customer service helpful. In fact while they used to have long wait times they have fixed that issue. I recently called in with an issue on found on my bill and they were quick to work with me to resolve it. Prior to this I tried a number and this company has been the best and great rates.

Good prices, Great Promotions
I have no complaints with Bounce Energy. We are signed up for Auto-pay so we never miss a payment. The rates are reasonable and they offer a variety of promotional programs that can get you cash back or bill credits. We are on the cash back program and have had several $50 referral credits.
Hi, Mike! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We are pleased to hear you are enjoying the cash back program! Have an excellent day! -Paige

Great new experience
I recently moved to Texas from Florida and did not know where to start. I found out the hard way that Texas has 100 different electric companies to choose from. I did weeks of research before I landed on Bounce Energy. The customer service representative Kyle was awesome! He answered all of my questions from kWh, to base fee, to non-recurring fees etc. I think I had a full hour of questions for him. He explained the rewards program and signed me up with no problems. This will be my first month with Bounce Energy and hopefully more years with them. Gained another happy customer!

Excellent Rewards Program!
We've been with Bounce Energy for the past 2+ years and through their referral programs and cash-back rewards plan have accumulated over $600 of credits to our account. This is a significant amount of savings for us, since our typical bill is around $100 (single family ~2000 sqft home) this has covered 6 monthly payments! It's always nice to have the bill come in with ZERO dollars owed :)
We are always thrilled to hear the positive stories Mike! Thank you for taking a moment to write a review about your experience. - Eden

Long time customer
I've been a customer of Bounce for almost 5 years, through 4 moves. Their customer service is excellent. I've never had a billing issue or discrepancy. I've had a few questions that were answered promptly after contacting them.I've never had a connection or disconnection issue.I'm glad they're promoting more green energy in recent years.I wish they would revamp their website. It could use some updates and streamlining as far as user experience/interface. However, they've done a good job of making themselves accessible electronically and I appreciate that.They also have a pretty decent rewards systems - I'm receiving a $15 Starbucks gift card for paying on time 6 months in a row, which I would already do regardless.

The Best Energy Company I've Used so Far!
We had had many energy companies in the past and can honestly say Bounce is the best! The package we chose offered the smart learning Nest Thermostat which has been a great money saver! We had some trouble setting up, but they remedied our problems and credited our account for the trouble. 11 months into our relationship with Bounce, we are still thrilled!

Friend recommended switching and couldn't be happier.
We switched just under a year ago now based on a friends recommendation and have enjoyed great savings and service. We had tried a number of different companies over the years but always had issues here or there. To date, we have been very happy with Bounce. They have delivered on the pricing and plan we selected with no hassles. What few questions we have had were resolved quickly via the on site chat feature or via phone. The one thing that could be better was the hold time on the phone but chat is a great alternative.

Nice reward program
They have 4 different rewards program so when you reach the final level of your current reward program you can switch to a different rewards program. Their website is easy to use and setting up as well as canceling autopay is easy.

Great provider, excellent promotions.
We've been with bounce for over two years, and I must say that we are quite happy with our service. We have not experienced any outages and have taken advantage of many of the discount programs. Last month our entire bill was covered by referrals that we had made! Can't complain about that!

Bounce energy works great!..
I am not sure why people over this forum are complaining about their customer Case. I have been using Bounce energy for the last 2 year and I havent faced any issues with their customer service rep. Also, cost wise I am getting a very low bill compared to other providers.

Customer review
I have no complaints with Bounce Energy. I have a great experience with them and even renewed after my year was up. My bill changes , depending on the season, however, I have never rec'd an outrageous bill. The most my light bill has been is $150 range. If there has ever been a need for me to contact Bounce energy the customer service was always great. Choose Bounce energy. You wont be disappointed.

A Great Company! Use Code: 2011411
Bounce Energy has excellent customer service and great rewards! When we initially signed up we had a few issues which were quickly remedied. We chose the Express Move 24 plus plan which includes a Nest Learning Thermostat and we couldn't have chosen a better option! We received great discounts, coupons, and moving quotes. Our energy bills are very low since the Nest Thermostat was installed! The reward programs are extremely fun! For some reason my account wasn't going toward rewards, and the customer service representative was helpful, thorough, and apologetic. We highly recommend this company!

Love this company
Just joined Bounce energy and could not be happier. A friend in Dallas told me about them but I was skeptical at first until my first bill came in the mail. It was over $60 dollars less than what I was charged by TXU and that was before the rebate. The plans were easy to understand and pick and the ordering and switch from TXU was easy and straight forward. Definitely recommending to my family and friends.

Never Had A Problem With Them
Have been with them for over three years. I have had great service with them. Haven't had any issues with them and would recommend them. Every year when my plan is going to expire I always compare shop and they always beat out other energy companies. Remember you always have to read the fine print, because other companies might charge extra hidden fees. There are several reward options to choose from like airline miles, automatic payments etc as well.

Great experience and quality service!!
So far I have had an excellent experience with Bounce. There customer service has been very good and I have been very happy with their rate plans and the process to renew the plan when it expires. I found customer service very helpful in choosing the plan that was right for me. Bounce also allows you to select what rewards you want to earn so that you get what is most important to you. So glad that I switched to Bounce.

Awesome company
I researched many electric companies before I chose them. I was moving into a new house by myself so I wanted an affordable plan with a low rate. I have been with Bounce Energy for about a year and I absolutely love it! Whats cool is they email you a weekly usage report so you can compare the previous weeks usage with your current weeks usage.

6 months paying market rate
Called them today to verify my bill and was informed that I was paying market rate since I was on a month to month basis. Last March or so I got a call from Bounce that my contract was expiring and would I like to renew with a 2 year plan for long term savings. The one year plan had better rates at the time so I went with that deciding to risk the market. When I told the gentleman that today he said they had no record of that contact (as if that's a story anyone would make up) and he was sorry for the inconvenience but there was nothing that could be done. I knew my bills were higher this summer but we had record heat and I chalked up to that. I didn't even know they had a month to month plan which I would NEVER knowingly choose anyway.They've been good in every other respect but this is was their mistake and I paid for it. Going to have to go somewhere else.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review, Mike. I apologize for the frustration that this experience has caused, and want to help make things right.

They aight.
Like I was saying. Bounce Energy is just "okay". Like don't get me wrong they're not all that bad, but they aren't all that great either. Everything is well until your plan is up. I had a 12 month plan and didn't notate when my plan was up and when the year went by I received no email or call no NOTHIN! I found out my plan was up with a $180 bill!!! I live by myself!! It is a bit ridiculous if you ask me. Apparently they put me on a month to month plan without informing me. I called as soon as I realized what had happened and they did grant me a decent discount and updated my plan for me. The agent was courteous and understanding although I didn't get refunded the price different of what I had been paying for the past 3 months or so at the month to month rate. Bottom Line, if you are GREAT, FANTASTIC, AMAZING, at keeping track of your plans then go for it. But if you can avoid getting Bounce for any reason, go with someone else! I changed my plan to 6 months just to give them another shot, but I did it mainly out of convenience. There are better providers out there. And bounce is simply alright. OH, and their website is awful! Sometimes you can't even login and I rely a lot on paying my bill online, tough luck! Having said that, if you choose to go with bounce because of prices, then go with it, just be careful. Because ultimately you do what you gotta do regardless of service.

No statement received when plan was about to expire!!
I was offered a promotional cash back rebate if bill was paid on time for consecutive months but when the last month was coming up for me to receive the rebate, the company forgot to email me my statement. What a coincidence! And since I rely on the emails to stay on top of the billing, well that threw me off and it cost me the rebate. I wasn't to pleased with that! Oh well, live and learn!

Bounce Energy.
I am using Bounce Energy for 2 months now. Moving from my earlier service provider is no issue. Got my $25 discount in first bill for signing Bounce Energy without calling or following them. In second month automatic bill got processed but i received mail that issue in payment so contact Help Desk. On contacting they said payment is processed it is just technical issue from there side. So in 2 months no issue. They have now $75 discount for new customer enrolling.

This is my second time to sign up for a plan with Bounce Energy. In the past I used them for seven months on a month-to-month plan, and had few problems. Bounce Energy offered comparable rates, so I signed up with them.

Good for 1 year then raised price
They were pretty good for the past year, then my renewal came and it was .01/kwh higher, 1 cent, and did not do anything to keep me - when I called to speak to someone about my renewal, they were not very helpful and said I could see my renewal prices online and that was it. No attempt to keep me. Their rewards program was pretty good, I did get rewards of $50 for 6 mth payment on time - it was a restaurant.com gift card. If they offered to keep my rate the same for another year, not even lower it, I would have stayed. But no such luck. I changed to Brilliant and will see how that goes for another year - if I have to change every year, which seems to be the pattern for the last 2 years, I will. Gexa did the same to me a year ago. It is a shame that no company will try to keep their customers by maintaining or even lowering their rate. It costs more more to get a new customer than to keep a current one - don't they know that?

Great and steady prices
I've been with Bounce for a couple months now and I really like it. I had reliant before and hated it. After a couple months of paying on time I got $50 off using this friends code.
Use Bounce Energy promo code: 1598370 to get $50 credit
I switched to bounce energy recently. Unlike other electricity provider, you can customize your own plan and they are cheapest of the lot with many lucrative offers. Online rate is different from what you get if your order over phone. If you are ordering for the service online, save the customized Electricity Facts Lebel (EFL) and make sure you are getting the same rate by calling the customer care. Because in my case they made a mistake and I had to email them the EFL. Also no auto payment information page appeared for me and they had to set it up manually.Nevertheless I got the promise that I would get the same rate what I customized for. Although my online account shows the corrected rate, the EFL is still not corrected. Also make sure to choose Bouncy energy rewards program because you start getting them from six months onwards. If you take 3% discount offer, thats going to happens form 12 months onwards. So if you are choosing for shorter time frame, go for bounce energy rewards. Customer care responds well to your complaints but probably their higher authorities take longer time to react as it happened in my case (no correction in EFL although online account shoeing corrected rate). Another important drawback they have, is, they do not give you your weekly usage. Overall its a cheapest one and they give lots of lucrative offers.
Awesome Reward Program! Use this promo code 1594135 to get $50 bill credit!
I paid too much with other companies. I am so glad I switched over to Bounce Energy!
ITS AN OK COMPANY
IM SINGLE AND SWITCH TO THIS COMPANY... ITS OK .. NOT THE GREATEST NOT THE WORST IT JUST GETS YOU A FAIR BILL
Why do they give a customer service number that will not answer?
Unless you live to be 124 years old, you will not live long enough to have a customer service rep. Answer the phone.
Looking good so far
Signed on with Bounce based on these few things: easy to use website, multiple billing options with no extra charge for using credit card w/ auto pay, and the per kwh rate seemed competitive.
Unorganized and Misleading
Great rates. Terrible customer service. They can't keep their records straight. In addition, they have tried to wiggle out of giving the companion airfare ticket 3 times. Just FYI, I've paid early every month for the 9 months I've been a customer. I recommend Bounce if you want low rates only. I recommend another company if you want low rates and good customer service and for promises to be kept.
Bounce Has Been Great
I signed up with Bounce about 2 months ago, just before summer started to heat up. The sign up process was easy, and within a week I had received notice from Bounce that I had been effectively signed up and added to their system. Since then, my bills have cut in half, and I've gotten regular notices from them about my due bills. Paying online has been easy. So far, so good.
Bounce Energy Review
Good company. I've had them for 6 months. I liked the Fresh Start program, no deposit. My bill dropped drastically, to half, after the 3rd month of payment on time . I would recommend. They got me power when everyone wanted a huge deposit.
So Far Pretty Good
I signed up for Bounce Energy and decided to take them up on their free flight deal. I got the card as promised and went to the web site. I needed to get 2 tickets to San Diego. So I checked the prices on the web site versus Expedia. They were about $100 less. So I booked them. Everything worked like a normal ticket. The thing I'd note is that I booked the tickets 2 months in advance. So, booking early is pretty important. When I tried to book tickets a week in advance of another trip the prices were less - but the departure times and return flight times were either really late or early.
Not A Well-Organized Company
I signed up for Bounce Energy when I was looking for a company that didn't require a deposit. The plan was meant to start out at .16.9/KWH, and after 3 months of paying on time it would go down to their lowest available rate (around .10/KWH). The first month I was automatically charged the same amount twice, and I had to call to request a refund. They took about 30 minutes to answer the phone, but they were kind to me and my money was refunded in 4 days. After paying 3 months on time I did not recieve a lower rate on my bill. When I called to find out why, they said that their system had me late on one bill - which I was not - and they fixed that error for me. Unfortunately, they said I still have to pay the amount on the bill - even though it is much higher than it supposed to be - and any extra charges will carry over as credit. Overall, their price is fair, no long term contract, and quick service connection - but they need to work a little on their customer service and billing.
Freebies
I just signed up with Bounce a couple of months ago - the price seems good and I really like that I get a free magazine. Sometimes it's hard to get through to their customer service, but my question did get answered quickly and easily once I got there. I've also seen that they've made their My Account better since I signed on- it's easier now for me to pay my bill online - which is cool since they give me a $5 bill credit when I do.

Awful Choose someone else
I was a Bounce customer for over 7 years. When my contract ended they decided it would be a great time to "rape" me on the kwh rate. They increased it to over 17 per kwh. Plus kept changing my due date which had always been the 22nd and since I'm on paperless I didn't know so they would charge me a late fee for me paying a day late (which should have been my due date). Champion Energy has been great. You can even see your daily usage.
We are so sorry to have lost you as a customer! We did experience a large increase in prices this summer due to the demand on Electricity and several power plant closures. If your contract ended during this time, we can completely understand that you would be upset with the price increase. We apologize if the due date changes were frustrating, unfortunately, we are not able to adjust the due date as it's dependent upon when the Utility reads your meter. We apologize for the delay in our response to your review and understand all of your frustrations and hope that you might consider us again in the future if needed. - Kate

Great Electricity, Terrible on Promotion Accountability
I have enjoyed the pricing I have received from Bounce but I signed up for the AA miles promotions and they have only transferred my points to my AA account once....I've been with them 4 years and it has been a year since they made the first deposit in January of 2017. I have asked for them to transfer my remaining balance and every time they say oh there is a problem with the program we will have someone contact you. I think they just don't want to transfer the points. Judging from what others have said, they use the promotions to finish signing you up but then dont follow through with the promise. Beware of the promotions.
Good Morning, we are so sorry to hear about this experience! The promotions definitely shouldn't be a hassle of any kind for our customers!

You will not receive your full reward from Bounce!
I just finished my Tremendous24 program and 3% cash back. Upon renewing, Bounce was not competitive and I have switched to another provided. I was on auto pay and paid all bills on time. I received my reward for the first 12 months, but Bounce stole my last 12 months. The fine print states you have to be an active customer (meaning I must have been a customer on month 25) to get your reward. They basically stole $100 from me. An experience like this make me glad I am no longer a customer.

Buyers Beware!
I have been a Bounce Energy customer for over 6 years. When I didn't immediately renew my plan with them this year, my rate increased by 60% for the month of JULY, probably the hottest time of the year. When I called, I was on hold for over 20 minutes after pressing the "existing customer" option. When i was disconnected, I entered "new customer" option and held for only 5 minutes. Obviously Bounce is not interested in taking care of their existing customers. I will not make the mistake of using Bounce Energy again. Found another provider at half the cost.

Very unhappy with customer service
Called to have electricity started on a certain date the lady I first talked to told me it would be fine because it was before 3 pm. Called back the next day to check and this lady didn't find any documentation of that, therefore have to wait and extra 4 days before turned on.

Hope you don't have to call them
Every time I call Bounce I have to wait 20 - 25 minutes to get a customer service representative. Then, if you are not interested in renewing they have no interest in answering any questions, but only to tell you not to believe the rates their competitors are offering.

Not happy
I'm a truck driver and i'm gone for weeks at a time. When i get home i get my bills and pay them. This time i get home and i have a disconnect letter ... Ok ... I call Bounce and try to get a ONE day extension for when i get paid. They were quick to say no and it's not allowed anymore. I've been with them for over 2 years... I feel like my loyalty is not worth jack squat to them. I will be looking for a new company on payday. Thanks Bounce for understanding your customers needs and situations. Good Bye

Extra deposit being charged after 12 months of service
Bounce is a good company. (As far as my monthly bills are concerned!) However, its time to renew my plan and after a year of loyalty I was told by the rep that there's a $100 deposit required to renew my service. Never have I been with any company and they required me to pay an additional deposit. I do not believe they value their customers as they should. Don't get me wrong the $100 deposit isn't the issue. The issue is the treatment of loyalty and being committed to a company that doesn't hold the same loyalty and commitment to you! I honestly believe this is illegal and I'm looking into it. Has anyone else had this happen to then as well?

Waste of time
I was excited to get the Thrifty Saver Promotional! Shortly after ordering and before move-in, my apartment decided to switch rooms due to renovations. I called Bounce Energy to change the apartment number and was on the phone for my entire 75minute lunch break which got me three "transferred" (I was dropped each time) calls. Frustrated, I called back the next day to be dropped again and placed on two ten minute holds...only to find out that if I wanted to change my apartment number I'd have to order a new service because the one I'd signed up for was no longer available at the same price. Fed up; I ended up cancelling all services. The women I spoke to were all very nice; however, seemed very confused with every question I posed - could've told me the issue in less than ten minutes.
Billing
Just started our new relationship 10/13 with bounce energy. I must say that for two people that are away from home Monday through Saturday 160 or 171 a month. My electric bills are super high regardless of the low locked rate of 8.7 not to mention the ONCOR fees are terrible. My neighbors electric bills when compared they have a higher rate and are a family of 5 and and there is always some there using up electricity and there bills range 80 to 120 a month and no where in there bill do I see an oncor fee.
High billing every month, bad customer service
I'll not recommend Bounce:
1. High bill every month and
2. Customer service was not good
Big Bounce
Signed up for the Bounce "Teriffic 12" . It was fine for the term although all I ever got was a set of movie ticket awards. I'd hardly call the trade off a "reward" so I turned around and signed up for the airline miles but it really hasn't been building. I have more on my own from work. As the 12-month plan ended I went online to look at my options but ended up renewing to save the hastle for a few cent's more only my statements became out of control. Upon review it was discovred there was a "glitch" that locked my rate online but not in billing. I was able to prove confirmation of the rate lock and obtain a few refunds. However, I wonder how many other customers they took advantage with the same system "glitch" and if the TX Attorny General knows about these "overbilling issues" to their advantage. After the 2nd term expired I tried to reach someone for a decent rate but they didn't want to offer me a plan and no one ever returned my emails. For this, I recognize how unimportant I am to them as a customer. I'm taking my buisness somewhere else. If you try them for a short period, be sure you find a new carrier before your term ends and RUN!!. I have a small 2 bdrm apt. I rarely use my A/C or heat in Spring or Fall. The A/C is kept at 80-85 degrees or higher in summer. Nor do I cook a lot or drain the small hotwater heater. None-the-less, my already crazy electric bill was $155 last month (jJuly'13) and $314 for this one ( Aug'13). Yes, it more than doubled! There's no other way to describe the current situaton except for "highway robbery"! The statement indicates my existing rate is ~now a "Super Saver" @ 11.8 cents/k/Wh but that my "average price pd" = ~15.5 cents k/Wh. Not sure about you but that doesn't sound "super" or a "saver". It means my rates actually did nearly double. Ouch!
Management Change? Billing farce
I used to be very happy with Bounce Energy; reasonable rates and the occasional promotion BUT I suspect there was a management change late it 2011 and some financial VP has sought ways to cut costs and push up profit. Because they only accept electronic fund transfers from two banks my online checking (Ing now Capital One 360) has to send paper checks. This worked fine until early 2012 when checks that had been posted after 5 to 8 days started to take 30 days and even 45 days. I was, and still am, convinced that they cut back on accounts receivable staff or deliberately held checks to get late or disconnect fees. I always paid on-line the day I was notified a bill was available and never waited for the paper bill but when I got a warning my bill was due and unpaid had to call three times with a credit card. Then things went back to normal it seemed but it was worse. A few months later I had a disconnect warning and when I called was told they had stopping sending the COURTESY emails. Now I just send them a big chunk of money before the bill is due, after paying last month I still have an $82. Anyone who doubts this can have proof of date checks issued and date cashed, I even wrote to the TDJ who I assume don't care about consumer ripoff if it's hard to prove they hold checks.
Dennis- Apologies for your frustrations. Let me clear up a few things. 1) We haven't had any turnover in our management in that timeframe, nor do we make decisions on profitability that adversely affect customers paying their bill on-time. 2) In fact, we've added more options for customers to pay their bills including ACH and Pick Your Own Due Date. 3) Bill payment through bank checks can be very inconsistent. Your bank or financial institution can take several days to actually print and mail your check even though they've debited your account. Add to that the amount of time for US Post Office delivery, which has reduced staff and days. Our policy is that ALL checks received to our PO Box are deposited and applied to the accounts within 24 hours or the next business day if a weekend. 3) We have not stopped sending courtesy emails. If you are not receiving them anymore, please make sure to add bounceenergy.com as an approved sender in your email client. We also don't have a record of anyone with your name as a customer. We would be happy to investigate further if you provide us with the account number and the name on the account to web@bounceenergy.com.

Missing checks
I like the price of Bounce Energy but worry they have Enron like executives. I pay my bill from an on-line bank the day I am notified a payment is due and days before the mailed bill arrives. However two months in a row, and three times in total, my check has supposidly not arrived and unless I phoned in a credit card payment, I would have had late fees. As they do not accept electronic transfer from most banks, there is no proof when a payment is received. As every other payment from my bank goes through, I think they lose or delay checks to collect late fees.
Tired of holding for customer service
So tired of waiting for customer service as once they have your service they will
not allow you to talk to anyone. Currently on hold for over 22 minutes....this is
unexceptable.
No disconnect notice
Because I usually pay online and our server was
down, I tried - in vain - over and over to pay
my bill by phone. Everytime I would enter my
account number, the electronic voice would
repeat it incorrectly. I spent 15 minutes
retrying it. The next day, I again tried with
the same result, but finally thought my payment
went through. My payment was not late.
A week later, our lights suddenly went out at 7
a.m. I had absolutely no disconnect notice or
any other notice. When I tried to find out
what happened, I was informed that "Bounce
Energy is open from 8 - 5, Monday through
Friday." So much for customer service!!!
Worst Ever. 100% SCAM. Beware!!!
Realized that I had been paying for supposed disconnection orders (an additional $65 per bill) from three months prior to the billing date. I haven't had my service disconnected! It was a small line on the back of the bill that I finally noticed. Customer service = HORRIBLE! To resolve the issue took at least an on the phone and then they acted as if they were doing ME a favor to resolve their mistake!
Customer Service Representatives
Worst customer service ever. I am not sure if it is a training issue or attitude problem. Once my contract is up, we will not renew. Most of our neighbors also are under contract and sad to say we are all not renewing!
Bad customer service
Rigid and unhelpful customer service
Horrible customer service!!!!
Have had numerous negative customer service experiences and problems with my bill. They consistently mismanaged my account and when I would call to deal with the different issues, I had to explain the issues to approx. 4 people with often not receiving any resolution. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with and their operators and smug and curt. I wholeheartedly do not recommend this company.
Bounce offer no customer service
I have been a customer of Bounce for almost a year. It has been a terrible experience. Long waits on the telephone,no action available on the net.All I ever receive is an apology, the the problem remains or changes to something new.
Horrible Company To Deal With
Simply stay away from this awful company. The customer service is a nightmare, they make you wait on hold for an hour at a time, will not give a straight answer to your questions, etc etc etc. They overcharged me one month and after spending about six hours on the phone dealing with them I was told repeatedly that "The bill has been generated and I must pay It-No options".They gave me a credit the next month but refused to listen to me try to tell them THIER mistake was putting me in financial hardship.I can not stress how HORRIBLE THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS-STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
Moved here from Portland Oregon
Had alot of problems with Bounce. One is you never can get through to them on the phone, I have spent hours of cell minutes trying to straighten out problems with them. I moved out of an apartment on the 5th and notified them of the 6th to shut off the electric there and start it at the new place. On the 17th I found out they never sent it to the right dept so I reordered on the 14th.It would be on on the 17th at new place and when I was talking with them again about another issue they said no it says it won't be on until the 20th at the new location. On the 28th the landlord cut off the old electric and believe it or not mine was not on---well it was but they turned it on for the house across the street!! I had $200.00 worth of food going bad in frig. They did put it through as same day service which is suppose to be $125 charge.They technically had until midnight to turn it on so I had to run and buy a bunch of ice to keep everything good. Horrible --Simply Horrible

Prices have doubled since May 2018
I used to have the best price. Bounce did not charge the Oncor fee in addition to the KW charge. That is why they were so cheap. My contract expired and they told me the fixed fee was the same as the variable. They have DOUBLED MY BILL. My electric bill is now $360!! They will not fix it, so I am switching to direct energy today.
We apologize for the delay in our response and regret to hear about your experience with our billing. In all de-regulated energy areas in Texas, the Oncor (or TDU) charges are placed on each bill. For some companies, they place those fees within your rate plan or they could place them on a different line altogether. We apologize for any confusion or misinformation that was provided about those fees or your contract, which could have ultimately been the reason for you leaving us. We strive to ensure that we provide consistent and quality service to our customers, and apologize if that mark was not met. If you are still a customer of ours, we would like the opportunity to resolve this for you, please email us at Customercare@Bounceenergy.com so we may investigate further. Thanks so much -Kate

Bait and switch - watch your bill
No concern for customer service. Bounce energy has no problem putting you into a contract but when you ask questions about it or why your bill will exceed over a 65% increase once it expires they simply say they dont care and its not their problem.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review. We apologize for the frustration that this experience has caused, and want to help make things right! Our agents should have advised about variable pricing and how summer temperatures can not only lead to an increase in overall usage but also the impacts it has on the price of overall Electricity! If you could please send us an email at customercare@bounceenergy.com with your account information we would really like to help resolve this for you. Thanks - Kate

Full of surprises
Has been with bounce energy for over 5 years. The more you stay, the more the company will bite. What is worse, what made me leave, It is what they call " delivery and maintenance " fee! sometimes It was equal to the actual usage fee. I wonder if they were doing maintenance on my address monthly. As you sign up, be sure you ask about that.
We are so sorry to hear about this experience that you have had with our customer service agents. The Transmission and Distribution Utility, which is responsible for the maintenance and repair of any power lines or your Electricity meter, do charge customers for those things each month. Generally, it's a monthly fee plus a per usage fee. Especially this last winter, we had many customers use much more energy than they anticipated, which would lead to a higher TDU charge. If you have any questions about this, we can definitely provide more detail if you'd like to email us at Customercare@Bounceenergy.com. Thank you! - Kate

Just switched away from Bounce
I was with Bounce energy for a total of 4 years. The first year I was pleased with the service since I got a decent rate, had no billing problems, and got a weekly email with my usage and projected costs. I liked their airline rewards program, refer-a-friend program, match-the-rate discount program, and $25-$75 sign up/renewal bonus offers. My only complaint the first year was that they promised me a 1-for-1 mile per dollar airline rate with no cap deposited in my AAdvantage account every month and instead ended up only giving me 1 for 1 up to $200 per month deposited every 3 months. Overall the price was reasonable so I signed up for another year.That year I got a lot of refer-a-friend discounts so even though my rate was much worse the cost I ended up paying for electricity was very good so I renewed for a third term this time for 2 years to get a better rate. Once I was signed up long-term the problems began.First the weekly emails became less reliable and more sporadic. Then Bounce kept messing with their website and the plan I agreed to was not the plan they ended up using to bill me. I was supposed to have a base rate based on my usage and instead they charged me a flat base rate. I think that ended up averaging out to about the same rate but no matter how many times I called them to correct the discrepancies between what I ordered and what they had listed on the website and what they were billing me for they would not do anything about it. Also they did not give my any more refer-a-friend credits or the promised renewal bonus. Then they stopped depositing any airline miles in my AA account entirely. I tried calling but the representatives couldn't help me because that was "another department's responsibility". I had this issue escalated and was told a supervisor would call me back and deposit the missing miles that were accumulating. They didn't call me back the first 2 times they said they would. The third time I finally got a call they only deposited like 280 of the 1500 they owed me. When all was said and done they shorted me approximately 500 miles which I gave up fighting for but I am still upset over since their own website which I had pictures of and used to provide proof was not enough to get them to honor their promises. (I've been told they are trying to discontinue this reward program entirely in the near future since they can't get miles to give any customers not just me but I only found out after speaking directly to the rewards program director and no notice has been given to any other customers yet despite no one getting rewards this year).The worst part of the third contract and the main reason I left however was that towards the end of my contract they started moving my due date around which kept making me late paying my bill. The first 3 and a half years I never had one late payment but then 3 months in a row I missed the cutoff by something like an hour because I would make a note on my calendar to pay it 2 days earlier and the next month my due date would magically be 3 days earlier or some such bs. They added 5% to my bill every time this happened even if I was only 5 minutes past their arbitrary cutoff time. That adds up fast. At this point I was beyond ready to switch providers so I waited til my contract was supposed to be up on Dec 9 since I had originally renewed the plan on Dec 9 but instead they wouldn't let me out of the contract until Jan 9 so they effectively stole a month of choice from me. This is unacceptable. I probably should file a complaint with some authority for that but truth be told I am just so happy to be no longer with Bounce I don't want to waste my time dealing with electric nightmares anymore. Things started off well but I think my experience is not untypical. When I first signed up with Bounce they had 4 star average reviews but when I left only 2 stars. I think that is an accurate representation of how they used to be better and have since gone straight downhill. Use at your own risk.

Liars
I called to cancel.my service during the Harvey. The representative told me, my service will automatically cancelled from the apartment after I move out in October the 5. I moved into another apartment yet was still charged for the previous apartment for October, then November. I paid for the first week of November 106, but received another for November 11. 9.46. This was after I spoke again to a representative about the 106 dollars and she told.me my account will be cancelled and the 106 will be my lastbil. But how do you charge a bill for an apartment which has already been rented by another resident with a different electric plan? How can i charge for two ful month, for an apartment i moved out. For an electric service i cancelled too

Their "rewards" are a gimmick.
I enrolled in their cashback rewards program, but never received the promised rewards. They cite a clause in the fine print "You are deemed a customer in good standing as determined in our sole discretion" to say that I'm not eligible for rewards since I'm switching to another company next month, even though I met all the criteria.
They advertise that you can cash in the rewards after 12 months, which is the term of the contract, but in reality it takes anywhere from 15-17 months. The rewards don't start until 30 days after your first bill, then the rewards aren't applied until 2 billing cycles after you qualify. So you either have to let your contract lapse and pay an astronomical rate, or renew your contract with them, since they will "not apply the rewards to your final bill." This is just a scheme to lock in customers. You can't actually get the rewards until after you've renewed your contract or let it lapse and pay high rates which way out balance the rewards.
So I left and went with a reputable company with a better rate and no gimmicks to lock me in at the end of my contract.

Pretty good rates if you can tolerate unsatisfactory customer service
I will say from the beginning my situation is unusual in that my property has two services, one for the home and a separate one for guard lights. It took many months of communication with customer service, supervisors, and even a letter to the company president before they were able to (a) realize I had two services, (b) put them together in one account so I would receive only one bill. Their email notifications of bills still do not add both amounts together for the correct bill amount, and they are unable to make both service plans end on the same date, making me choose new plans twice instead of once.

Cheating their customers with some promotions
Bounce energy puts some promotions and lower bills first three months but after that they put lots of extra fees even if you have lowest rate per kwh. I also bad experience with 3 months fixed plan. I did not renew for new fixed rate and I left bounce energy. They charged me $135 early termination fee. The last thing I hate Bounce energy they charged me late fee around $3 and disconnect notice $20 even if I set up autopayment. Something was wrong their system but they charged me these extra fees. They are just finding reason to charge. This company put lots of referral and promotion awards but they took all of them in 3-4 months from you.

Horrible Customer Service
I defaulted so they say on my payment arrangement I can't be granted another arrangement for 90 days. I am a low income mother with 4 kids in Texas. The arrangement was for 2weeks out from June 19th which is July 3rd. Now they're saying the 1st which is 2 days and I've never defaulted on arrangement before. One mistake and be in the dark is what they say. I have been with them for 6 years just change my plan to a contract after 6 years and put on balance billing to help. I guess now since I'm locked in a contract they mistreat me

Failure to communicate and disconnection 2 weeks after due date
After having been a customer for over a year, and using the autopay option, I was not notified that the autopay had any issues. When I called in to Bounce, the girl could not even tell me what was wrong with the Autopay. In spite of the fact that I had also selected paperless billing, I received no email telling me that I was going to be disconnected until the minute that I was disconnected....which I should mention was 2 weeks after the due date - and the previous month was paid - not dilinquent. The customer service agent told me that they mail the disconnect notice - not email....although they do email you a notice at the same time that it is being disconnected. I received all other emails telling me that my December bill could be viewed - with no indication that there was any problem with the service. I also received a the regular usage summary. But NO disconnect notice. This is ludicrous. I should also mention that this occurred the day before the Thanksgiving break. I am told that it may be 24 hours before it is turned back on. 2 things: 1) It is ridiculous for them to have a policy to disconnect 2 weeks after due date, and 2) it is absurd that if you select paperless billing, that they do not send a disconnect notice until the exact day of disconnection - in my case it came through immediately as the power went off. It is worth it to me to pay the fee for canceling my contract and go with a different company, and continue to divert all of my contacts to alternate energy carriers.

Not honest company. Reward program is a joke. Referral program is a joke.
They are kind of terrible service company. I've been with them for 3 years. When I referred my friend, they doubled my bill than the usual charge. When I asked them why? They explained that I have a monthly plan and that is the price of the market. But my friend was the same and she got much lower rate than me. When I told them about my friend rate, they said this is your rate and you cannot compare with the others. Then I canceled my account after 2 months. Later I found they did not give me the referral. They said because I canceled my account. But I canceled the account 2 months after my friend paid her bill. Don't go with this company. They do not have good service and customer service. The people over there are so rude. They do not take care of you. They are the worst I saw in Houston so far.

Rewards plan is a joke
I am waiting on my 24 month reward which is $100, and I am on month 27! I call and am always placed on hold, which is code for, we are going to give you the run-around.I signed up for paperless billing, no $5. Did their home survey, no $5. Another reward was a gift card, did not get it, got less than the gift card amount taken off my bill. Soon I will be able to switch companies, and I am going to!!!!!!!!!!!

BOUNCE HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!
So much for JD Power & Associates surveys.
I would definitely NOT recommend Bounce. I ordered service to be turned on 3 days prior to moving into my new residence. I go to move in, auto garage door doesn't open. I walk in and find the electricity is not on! This is at 5:30 on a Friday night. I was on the phone for over an hour to get the service on. At that point I was already locked into their contract.Every time I call there is either an unacceptable length of a wait time or I get a message that Bounce is experiencing "technical difficulties" and I cannot get through to anyone. When I do actually get through I find the reps are untrained, unprofessional and cannot answer my questions. Chat reps have shut me down when when they can't answer my questions.The rewards program is a joke. a total farce. I chose a gift card once and did not receive it after 2 months. When I called about it I was told they "ran out" of gift cards. They offered an Amazon coupon through MPell Solutions which was not honored by Amazon. Their service is so bad I am reporting them to the BBB. I can't wait till my contract with them is finished.

Just don't use Bounce
I am locked in for another year, I have no choice. They tell you these stories about all the gift cards you will get for just paying your bill on time. I pay my bill on time but I will take a reward for it....except these rewards are bogus. I got the first gift card for $15 to Amazon. Tried to use it, it was used. Talked to an EXTREMELY rude representative. I finally told her just don't tell me any more crap about a gift card, just listening to her yammer gave me a headache! Just go for a company that offers low rates, don't be sucked in as I was with the offer of free stuff. Like you Mom said....nothing is free and Bounce certainly is not.

Contract
I was with another company that merged with bounce. After speaking with my previous company I was told I could maintain my current contract that had another year remaining. I recieved and email acknowledging my order with bounce which I did not initiate. I wanted to maintain my contract as I was told I could because I had locked in a good rate and we plan on moving in the near future so it just made sense. After calling to find out what my new contract was I found out my rate was increased from 7.1755 cents per kWh to 8.5. I do not think its right that I was switched over to a new company without discussing terms or that my rate was increased when I had a contract. As a consumer we are penalized for breaking or contract so why is it ok for the company to break my contract and raise my rates. I am very dissatisfied with this whole process and will be looking for a new electricity provider.

Not Recommended
Was charged a $300 early termination fee on my close-out bill, even though the contract states that there is no early termination fee if you move, and that you provide Bounce with your forwarding address. I did exactly what was asked and they still charged me.

REALLY BAD ENERGY COMPANY!! STAY AWAY!!
I am a customer since 2009 and had a good experience. The company changed, they keep changing there policy contract to get more money from you. They give a lower rate but at the end you pay more as they charge high disconnection fees for being late just hours and others. They used to give a fair 3 day late notice to charge per contract, but now, is just after being late for hours. Please check your bill carefully and will see how you finish paying much higher rates due to hidden charges. Called customer service and they told me they can "adjust" the contract as they see fit". Recommend to stay away from Bounce as they are not transparent with you.

Don't Let Them FOOL you, too!
Horrible customer service
Contract ended few days before switched to another LOWER priced company and charged $200.00
We were told too bad our responsibility to look at contract terms and small print-of course
Good customers for years but no courtesy in return:(
Go with another company

Customer Service
Contacted these people because one of my tenants were using them and the power was already in the home. I work out with them to continue the service, create me and account and just forward the bill to my home address. Easy Right......Nope. These people turn the power off right in the middle of a major cleaning job. Then they tell me to contact some other company call Oncor because I might have a "power outage" in the area. .... wrong.....They created the power outage on just my home. On top of that I had to wait for a customer service rep to get on line for over an hour. You can use this company if you like .....but I would highly not recommend it !!!

Bewarned!
I've never dealt with a company like this before. I pay all my bills electronically & submit payment a few days before due date. Bounce showed they constantly got payments late (no one else did). They suggested I submit payment weeks earlier than due date & I suggested they change their due date. They cut power for a $44.00, 1 mouth payment because they hadn't received it so I had to pay again just to get power turned back on. They charged me $25.00 for cutting it off, $25 to turn it on! Tried to get breakdown of costs since I'd paid 1 bill, 2 times. Was on hold for over 2 hrs, no one ever picked up. Sent 3 emails with no replies. But I DID get a letter telling me it was time to renew my contract. At least they have a sense of humor. Can't get away from them fast enough.

Customer service experience
I have a previous address and two current addresses with Bounce. You can get on line fast to place a service order but I just waited over 32 minutes between 11 am and noon and was still on hold. Tried the Chat and no one "was there", I should "try later". They also put the burden on the customer to apply for their rewards, and in my experience, their agent does not handle the reward requests. I would love to have a manager call me. I am a management consultant/trainer. My professional assessment - this is not the way to do it.

New title: Customer "Fighter" People
Bounce Energy used Switch and Bait tactics to sign me up for service at a low rate, and then changed the rate up without my knowledge by sending an email that "forced" me to make the choice and gave no options.Their customer service may be better skilled for the army, than for a client service environment. The moment you connect with them they go on the attack. Even their managers, when I escalate to them, they hung up the phone in my face.I already cancelled my service with them, even if they are threatening a penalty, but I would like others to know so maybe they are spared this stress.

Bounce Energy plants reviews from makebelieve consumers
I believe that Bounce Energy is planting reviews from fictitious customers, something most other companies are not doing. The reviews that specify a promo code and are extremely glowing are almost certainly being planted. Other sources have complained about Bounce Energy's failure to honor special deals. My bad experience deals with something else. Misleading advertising which some other companies are also guilty of. There was a huge problem with Bounce Energy failing to send paperwork that contained necessary disclosures. Bounce Energy refused to honor an email that specifically said I had 3 business days from the date of receiving documents in the mail to cancel without penalty. I saw another website elsewhere that was so heavily stacked with glowing reviews for Bounce Energy, I knew it either had to be cherrypicked or planted and bogus.

Customer Service sucks
Customer Service sucks. When I called to the customer service, the agent on the other side was not even capable of looking up my account, and asked me" are you sure you are with Bounce Energy"? When I changed my address, she kept taking the wrong house number, and was not even bothered to check the house number with me. When I asked her to repeat the number to me, she said "Oh I already submitted it", and it turned out that she had the wrong house number. Save yourself, and don't choose Bounce Energy.

Awful Customer Service
After waiting an initial 10 minutes to speak to a rep., I was put on hold for 10+ minutes of silence. When I questioned what the rep was telling me, I was put on hold again, this time with music, for 30+ minutes without ever hearing anything other than an automated recording and music. This is currently happen on Tuesday March 10, 2015 and as of 4:50 PM and am still waiting for someone to address my concern.

Beware! True review not free advertisement by them...
Please don't sign up with them! They are unethical liars and thiefs! This company should be shit down by the government!!! I will report to the BBB!!!
Anyways after being a loyal customer- paying close to 300 a month for 18 month the bill more than doubled- to $626- for a 2 bedroom, one bathroom with 2 people?!?
When I called to tell them something was wrong they tried to make it look like it was normal to have that big of an electricity bill and even I stayed calm (because I wont pay- luckily there wasnt enough money in my account when they tried to take (steal) it so will change my debit card). they got very defensive which made it even more clear that something was wrong with that price. No explanation nothing just someone that seemed slow and detached...
Well I switched to a different company and now pay $150 a month. They billed me for the half of the month until I switched another $450 I am refusing to pay!
It's absolutely rediclueles- the 2 largest electricity bills I received my whole life in the winter 2 month in a row... I guess they jacked up the rates. They need to because their customers are running away fast. I noticed that most of the reviews are negative besides the one with the promo code. Do I need to say more?!

Promise the Rewards BUT you never get them
On 1/7/2015, I was told I had made the 6 payments on time and should receive my $ 50.00 "GIFT CARD WITHIN 4-6 WEEKS". On 2/12, spoke with Victoria, she said "You should receive GIFT CARD ANY DAY NOW". 2/23/15, called and customer service said "NO YOU DON'T RECEIVE AN ACTUAL GIFT CARD. WE WILL SEND YOU THE CODE FOR A FREE $ 50.00 GIFT CARD". I asked to speak to a supervisor, she said there is not one and "YOU DON'T NEED TO TALK TO ANYONE BUT ME". So, On 1/7/15-I had made the 6 payments on time & was told 4-6 weeks for $ 50.00 gift card. GUESS WHAT? 3/2/15-NO GIFT CARD, NO CODE FOR A GIFT CARD. Bounce provides pretty good service but when you are promised a reward for paying on time, it is ALL A LIE. The Customer Service is very very rude and you can expect to get hung on many times. RELIANT IS MUCH MORE DEPENDABLE AND SAME RATE. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANYONE EXCEPT FOR "BOUNCE ENERGY".

Bonus not received
I signed up with Bounce Energy a year ago and agreed to have my monthly billing charged to my credit card. Therefore all timely payments. The plan included receiving a $50 restaurant gift card after 6 months of timely payments and a $50 Visa gift card after 12 months. They will not contact you when you have earned these rewards. I forgot about the $50 restaurant earned last August and contacted them three weeks ago and I was told it would take three weeks beforing hearing from them in reference to this award. The monthly base pay of $9.95 is too high and for that reason I found another energy company that has no monthly base pay charges and lower rates. I switched to this company earlier this month. I called Bounce Energy for my $50 Visa card reward and they told me because I switched to another company they would not issue it. This was not part of the agreement of signing up. I would never give them my business again and I don't recommend this company for energy.

STAY AWAY with Bounce Energy !!!!!!!
We signed up with Bounce for 6.9 cents per KWH. But, our monthly bills have been high compared to our old service provider Reliant Energy. Hidden fees were not told up front at all. We are actually paying 13 cents per KWH instead of 6.9 cents. Account manger never returned our call in this matter. For now, we are stucked until the end of our contract :(

Customer service
Customer service is terrible, when we sold our house in dallas . Bounce sent the final bill to an unknown address,so I never received the bill. So they sent it off to a collection agency without any follow up. I have paid the bill and found out that they took the info down wrong, stating that it was their fault,but they don't care and will not send me a letter stating that. They won't return calls, they lie and say they can not send out a letter like that.!!!!! They just lie and say that has to come from corp but wont connect me to anyone at corp. They also had two other ways to get hold of me after they got the bill returned for wrong address, phone and email are both correct. But they say that after you close your account they don't use those anymore.I would call that BS,use another company.

Poor Customer Service
I originally signed up for Bounce under a 6 moth plan, so I could test the waters and see how I felt about them. They offered a pretty low rate, so I decided to go for it. 6 months came and went, and my contract period with them expired. I had not experienced any problems with them, so I decided to renew, but my rates were *significantly* higher for the renewal. I decided to sign up for a year contract anyway, since I was already established with them.My biggest complaint with Bounce is that they have very poor customer support. They are a "take or leave it" sort of operation, similar to the utility providers with which we have no other option to use, like the water company. Bounce does not really focus on customer service at all. Electricity providers have competition here in Texas due to deregulation of the electric market, and there are quite a few energy providers one can choose from. You would think Bounce would offer more support for their customers, since we can choose our own provider, but Bounce does no such thing. They do not offer payment extensions, live chat support, or a decent average billing program. Their website is clunky, and archaic. Do not bother e-mailing them for support, because they will never respond to you. I have sent countless emails to which I have never received one reply. Once my year with Bounce is up, I am done with their company forever.

Stealing People's money
I got this company because I was told by my apartment complex to get them. I was 19 when I moved into my apartments and got this energy company. I am YOUNG, but NOT STUPID. After being with this company for a few months, I received a notice from my bank that I had $100 in NSF fees. I knew I should have plenty money in my account. When I contacted my bank they said that Bounce Energy took a payment twice, which cause several other transactions to be "insufficient Funds". I told my bank they should not have done that. I called Bounce and they didn't even apologize. All they did was ask if I wanted to leave it on there as a credit. I told them no because they never should have taken the payment twice. They said they would credit my account. Fortunately for them, my bank had already told me that they saw where this was the energy company's fault and refunded the NSF fees back to my account. They are SO lucky that I have an understanding bank.

Awesome
I love Bounce Energy. I have had so many wonderful experiences with them. My bill has always been reasonable but I hate that they switched us over to Direct Energy. Since then, my bill has been outrageous like over $300. I never received a $300 when I was with Bounce Energy. Please come back Bounce Energy.
Awesome company
Always a great experience all the way around

Great pricing..
Overall excellent service. Only issue is seeing the bill online, can never open the details only the current amount. I like the weekly updates. Other than that no problem.
Bounce is Terrific!
Best rates, great promotions, fair & honest & reliable. After three years, I have nothing negative to say.
Best Electric Company in Texas!
I've used multiple companies over the years and my experience with Bounce Energy has been nothing but exceptional. I've never had any issues with my service or billing and their customer service is always excellent! We are customers for life!
Awful Choose someone else
I was a Bounce customer for over 7 years. When my contract ended they decided it would be a great time to "rape" me on the kwh rate. They increased it to over 17 per kwh. Plus kept changing my due date which had always been the 22nd and since I'm on paperless I didn't know so they would charge me a late fee for me paying a day late (which should have been my due date). Champion Energy has been great. You can even see your daily usage.
We are so sorry to have lost you as a customer! We did experience a large increase in prices this summer due to the demand on Electricity and several power plant closures. If your contract ended during this time, we can completely understand that you would be upset with the price increase. We apologize if the due date changes were frustrating, unfortunately, we are not able to adjust the due date as it's dependent upon when the Utility reads your meter. We apologize for the delay in our response to your review and understand all of your frustrations and hope that you might consider us again in the future if needed. - Kate

Prices have doubled since May 2018
I used to have the best price. Bounce did not charge the Oncor fee in addition to the KW charge. That is why they were so cheap. My contract expired and they told me the fixed fee was the same as the variable. They have DOUBLED MY BILL. My electric bill is now $360!! They will not fix it, so I am switching to direct energy today.
We apologize for the delay in our response and regret to hear about your experience with our billing. In all de-regulated energy areas in Texas, the Oncor (or TDU) charges are placed on each bill. For some companies, they place those fees within your rate plan or they could place them on a different line altogether. We apologize for any confusion or misinformation that was provided about those fees or your contract, which could have ultimately been the reason for you leaving us. We strive to ensure that we provide consistent and quality service to our customers, and apologize if that mark was not met. If you are still a customer of ours, we would like the opportunity to resolve this for you, please email us at Customercare@Bounceenergy.com so we may investigate further. Thanks so much -Kate

Bait and switch - watch your bill
No concern for customer service. Bounce energy has no problem putting you into a contract but when you ask questions about it or why your bill will exceed over a 65% increase once it expires they simply say they dont care and its not their problem.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review. We apologize for the frustration that this experience has caused, and want to help make things right! Our agents should have advised about variable pricing and how summer temperatures can not only lead to an increase in overall usage but also the impacts it has on the price of overall Electricity! If you could please send us an email at customercare@bounceenergy.com with your account information we would really like to help resolve this for you. Thanks - Kate

Full of surprises
Has been with bounce energy for over 5 years. The more you stay, the more the company will bite. What is worse, what made me leave, It is what they call " delivery and maintenance " fee! sometimes It was equal to the actual usage fee. I wonder if they were doing maintenance on my address monthly. As you sign up, be sure you ask about that.
We are so sorry to hear about this experience that you have had with our customer service agents. The Transmission and Distribution Utility, which is responsible for the maintenance and repair of any power lines or your Electricity meter, do charge customers for those things each month. Generally, it's a monthly fee plus a per usage fee. Especially this last winter, we had many customers use much more energy than they anticipated, which would lead to a higher TDU charge. If you have any questions about this, we can definitely provide more detail if you'd like to email us at Customercare@Bounceenergy.com. Thank you! - Kate

Great Electricity, Terrible on Promotion Accountability
I have enjoyed the pricing I have received from Bounce but I signed up for the AA miles promotions and they have only transferred my points to my AA account once....I've been with them 4 years and it has been a year since they made the first deposit in January of 2017. I have asked for them to transfer my remaining balance and every time they say oh there is a problem with the program we will have someone contact you. I think they just don't want to transfer the points. Judging from what others have said, they use the promotions to finish signing you up but then dont follow through with the promise. Beware of the promotions.
Good Morning, we are so sorry to hear about this experience! The promotions definitely shouldn't be a hassle of any kind for our customers! We understand that it has been quite a while since you have sent this review, but if you are still experiencing issues, please send us an email to Customercare@Bounceenergy.com with your account information so we can look into this further for you!

Great Electricity Provider
Its very good electric company and I have been using since 3 years without any problem. After switching to this provider my bill almost reduced to half. Also they have very good reward program and gives you cash back of $50 , $25 etc on time to time like for 3 or 6 months or if autopay chosen. Their rates are decent and didn't get any problems so far and it is very easy to switch to Bounce Energy.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We truly apologize it has taken us this long to respond to it, but we honestly appreciate you taking the time to tell others about your wonderful experience. We hope you have a great week! Thanks - Kate

Just switched away from Bounce
I was with Bounce energy for a total of 4 years. The first year I was pleased with the service since I got a decent rate, had no billing problems, and got a weekly email with my usage and projected costs. I liked their airline rewards program, refer-a-friend program, match-the-rate discount program, and $25-$75 sign up/renewal bonus offers. My only complaint the first year was that they promised me a 1-for-1 mile per dollar airline rate with no cap deposited in my AAdvantage account every month and instead ended up only giving me 1 for 1 up to $200 per month deposited every 3 months. Overall the price was reasonable so I signed up for another year.That year I got a lot of refer-a-friend discounts so even though my rate was much worse the cost I ended up paying for electricity was very good so I renewed for a third term this time for 2 years to get a better rate. Once I was signed up long-term the problems began.First the weekly emails became less reliable and more sporadic. Then Bounce kept messing with their website and the plan I agreed to was not the plan they ended up using to bill me. I was supposed to have a base rate based on my usage and instead they charged me a flat base rate. I think that ended up averaging out to about the same rate but no matter how many times I called them to correct the discrepancies between what I ordered and what they had listed on the website and what they were billing me for they would not do anything about it. Also they did not give my any more refer-a-friend credits or the promised renewal bonus. Then they stopped depositing any airline miles in my AA account entirely. I tried calling but the representatives couldn't help me because that was "another department's responsibility". I had this issue escalated and was told a supervisor would call me back and deposit the missing miles that were accumulating. They didn't call me back the first 2 times they said they would. The third time I finally got a call they only deposited like 280 of the 1500 they owed me. When all was said and done they shorted me approximately 500 miles which I gave up fighting for but I am still upset over since their own website which I had pictures of and used to provide proof was not enough to get them to honor their promises. (I've been told they are trying to discontinue this reward program entirely in the near future since they can't get miles to give any customers not just me but I only found out after speaking directly to the rewards program director and no notice has been given to any other customers yet despite no one getting rewards this year).The worst part of the third contract and the main reason I left however was that towards the end of my contract they started moving my due date around which kept making me late paying my bill. The first 3 and a half years I never had one late payment but then 3 months in a row I missed the cutoff by something like an hour because I would make a note on my calendar to pay it 2 days earlier and the next month my due date would magically be 3 days earlier or some such bs. They added 5% to my bill every time this happened even if I was only 5 minutes past their arbitrary cutoff time. That adds up fast. At this point I was beyond ready to switch providers so I waited til my contract was supposed to be up on Dec 9 since I had originally renewed the plan on Dec 9 but instead they wouldn't let me out of the contract until Jan 9 so they effectively stole a month of choice from me. This is unacceptable. I probably should file a complaint with some authority for that but truth be told I am just so happy to be no longer with Bounce I don't want to waste my time dealing with electric nightmares anymore. Things started off well but I think my experience is not untypical. When I first signed up with Bounce they had 4 star average reviews but when I left only 2 stars. I think that is an accurate representation of how they used to be better and have since gone straight downhill. Use at your own risk.
We regret to hear of this experience you had. We would like the opportunity to review the concerns you have mentioned further. Please email your account details to us at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com along with a copy of this review so we can address these concerns with you. Thank you, - Cole

Best provider for electricity in texas
One of the best electricity provider in texas. They have good plans whhich saves money. Excellent website to understand your bill. Most of all have superb rewards program.
Liars
I called to cancel.my service during the Harvey. The representative told me, my service will automatically cancelled from the apartment after I move out in October the 5. I moved into another apartment yet was still charged for the previous apartment for October, then November. I paid for the first week of November 106, but received another for November 11. 9.46. This was after I spoke again to a representative about the 106 dollars and she told.me my account will be cancelled and the 106 will be my lastbil. But how do you charge a bill for an apartment which has already been rented by another resident with a different electric plan? How can i charge for two ful month, for an apartment i moved out. For an electric service i cancelled too
We sincerely apologize for the experience you have had. We would like to speak to you further regarding this. Please send us your account number, full address and phone number to customercare@bounceenergy.com so we can take a look into this. Thank you, - Jane

Be aware with their cash back scam
I signed up two years service. after 2 year I renew and they just post 0$/kwh. I switched to another company and asked them for the cash back reward. They said they can not reward because I am no longer their customer. I wish I can post the chat I talked with them. Be aware this company people. read their contract carefully .

Won't send a Bill - Just Disconnect Notices - So Frustrating!
We have have been using Bounce Energy for about a year now and NOT ONCE have we received a Bill(Paper or Email). However, we will receive a disconnect notice via US Postal and we will receive a Survey" email from them. We have made multiple calls to them trying to resolve this issue - Incredibly Frustrating!
Joe, sorry for the frustration. We would like to review this further. Please email us your account number, address and phone along with a brief description of this concern to CustomerCare@Bounceenergy.com. We look forward to hearing from you. All the best, - Jane

6 months paying market rate
Called them today to verify my bill and was informed that I was paying market rate since I was on a month to month basis. Last March or so I got a call from Bounce that my contract was expiring and would I like to renew with a 2 year plan for long term savings. The one year plan had better rates at the time so I went with that deciding to risk the market. When I told the gentleman that today he said they had no record of that contact (as if that's a story anyone would make up) and he was sorry for the inconvenience but there was nothing that could be done. I knew my bills were higher this summer but we had record heat and I chalked up to that. I didn't even know they had a month to month plan which I would NEVER knowingly choose anyway.They've been good in every other respect but this is was their mistake and I paid for it. Going to have to go somewhere else.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review, Mike. I apologize for the frustration that this experience has caused, and want to help make things right. Please email us at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com with your full name, service address, account number, email and phone number so that we assist you further. Have a great weekend! ~Deborah

Their "rewards" are a gimmick.
I enrolled in their cashback rewards program, but never received the promised rewards. They cite a clause in the fine print "You are deemed a customer in good standing as determined in our sole discretion" to say that I'm not eligible for rewards since I'm switching to another company next month, even though I met all the criteria.
They advertise that you can cash in the rewards after 12 months, which is the term of the contract, but in reality it takes anywhere from 15-17 months. The rewards don't start until 30 days after your first bill, then the rewards aren't applied until 2 billing cycles after you qualify. So you either have to let your contract lapse and pay an astronomical rate, or renew your contract with them, since they will "not apply the rewards to your final bill." This is just a scheme to lock in customers. You can't actually get the rewards until after you've renewed your contract or let it lapse and pay high rates which way out balance the rewards.
So I left and went with a reputable company with a better rate and no gimmicks to lock me in at the end of my contract.

Long time Bounce Energy Customer
I have been a customer for 5 years but not any more. They quietly increased my bills and never notified me about my current plan expiring. They used to send letters before but not any more. Something has changed with this company and I don,t like it at all, stay away.
Hi Khan, Thank you for contacting us. We would like to investigate your concerns regarding the rate plan increase and your bills. If you would like to email us your account number and address at customercare@bounceenergy.com, we will then work toward resolving the matter.Sincerely, - Henry

Pretty good rates if you can tolerate unsatisfactory customer service
I will say from the beginning my situation is unusual in that my property has two services, one for the home and a separate one for guard lights. It took many months of communication with customer service, supervisors, and even a letter to the company president before they were able to (a) realize I had two services, (b) put them together in one account so I would receive only one bill. Their email notifications of bills still do not add both amounts together for the correct bill amount, and they are unable to make both service plans end on the same date, making me choose new plans twice instead of once.
Hi Ernest, Thank you for the feedback. It definitely should not take months of time to fix a multi-premise inquiry. We sincerely apologize for the experience, and we want to make sure that all your concerns are addressed.

Stop Looking - Get Bounce!
I have been using Bounce Energy for almost 2 years now. I was referred by a friend and it has been the best ever since. They offer excellent prices per k/w, and even offer rewards for paying you bills on time - including gift cards and movie tickets. Of course every company has their down falls, but I haven't found one with Bounce. They are a great company! Trust me, you won't regret it!

I changed to Bounce Energy and I am not regretting it.
I had been another company for 1.5 years but their prices just kept rising every time I renovated the contract.
The reward programs with Bounce Energy are pretty cool and there is always an incentive to have the customers happy and saving money!

Cheating their customers with some promotions
Bounce energy puts some promotions and lower bills first three months but after that they put lots of extra fees even if you have lowest rate per kwh. I also bad experience with 3 months fixed plan. I did not renew for new fixed rate and I left bounce energy. They charged me $135 early termination fee. The last thing I hate Bounce energy they charged me late fee around $3 and disconnect notice $20 even if I set up autopayment. Something was wrong their system but they charged me these extra fees. They are just finding reason to charge. This company put lots of referral and promotion awards but they took all of them in 3-4 months from you.

Horrible Customer Service
I defaulted so they say on my payment arrangement I can't be granted another arrangement for 90 days. I am a low income mother with 4 kids in Texas. The arrangement was for 2weeks out from June 19th which is July 3rd. Now they're saying the 1st which is 2 days and I've never defaulted on arrangement before. One mistake and be in the dark is what they say. I have been with them for 6 years just change my plan to a contract after 6 years and put on balance billing to help. I guess now since I'm locked in a contract they mistreat me

Zero Complaints :)
I was new to the area and needed to find a reliable energy company fast. I did some searching and found bounce energy and have been with them for a year and a half now. Great company with great incentive programs. So far I've gotten $50 off 1 bill, 2 free movie tickets, and $25 toward a restaurant.

I have been with Bounce Energy for two years and I have nothing but great things to say about them. Prices are low, they reward fun gift cards for on-time payments, and have great customer service. I sadly will be leaving Bounce Energy due to my apartments being bought out, and they were kind enough to wave my cancellation fee. I plan to be back!

Best Electricity Provider in TX
I have been using since around 2 years and no problems with bills and payments, quick customer service, low rates. They have very excellent Rewards and promotions programs for every three or six months like $50 credit to your account, $50 Restaurant gift card for on-time payment, $15 Starbucks Gift card and One month free electricity.
We're happy you've chosen us for the last two years Rahil! Thank you for the kind words. We look forward to keeping you as a customer in the future. Sincerely, - Henry

Best yet
Both my mother and I have used Bounce Energy for about 3 years. Our bills are always low. My neighbor has TXU and his bill is $50 higher then mine all the time. The rewards are awesome for paying your bill on time. I have collected over $325 in rewards over 3 years. You receive a new reward after every 6 on time payments. You choose your reward. Now after being on time for 3 straight years, I get an extra 3% of my monthly bill as well. Low cost energy with rewards. You can't go wrong with Bounce.
Thank you for the great review! We love having you as a customer and look forward to providing you with even better service in the future! All the best, - Henry

You will not receive your full reward from Bounce!
I just finished my Tremendous24 program and 3% cash back. Upon renewing, Bounce was not competitive and I have switched to another provided. I was on auto pay and paid all bills on time. I received my reward for the first 12 months, but Bounce stole my last 12 months. The fine print states you have to be an active customer (meaning I must have been a customer on month 25) to get your reward. They basically stole $100 from me. An experience like this make me glad I am no longer a customer.

The utility company that pays you to be a customer
If you're not with Bounce energy you're definitely missing out. Service renewal is seamless, billing is transparent and straight forward, and the perks are great.Prepaid visa cards just because and now 3% off my monthly bill as a result of 36 months of on-time payments. I even got a credit on my bill one month, with no prior fanfare or noise. This is what I really like about Bounce, other companies sneakily stiff you, Bounce quietly rewards you.I do get offers from other utility companies but I really have no desire or motivation to leave Bounce simply because I have everything I need right here. Referring a friend, who signs up, gives both you and them $50 each.If you're not with Bounce I'd say try them, let me refer you:-)

Stop looking... Bounce is the best!
I switched electricity providers every 6 months to a year until I switched to Bounce over two years ago. I have not been able to come up with a good reason to switch to another provider since then. Bounce has an awesome rewards program (no other provider I had ever used offered one) and their rates are competitive. Twice they have given me a 'match the rate' discount to keep me as a customer. The only times I have needed to contact them was before contract renewal times and their customer service was great. I am still the type of person who will check and make sure I am getting a good deal come my next renewal time period, but I couldn't be happier with Bounce right now. If you switch, I think you'll be happy! Thank you and good luck!
Thank you for the wonderful review Karen! We're so happy you love the service. Sincerely, - Henry

Excellent Electricity Company
Its very good electric company and I have been using since 2 years without any problem. After switching to this provider my bill almost reduced to half. Also they have very good rewardprogram and gives you cash back of $75 , $25 etc on time to time like for 3 or 6 months or if autopay chosen. Their rates are decent and didn't get any problems so far and it is very easy

In fact while they used to have long wait times they have fixed that issue. I recently called in with an issue on found on my bill and they were quick to work with me to resolve it. Prior to this I tried a number and this company has been the best and great rates.

Rewarded for Just Paying Your Bill On Time
I've been with Bounce for over two years now and have had no problems. They literally reward you just for paying your bill on time. I'm on AutoPay and I get rewards every few months for doing essentially nothing. Coming up on a free month of electricity in a few months! Also, they give credits for referrals.

You won't regret switching to Bounce!
I switched electric companies every 6 months to a year until I switched to Bounce 2 years ago. I just renewed today for another year. I'm not sure if I will ever switch companies again... and that is a relief! Their customer service is great although I have not had to call them for much over the last two years. They offered me a 'beat the competitor's discount' to keep me as a customer as well as a bill credit. When you see other much lower rates - make sure you read the fine print as there is usually a catch. I have not had any problems with Bounce Energy over the last two years and highly recommend them! What other company out there offers a rewards program that pays YOU back??? None that I've found. Good luck with your search, but if I were you I'd stop here!

Failure to communicate and disconnection 2 weeks after due date
After having been a customer for over a year, and using the autopay option, I was not notified that the autopay had any issues. When I called in to Bounce, the girl could not even tell me what was wrong with the Autopay. In spite of the fact that I had also selected paperless billing, I received no email telling me that I was going to be disconnected until the minute that I was disconnected....which I should mention was 2 weeks after the due date - and the previous month was paid - not dilinquent. The customer service agent told me that they mail the disconnect notice - not email....although they do email you a notice at the same time that it is being disconnected. I received all other emails telling me that my December bill could be viewed - with no indication that there was any problem with the service. I also received a the regular usage summary. But NO disconnect notice. This is ludicrous. I should also mention that this occurred the day before the Thanksgiving break. I am told that it may be 24 hours before it is turned back on. 2 things: 1) It is ridiculous for them to have a policy to disconnect 2 weeks after due date, and 2) it is absurd that if you select paperless billing, that they do not send a disconnect notice until the exact day of disconnection - in my case it came through immediately as the power went off. It is worth it to me to pay the fee for canceling my contract and go with a different company, and continue to divert all of my contacts to alternate energy carriers.

They aight.
Like I was saying. Bounce Energy is just "okay". Like don't get me wrong they're not all that bad, but they aren't all that great either. Everything is well until your plan is up. I had a 12 month plan and didn't notate when my plan was up and when the year went by I received no email or call no NOTHIN! I found out my plan was up with a $180 bill!!! I live by myself!! It is a bit ridiculous if you ask me. Apparently they put me on a month to month plan without informing me. I called as soon as I realized what had happened and they did grant me a decent discount and updated my plan for me. The agent was courteous and understanding although I didn't get refunded the price different of what I had been paying for the past 3 months or so at the month to month rate. Bottom Line, if you are GREAT, FANTASTIC, AMAZING, at keeping track of your plans then go for it. But if you can avoid getting Bounce for any reason, go with someone else! I changed my plan to 6 months just to give them another shot, but I did it mainly out of convenience. There are better providers out there. And bounce is simply alright. OH, and their website is awful! Sometimes you can't even login and I rely a lot on paying my bill online, tough luck! Having said that, if you choose to go with bounce because of prices, then go with it, just be careful. Because ultimately you do what you gotta do regardless of service.

Great new experience
I recently moved to Texas from Florida and did not know where to start. I found out the hard way that Texas has 100 different electric companies to choose from. I did weeks of research before I landed on Bounce Energy. The customer service representative Kyle was awesome! He answered all of my questions from kWh, to base fee, to non-recurring fees etc. I think I had a full hour of questions for him. He explained the rewards program and signed me up with no problems. This will be my first month with Bounce Energy and hopefully more years with them. Gained another happy customer!

Not honest company. Reward program is a joke. Referral program is a joke.
They are kind of terrible service company. I've been with them for 3 years. When I referred my friend, they doubled my bill than the usual charge. When I asked them why? They explained that I have a monthly plan and that is the price of the market. But my friend was the same and she got much lower rate than me. When I told them about my friend rate, they said this is your rate and you cannot compare with the others. Then I canceled my account after 2 months. Later I found they did not give me the referral. They said because I canceled my account. But I canceled the account 2 months after my friend paid her bill. Don't go with this company. They do not have good service and customer service. The people over there are so rude. They do not take care of you. They are the worst I saw in Houston so far.

I am waiting on my 24 month reward which is $100, and I am on month 27! I call and am always placed on hold, which is code for, we are going to give you the run-around.I signed up for paperless billing, no $5. Did their home survey, no $5. Another reward was a gift card, did not get it, got less than the gift card amount taken off my bill. Soon I will be able to switch companies, and I am going to!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent Rewards Program!
We've been with Bounce Energy for the past 2+ years and through their referral programs and cash-back rewards plan have accumulated over $600 of credits to our account. This is a significant amount of savings for us, since our typical bill is around $100 (single family ~2000 sqft home) this has covered 6 monthly payments!

I've been with them for over 3 years, and don't plan on switching companies any time soon. I personally can't stand the heat and at my house the AC is on 24 hours a day, but my bill would never go higher than about $60 for my 2 bedroom apartment. I've been with them for over 3 years, and i've never had any issues or complaints. As far as for the rewards, I've ALWAYS received my reward (my favorite being my chickfila gift card).
Thank you for the great review Leeya! Please let us know if we may assist you with any questions in the future! You may email us at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com for assistance. -Elle

No statement received when plan was about to expire!!
I was offered a promotional cash back rebate if bill was paid on time for consecutive months but when the last month was coming up for me to receive the rebate, the company forgot to email me my statement. What a coincidence! And since I rely on the emails to stay on top of the billing, well that threw me off and it cost me the rebate. I wasn't to pleased with that! Oh well, live and learn!

BOUNCE ENERGY UNFAIR
I am not under a plan. Bounce Energy jacked up my rate from 8 c/kwh to 13.1c/kwh calling it market increase when the energy prices are so low. USERS BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY
Hi Warsi. We sincerely apologize for any miscommunication regarding your rate, as we desire to be as transparent with customers regarding all aspects of their bill. If you would like we may answer any questions you may have about current rate plans; if you could please send your questions to dedigitalcare@directenergy.com, we will assist you further.

Buyers Beware!
I have been a Bounce Energy customer for over 6 years. When I didn't immediately renew my plan with them this year, my rate increased by 60% for the month of JULY, probably the hottest time of the year. When I called, I was on hold for over 20 minutes after pressing the "existing customer" option. When i was disconnected, I entered "new customer" option and held for only 5 minutes. Obviously Bounce is not interested in taking care of their existing customers. I will not make the mistake of using Bounce Energy again. Found another provider at half the cost.
Hi R Castillo. We apologize for your experience as we want to take care of not only new customers but also those who have been faithful customers such as yourself. If there is anything we can help with or any questions we can answer, please send us your inquiry and account information to dedigitalcare@directenergy.com, and we will happily assist you.

Beware of Company's lack of communication when contract is about to expire!!!
I was with this company 5 years and my contract came up for renewal two months ago. Did they notify me of that...NO!!! But yet they charged me 2xs the rate I originally had for 2 years. I was entitled for a $100 credit or 1 month free electricity if I stayed with them for 2 years. Did I get it? No, I had to call and ask for my $ which they say it will be mailed 6 to 8 weeks...really!!! If this is how they thank you and treat you for being a loyal customer for 5 years I rather sign up for service with another company. Beware!!!!

Finally a company I plan to stay with!
I moved to Texas 5 years ago and switched electric companies every 6 - 12 months (from Startex to Frontier to Champion) until I switched to Bounce in January 2015. I expected to change again in January 2016 but I have been so happy with their service and with my bills... that I think I am going to stick with them for a while. Their rewards program is awesome! Even if you find a rate that is a little lower, Bounce's rewards will surely make up the difference if you pay on time. Customer service was great for the very few times I've had to call.
Hi Karen! Thank you for the wonderful review! Please let us know if you have any questions or suggestions on how we may improve your experience! We're always taking suggestions via email at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com. All the best, - Henry

Long time customer
I've been a customer of Bounce for almost 5 years, through 4 moves. Their customer service is excellent. I've never had a billing issue or discrepancy. I've had a few questions that were answered promptly after contacting them.I've never had a connection or disconnection issue.I'm glad they're promoting more green energy in recent years.I wish they would revamp their website. It could use some updates and streamlining as far as user experience/interface. However, they've done a good job of making themselves accessible electronically and I appreciate that.They also have a pretty decent rewards systems - I'm receiving a $15 Starbucks gift card for paying on time 6 months in a row, which I would already do regardless.
Hi Katt! Thank you for the review and feedback! We are always trying to improve the customer experience, especially within the digital realm, so we sincerely appreciate your input! If you have any further questions or suggestions please email at dedigitalcare@directenergy.com! Sincerely, - Henry

The Best Energy Company I've Used so Far!
We had had many energy companies in the past and can honestly say Bounce is the best! The package we chose offered the smart learning Nest Thermostat which has been a great money saver! We had some trouble setting up, but they remedied our problems and credited our account for the trouble. 11 months into our relationship with Bounce, we are still thrilled!

Friend recommended switching and couldn't be happier.
We switched just under a year ago now based on a friends recommendation and have enjoyed great savings and service. We had tried a number of different companies over the years but always had issues here or there. To date, we have been very happy with Bounce. They have delivered on the pricing and plan we selected with no hassles. What few questions we have had were resolved quickly via the on site chat feature or via phone. The one thing that could be better was the hold time on the phone but chat is a great alternative.

Nice reward program
They have 4 different rewards program so when you reach the final level of your current reward program you can switch to a different rewards program. Their website is easy to use and setting up as well as canceling autopay is easy.

Impressed New Customer
Bounce has been great so far!! It was pretty easy to set up a new account (just call and the customer service rep will do everything for you), but what I really like about them are the promotions! They have a ton! My last electric company (BTX utilities) didn't do stuff like that, at least to my knowledge. I haven't had to pay yet, and I've been a customer for two months. That says a lot to me. I also was able to get a fully green plan, which was important to me. You can get $50 if you use a promotion code (that's what I did).

Great provider, excellent promotions.
We've been with bounce for over two years, and I must say that we are quite happy with our service. We have not experienced any outages and have taken advantage of many of the discount programs. Last month our entire bill was covered by referrals that we had made! Can't complain about that!

Have been 1 year of user. Very satisfied
As a one year customer, we feel very satisfied. The highlight point is the bill is very clear and understandable. No trick, No so called extremely low price with adding some other credit or cost on your bill to surprise you. So, we continue with Bounce energy and keep watching on the price. Hope it will be another good year as before.

Great Company!
I've had Bounce Energy for a couple of years now in Alvin, TX. I've had absolutely no issues with them. I've even transferred services recently and was able to switch to a cheaper plan. I've read some of the negative reviews here and a few people mentioned that their kwh has doubled after switching plans - personally (in my opinion), I think their usage just went up so because of that, the "average kwh" that they are seeing on their bill is higher, which leads them to think that it is higher in general. That's not the case at all. It just shows the average kwh of what you're paying, which is in relation to, well, how much electricity you use.

Customer review
I have no complaints with Bounce Energy. I have a great experience with them and even renewed after my year was up. My bill changes , depending on the season, however, I have never rec'd an outrageous bill. The most my light bill has been is $150 range. If there has ever been a need for me to contact Bounce energy the customer service was always great. Choose Bounce energy. You wont be disappointed.

A Great Company! Use Code: 2011411
Bounce Energy has excellent customer service and great rewards! When we initially signed up we had a few issues which were quickly remedied. We chose the Express Move 24 plus plan which includes a Nest Learning Thermostat and we couldn't have chosen a better option! We received great discounts, coupons, and moving quotes. Our energy bills are very low since the Nest Thermostat was installed! The reward programs are extremely fun! For some reason my account wasn't going toward rewards, and the customer service representative was helpful, thorough, and apologetic. We highly recommend this company!

Still a happy customer....
Renewing with the same energy provider for the first time since moving to Texas over four years ago. I just can't leave Bounce! Their rewards program is awesome, their customer service is awesome and I have absolutely nothing to complain about. Their rates were not as low as some of the other companies - but after a few phone calls I spoke to an agent who gave me a monthly retention discount in addition to lowering their posted rate. SO - keep asking until you get what you want.

BOUNCE HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!
So much for JD Power & Associates surveys.
I would definitely NOT recommend Bounce. I ordered service to be turned on 3 days prior to moving into my new residence. I go to move in, auto garage door doesn't open. I walk in and find the electricity is not on! This is at 5:30 on a Friday night. I was on the phone for over an hour to get the service on. At that point I was already locked into their contract.Every time I call there is either an unacceptable length of a wait time or I get a message that Bounce is experiencing "technical difficulties" and I cannot get through to anyone. When I do actually get through I find the reps are untrained, unprofessional and cannot answer my questions. Chat reps have shut me down when when they can't answer my questions.The rewards program is a joke. a total farce. I chose a gift card once and did not receive it after 2 months. When I called about it I was told they "ran out" of gift cards. They offered an Amazon coupon through MPell Solutions which was not honored by Amazon. Their service is so bad I am reporting them to the BBB. I can't wait till my contract with them is finished.

Great Company with Perks
I don't know about you but I love to save money. Check out this cool deal from Bounce Energy. When you sign up for electricity service, we both get $50. The Bounce Energy Refer-a-Friend Program is simple, quick and easy. All you have to do is refer my friends and family to Bounce Energy by giving them my unique link or promo code. They will do the rest. I'll get a $50 bill credit for each friend who switches to Bounce Energy AND you will also get a $50 bill credit. Give this code to your friends, they $450.00 on my bill, just by using this program plus movie tickets and gift cards. It's a win win situation. for us all.

Very unhappy with customer service
Called to have electricity started on a certain date the lady I first talked to told me it would be fine because it was before 3 pm. Called back the next day to check and this lady didn't find any documentation of that, therefore have to wait and extra 4 days before turned on.

Its very good electric company and I have been using since 2 years without any problem. After switching to this provider my bill almost reduced to half. Also they have very good rewardprogram and gives you cash back of $75 , $25 etc on time to time like for 3 or 6 months or if autopay chosen. Their rates are decent and didn't get any problems so far and it is very easyto switch to Bounce Energy.

Love this company
Just joined Bounce energy and could not be happier. A friend in Dallas told me about them but I was skeptical at first until my first bill came in the mail. It was over $60 dollars less than what I was charged by TXU and that was before the rebate. The plans were easy to understand and pick and the ordering and switch from TXU was easy and straight forward. Definitely recommending to my family and friends.

Never Had A Problem With Them
Have been with them for over three years. I have had great service with them. Haven't had any issues with them and would recommend them. Every year when my plan is going to expire I always compare shop and they always beat out other energy companies. Remember you always have to read the fine print, because other companies might charge extra hidden fees. There are several reward options to choose from like airline miles, automatic payments etc as well.

Just don't use Bounce
I am locked in for another year, I have no choice. They tell you these stories about all the gift cards you will get for just paying your bill on time. I pay my bill on time but I will take a reward for it....except these rewards are bogus. I got the first gift card for $15 to Amazon. Tried to use it, it was used. Talked to an EXTREMELY rude representative. I finally told her just don't tell me any more crap about a gift card, just listening to her yammer gave me a headache! Just go for a company that offers low rates, don't be sucked in as I was with the offer of free stuff. Like you Mom said....nothing is free and Bounce certainly is not.

Bounce made an already difficult situation even worse, and therefore lost a long time customer who will make sure everyone she talks about the poor business practices and bad customer service!

Worst Bill and Customer Service of any utility I have dealt with
Horrible customer service, cannot get service dates right, transfer service correctly and anytime they pull up your account information, check your automatic payment setup because they will have screwed it up, 3 times and counting. Very rude agents and guarantee you will have to make 2 calls to get them to do any requests.

Contract
I was with another company that merged with bounce. After speaking with my previous company I was told I could maintain my current contract that had another year remaining. I recieved and email acknowledging my order with bounce which I did not initiate. I wanted to maintain my contract as I was told I could because I had locked in a good rate and we plan on moving in the near future so it just made sense. After calling to find out what my new contract was I found out my rate was increased from 7.1755 cents per kWh to 8.5. I do not think its right that I was switched over to a new company without discussing terms or that my rate was increased when I had a contract. As a consumer we are penalized for breaking or contract so why is it ok for the company to break my contract and raise my rates. I am very dissatisfied with this whole process and will be looking for a new electricity provider.

Awesome company
I researched many electric companies before I chose them. I was moving into a new house by myself so I wanted an affordable plan with a low rate. I have been with Bounce Energy for about a year and I absolutely love it! Whats cool is they email you a weekly usage report so you can compare the previous weeks usage with your current weeks usage.

Very Happy with our Choice!!
We decided to switch to Bounce Energy when we moved into a new home in July of 2015. So far, we are extremely pleased. Their communication (electronic) is excellent. They send savings opportunities via email as well as your weekly electricity usage, so you know what to expect on your monthly bill. On that note, their rates are awesome compared to our previous supplier, First Choice Power. Our bill is now $125 (in the Texas summer months) or so per month as opposed to close to $300!! Customer service has been easy to work with as well. They also have rewards programs - which is a plus on top of what we are already saving! We have called 2 or 3 times to set up the account, add a location and for a quick billing question, and they answer quickly and are polite. So far, though we are just 4 months in, we are very happy with Bounce and how easy it is to work with him. I can definitely recommend them to others at this point.

Good prices and incentives
I've been with Bounce for over 6 months now and I must say, they are the best energy provider thus far. Prices are fair and they offer great incentive programs.

I've been with Bounce for over 1 year now and have not had any issues. Prices are good, and they offer promotional programs like cash-back for on time payments etc. They also have a referral program to earn account credit.

No value to existing customers
I was a Bounce energy customer services since February 2012 - June 2013 and again from Jan-2014 till last week. I was very much satisfied with the services until last week before I called their customer service to transfer my services from one apartment to another and to my surprise i was asked to deposit $400 just for moving my services to new apartment. I don't understand this as why an existing customer who is paying all the bills on time is suddenly being charged with deposit of $400 when he's just asking to move the services. There was no satisfactory answer from the person on the call which can justify the deposit that I was asked for. After that I called another energy company and they immediately processed my request without asking for a single penny.Ill definitely not recommend anyone to go with this energy company. On their website they do lot of marketing that if you pay these many bills on time youll get this or youll get that. Whereas Im being a customer from last 22 months and forget about giving any discounts or what they advertise on their site, they asked me for $400 deposit just for moving my services.I would suggest better go with some other energy company then this one.

Signed up for Bounce recently, and I can say the pricing and rewards seem to be great, and the account set up online was very simple. Much better than than my previous electric provider.

Bounce Energy.
I am using Bounce Energy for 2 months now. Moving from my earlier service provider is no issue. Got my $25 discount in first bill for signing Bounce Energy without calling or following them. In second month automatic bill got processed but i received mail that issue in payment so contact Help Desk. On contacting they said payment is processed it is just technical issue from there side. So in 2 months no issue. They have now $75 discount for new customer enrolling.

Not Recommended
Was charged a $300 early termination fee on my close-out bill, even though the contract states that there is no early termination fee if you move, and that you provide Bounce with your forwarding address. I did exactly what was asked and they still charged me.

Terrible
Terrible experience. On my first bill as a new customer, I was charged for a priority connect fee by Encore that Bounce requested -- not me. I asked for proof that I had requested a priority connect (they are recorded) and a request an adjustment. Both requests were ignored. Customer Service talks a good talk, but that's all it is. Once they take advantage of you, they won't make it right. Also, after repeated requests, they can't get my service address correct. On my bill it reads: "0 @rr 1 China Springs" What the heck kind of address is that?

Great experience and quality service!!
So far I have had an excellent experience with Bounce. There customer service has been very good and I have been very happy with their rate plans and the process to renew the plan when it expires. I found customer service very helpful in choosing the plan that was right for me. Bounce also allows you to select what rewards you want to earn so that you get what is most important to you. So glad that I switched to Bounce.

Favorite company yet
I switched electric providers nearly every six months since moving to Texas 4 years ago always looking for a better rate. I switched to Bounce about 7 months ago and plan to stay with them I like them so much! Their rates are competitive & I love their rewards program... which I didn't have with any of the other companies I used. Switching to them was easy, their bills are straightforward, their customer service has been great. I highly recommend them. If this review was helpful, please use my reward code if you switch to them and we will both be rewarded! How many other companies have you reviewed that give you bonuses??? Good luck... I think you'll be happy if you make this switch.

Service & rewards
We love Bounce, have been Bounce customers for over 4 yrs now & have found Bounce to offer not only good customer service but also are very competitive on their rates. there was one time I failed to choose a plan when ours ran out making out rate plan month to month at over 12 cents per kw instead of 8 cents kw, I called bounce explained what happened and without any problems they helped us lock into a plan and adjusted our bill instantly. Not only are they a little lower per kw but they give you a welcome bonus for paying on time.. you choose from 3 rewards options. the option we choose toped out at 36 mo on bonus rewards but still earn a 3% discount on your monthly bill when you pay on time. I would like to see the airline rewards plan change to be points accrued under any form of payment instead of being an option only if you are paying with 1 certain credit card that will work to earn flight mileage. otherwise I would have switched to airline rewards after toping out on our rewards plan.

Referral bonus. For you and me together!!
I just renewed my plan for another 6 months. I wanted to extend my original plan and found out the original plan was available for a slightly less cheaper charge.
Nonetheless, haven't received any unexpected charges, the rate was fixed as planned.
The two were all I was looking for and was delivered as promised.

Good Electric company
Its very good electric company and I have been using since 1 and 1/2 year without any problem. After switching to this provider my bill almost reduced to half. Also they have very good reward program and gives you cash back of $50 , $25 etc on time to time like for 3 or 6 months or if autopay chosen. Their rates are decent and didn't get any problems so far and it is very easy to switch to Bounce Energy. NOT SURE WHY PEOPLE ARE GIVING NEGATIVE REVIEWS. TRUST ME IT IS A VERY GOOD ELECTRIC PROVIDER.$50 Off First Bill + $50 Visa Card + $15 Walmart Card + 3% cash backGet rewarded every six months and earn items such as gift cards, airline miles, bill credits, and even a FREE month of electricity!

Extremely Poor Customer Service
1. I wanted to add a new service to my account. So I tried using the "Transfer of Service" option, it worked fine until I hit Submit. It gave me an error. Then I tried the chat, but was told that that functionality does not work and I have call them. So I called them. I was told that they see 3 ESI ID's for my new address and I was asked to resolve this with Centerpoint and call Bounce Energy when I have the right ESI ID. Then I tried the ESI ID lookup ( by searching on Google), it showed precisly ONE ESI ID for the address. So I called them back, this time they helped me without asking me for the ESI Id, the rep was too good, he did the ESI ID look up etc and setup the account. So the previous rep didnot even care to do the lookup.2. I got a DISCONNECT notice for my another account for non-payment of balance. I tried to login, there system was down. So I called, I was told they cannot help since they too cannot access the system. So I chatted the next day, I was told that the notice was sent in error, and they have no way to find errorneous notices sent. (They did give me a 5 dollar bill credit)

REALLY BAD ENERGY COMPANY!! STAY AWAY!!
I am a customer since 2009 and had a good experience. The company changed, they keep changing there policy contract to get more money from you. They give a lower rate but at the end you pay more as they charge high disconnection fees for being late just hours and others. They used to give a fair 3 day late notice to charge per contract, but now, is just after being late for hours. Please check your bill carefully and will see how you finish paying much higher rates due to hidden charges. Called customer service and they told me they can "adjust" the contract as they see fit". Recommend to stay away from Bounce as they are not transparent with you.

This is a great Electricity Company
We have had Bounce Energy for 5 months now and have been extremely satisified! We signed up online because that was the only way to get it the cheapest and we could customize our plan to our needs. They also gave us a bill credit and give us a bill credit for special promotions when they are running. We have not had any problems with our bill and trust that if we did they would gladly take care of it. We previously had Tri eagle but are much happier with our savings and over all experience with Bounce.

Awesome company
I researched many electric companies before I chose them. I was moving into a new house by myself so I wanted an affordable plan with a low rate. I have been with Bounce Energy for about a year and I absolutely love it! Whats cool is they email you a weekly usage report so you can compare the previous weeks usage with your current weeks usage.

BOUNCE ENERGY IS NOT A TRUSTWORTHY COMPANY !
We have had Bounce Energy for a year. Sounded so great when we signed up. We signed up under a plan that allowed us to receive American Airlines points/miles. Well. after many many phone calls speaking to everyone as we were switched around, and given the run-around, we were lied to multiple times. To date not one point/mile has been transfered, after more promises then one could imagine. Each and every time, we called in asking about the miles that were not reported, we were promised faithfully the miles would be transfered to American immediately. it has NEVER happened. Please beware of this company, the rates may be good but their word is not! PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY.

Great Experience!
I've had nothing but pleasant experiences with their customer service. The website is very user friendly, a little slow at times, however that could due to server issues. Prices are great! And their rewards are even better!!! I was with reliant before and signed up to what I thought was a good deal but was greatly misled and suckered into their trap. But with Bounce I have lowered bills and amazing rewards to help me lower my costs.

New to Bounce
I read many reviews and decided to give Bounce a try. I have just started with them this month. No problems so far. I considered prices and customer experiences in making my selection. My previous provider had rewards that were silly - very restrictive and difficult to use. So, I'm not sure if Bounce is like all the rest with rewards, but a $50 credit is a nice perk. If you use someone's referral code, you get a $50 credit and so do they. Thanks for your consideration! I hope to write another review once I've been with the company for several months.

Living in TX A/C bills can sky rocket the rates seem to be better than competitors I took my time reviewing and researching many company's before I signed up! I used a code to get $50 bucks off and you can too! I have earned a $50 visa card a $50 restaurant.com card a $15 Starbucks card and 1 month free electricity plus countless other savings! Bounce offers 6 month to 24 month plans at least give it a try! The customer service has always been helpful and on point.

Best electric company I've used, going on 2 years.
Never had any problems with Bounce Energy. I'm renewing for a second year. They have great rates and customized plans ( if you don't want to be locked in a 12 month plan, you have the option to customize) you can also receive rewards like bill credit and gift cards if you pay your bill on time.When you put in the referral code above, you will get a one time $50 bill credit. You will also get another code of your own, when someone else uses the code both you and them will receive $50 credit for your bills. It's a win-win situation and the rewards will pile up. I've saved over a thousand dollars using this code method!

Hope you don't have to call them
Every time I call Bounce I have to wait 20 - 25 minutes to get a customer service representative. Then, if you are not interested in renewing they have no interest in answering any questions, but only to tell you not to believe the rates their competitors are offering.

They play dumb with rewards
They offered a $150 for switching. I was supposed to receive after 3 on-time payments and I'm pretty good at keeping up with those things except this time. I sent an email 2 weeks ago, after 7 months of not having received the gift card, and they never responded. I called this morning and they apologized and said that I was supposed to have called, which is a lie: the terms stated that I was supposed to make a selection online and I did.
Same with their rewards programs. They say you can select/redeem online, but there's nowhere on their website. I had to call and they sent an email saying I had to respond to an email from another company which sends the gift cards and the other company never sent the email. I had to call again and finally received the card.
Don't sign up if you don't want to pay enormous extra (dubious) fees which you get back in form of "rewards" if you spend a lot of time calling customer service.
BTW, all the great reviewers seem to just do it to post their codes, so that they get the referral bonus.

Customer Service
Contacted these people because one of my tenants were using them and the power was already in the home. I work out with them to continue the service, create me and account and just forward the bill to my home address. Easy Right......Nope. These people turn the power off right in the middle of a major cleaning job. Then they tell me to contact some other company call Oncor because I might have a "power outage" in the area. .... wrong.....They created the power outage on just my home. On top of that I had to wait for a customer service rep to get on line for over an hour. You can use this company if you like .....but I would highly not recommend it !!!

Bewarned!
I've never dealt with a company like this before. I pay all my bills electronically & submit payment a few days before due date. Bounce showed they constantly got payments late (no one else did). They suggested I submit payment weeks earlier than due date & I suggested they change their due date. They cut power for a $44.00, 1 mouth payment because they hadn't received it so I had to pay again just to get power turned back on. They charged me $25.00 for cutting it off, $25 to turn it on! Tried to get breakdown of costs since I'd paid 1 bill, 2 times. Was on hold for over 2 hrs, no one ever picked up. Sent 3 emails with no replies. But I DID get a letter telling me it was time to renew my contract. At least they have a sense of humor. Can't get away from them fast enough.

Customer service experience
I have a previous address and two current addresses with Bounce. You can get on line fast to place a service order but I just waited over 32 minutes between 11 am and noon and was still on hold. Tried the Chat and no one "was there", I should "try later". They also put the burden on the customer to apply for their rewards, and in my experience, their agent does not handle the reward requests. I would love to have a manager call me. I am a management consultant/trainer. My professional assessment - this is not the way to do it.

Betting you will be as happy as I am
I have been with Bounce Energy for over 18 months now and could not be happier. It seems like I have tried every other company out there until I found Bounce. They have been exceptional across the board. Before my month rate plan expired, they sent numerous emails months in advance reminding me to change. When I didn't select a new plan, my rates did go up but not through the roof like with others. Oh and guess what... they still sent me reminders to select a new plan to get the best rate. I really could not be happier. I see comments from time to time on here about customer service but I have never had a single issues. I hope you will be as happy as I am.

New title: Customer "Fighter" People
Bounce Energy used Switch and Bait tactics to sign me up for service at a low rate, and then changed the rate up without my knowledge by sending an email that "forced" me to make the choice and gave no options.Their customer service may be better skilled for the army, than for a client service environment. The moment you connect with them they go on the attack. Even their managers, when I escalate to them, they hung up the phone in my face.I already cancelled my service with them, even if they are threatening a penalty, but I would like others to know so maybe they are spared this stress.

Great company, I recommend.
I have been using this company for the past few months and was a little hesitant/nervous with being a first time renter and using a new service. I have no complaint, Bounce has done a great job!
I hope this post is helpful to someone who is searching for a great energy company!

IM HAPPY WITH BOUNCE AND STIKING WITH THEM UPON RENEWAL
So obviously you should compare the EFT label for all companies and compare prices in the range of how much u use regularly but if bounce is close to another company in price I would definitely recommend it based on a few reasons.
1) website is pretty awesome - can track rewards, view bills, set up auto pay
2) referral program and rewards is pretty solid - I saved 300 bucks last year off referrals alone
3) customer service has been great every time I've called included to transfer my service

Bounce Energy plants reviews from makebelieve consumers
I believe that Bounce Energy is planting reviews from fictitious customers, something most other companies are not doing. The reviews that specify a promo code and are extremely glowing are almost certainly being planted. Other sources have complained about Bounce Energy's failure to honor special deals. My bad experience deals with something else. Misleading advertising which some other companies are also guilty of. There was a huge problem with Bounce Energy failing to send paperwork that contained necessary disclosures. Bounce Energy refused to honor an email that specifically said I had 3 business days from the date of receiving documents in the mail to cancel without penalty. I saw another website elsewhere that was so heavily stacked with glowing reviews for Bounce Energy, I knew it either had to be cherrypicked or planted and bogus.

Customer Service sucks
Customer Service sucks. When I called to the customer service, the agent on the other side was not even capable of looking up my account, and asked me" are you sure you are with Bounce Energy"? When I changed my address, she kept taking the wrong house number, and was not even bothered to check the house number with me. When I asked her to repeat the number to me, she said "Oh I already submitted it", and it turned out that she had the wrong house number. Save yourself, and don't choose Bounce Energy.

USE CODE 1969095 for 50$ bill credit
I've been with Bounce for about 3 months. I'm satisfied with the service, customer service and billing.
The rates were quite nominal. They have a decent reward program. Better than some of the big players.
You should try them out.

VERY GOOD ELECTRIC COMPANY
Its very good electric company and I have been using since 1 year without any problem. Also they have very good reward program and gives you cash back of $50 , $25 etc on time to time like for 3 or 6 months or if auto pay chosen on first bill. Their rates are decent and didn't get any problems so far.

Low Rates, Awesome Incentives, Outstanding Customer Service!!
I have been using Bounce since November 2013, I must say they are the best Company i have ever dealt with! I signed up on a very low rate 0f 7.9 per KWH I have NEVER had a problem and I get rewards every few months which is AWESOME! I have had many friends make the switch and none have been disappointed I highly recommend them!! If your new to TX you will want to take advantage of this low rates and many rewards for paying on time because the summer heat will generate high bills but with bounce you will be happy that your low rate will keep $$ in your pocket!!

Not happy
I'm a truck driver and i'm gone for weeks at a time. When i get home i get my bills and pay them. This time i get home and i have a disconnect letter ... Ok ... I call Bounce and try to get a ONE day extension for when i get paid. They were quick to say no and it's not allowed anymore. I've been with them for over 2 years... I feel like my loyalty is not worth jack squat to them. I will be looking for a new company on payday. Thanks Bounce for understanding your customers needs and situations. Good Bye

Awful Customer Service
After waiting an initial 10 minutes to speak to a rep., I was put on hold for 10+ minutes of silence. When I questioned what the rep was telling me, I was put on hold again, this time with music, for 30+ minutes without ever hearing anything other than an automated recording and music. This is currently happen on Tuesday March 10, 2015 and as of 4:50 PM and am still waiting for someone to address my concern.

Beware! True review not free advertisement by them...
Please don't sign up with them! They are unethical liars and thiefs! This company should be shit down by the government!!! I will report to the BBB!!!
Anyways after being a loyal customer- paying close to 300 a month for 18 month the bill more than doubled- to $626- for a 2 bedroom, one bathroom with 2 people?!?
When I called to tell them something was wrong they tried to make it look like it was normal to have that big of an electricity bill and even I stayed calm (because I wont pay- luckily there wasnt enough money in my account when they tried to take (steal) it so will change my debit card). they got very defensive which made it even more clear that something was wrong with that price. No explanation nothing just someone that seemed slow and detached...
Well I switched to a different company and now pay $150 a month. They billed me for the half of the month until I switched another $450 I am refusing to pay!
It's absolutely rediclueles- the 2 largest electricity bills I received my whole life in the winter 2 month in a row... I guess they jacked up the rates. They need to because their customers are running away fast. I noticed that most of the reviews are negative besides the one with the promo code. Do I need to say more?!

Okay company
This is my second time to sign up for a plan with Bounce Energy. In the past I used them for seven months on a month-to-month plan, and had few problems. Bounce Energy offered comparable rates, so I signed up with them.

This company has the worst policies and customer service I have ever seen. They took my deposit and cancelled my service and contact even after the bill had been paid in full. Then had the nerve to ask for a second deposit. Stay away from this company!

Promise the Rewards BUT you never get them
On 1/7/2015, I was told I had made the 6 payments on time and should receive my $ 50.00 "GIFT CARD WITHIN 4-6 WEEKS". On 2/12, spoke with Victoria, she said "You should receive GIFT CARD ANY DAY NOW". 2/23/15, called and customer service said "NO YOU DON'T RECEIVE AN ACTUAL GIFT CARD. WE WILL SEND YOU THE CODE FOR A FREE $ 50.00 GIFT CARD". I asked to speak to a supervisor, she said there is not one and "YOU DON'T NEED TO TALK TO ANYONE BUT ME". So, On 1/7/15-I had made the 6 payments on time & was told 4-6 weeks for $ 50.00 gift card. GUESS WHAT? 3/2/15-NO GIFT CARD, NO CODE FOR A GIFT CARD. Bounce provides pretty good service but when you are promised a reward for paying on time, it is ALL A LIE. The Customer Service is very very rude and you can expect to get hung on many times. RELIANT IS MUCH MORE DEPENDABLE AND SAME RATE. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANYONE EXCEPT FOR "BOUNCE ENERGY".

So excited about my electric company!
Yes, I am excited! My monthly bill with Bounce is much lower over last year when I was with another electric company. I was really surprised at how much my bill dropped. Electricity is electricity. I don't want to have to pay any more than I have to.

Bonus not received
I signed up with Bounce Energy a year ago and agreed to have my monthly billing charged to my credit card. Therefore all timely payments. The plan included receiving a $50 restaurant gift card after 6 months of timely payments and a $50 Visa gift card after 12 months. They will not contact you when you have earned these rewards. I forgot about the $50 restaurant earned last August and contacted them three weeks ago and I was told it would take three weeks beforing hearing from them in reference to this award. The monthly base pay of $9.95 is too high and for that reason I found another energy company that has no monthly base pay charges and lower rates. I switched to this company earlier this month. I called Bounce Energy for my $50 Visa card reward and they told me because I switched to another company they would not issue it. This was not part of the agreement of signing up. I would never give them my business again and I don't recommend this company for energy.

I saved $50.00
I just signed up for my second year with Bounce Energy, and the pricing for this year stayed very close to that of last year. They have had some great promotions available, too - one was using the Friends Code which saved me $50.00. The code really did work.
I like this company because every time I have called with a question the phone is answered by a person - not a computer!

STAY AWAY with Bounce Energy !!!!!!!
We signed up with Bounce for 6.9 cents per KWH. But, our monthly bills have been high compared to our old service provider Reliant Energy. Hidden fees were not told up front at all. We are actually paying 13 cents per KWH instead of 6.9 cents. Account manger never returned our call in this matter. For now, we are stucked until the end of our contract :(

Get Great Rates and Choose Your Rewards
I have been with Bounce Energy for over a year now. They very promptly notified me when my initial rate plan was expiring. When I went to get another plan, I found that those available to choose from were still very competitive with the offers others companies had to win new customers. This was a pleasant surprise as I am used to finding that the offers to keep customers are no where near a nice as those offered to those switching. Continue to be very happy with Bounce! Don't miss out on getting your discount.

Great refer a friend program
Never had problems with this company, using this promo code for refer a friend credit is amazing. I've saved over a $1000 and haven't paid an electric bill in months. It was a difficult decision, but I'm glad I chose this company. Saving that much money puts more food on the table!

Customer service
Customer service is terrible, when we sold our house in dallas . Bounce sent the final bill to an unknown address,so I never received the bill. So they sent it off to a collection agency without any follow up. I have paid the bill and found out that they took the info down wrong, stating that it was their fault,but they don't care and will not send me a letter stating that. They won't return calls, they lie and say they can not send out a letter like that.!!!!! They just lie and say that has to come from corp but wont connect me to anyone at corp. They also had two other ways to get hold of me after they got the bill returned for wrong address, phone and email are both correct. But they say that after you close your account they don't use those anymore.I would call that BS,use another company.

Just switched to Bounce
We have had service with Startex, Champion and Frontier and didn't have any problems with any of them. We shop around when the contract is up to get better rates with different companies. If any of the three companies had offered us the lower rate, we would have stayed with them. We just switched to Bounce and so far the experience has been great. We love the reward program idea... which we didn't have with the other companies. The prices were competitive for companies with positive reviews. I ignore the lower priced companies if their reviews are poor. Customer service on the phone was quick and the representatives were very helpful. I called 3 times before making the switch just to see how their phone service was. Thank you and good luck!

Poor Customer Service
I originally signed up for Bounce under a 6 moth plan, so I could test the waters and see how I felt about them. They offered a pretty low rate, so I decided to go for it. 6 months came and went, and my contract period with them expired. I had not experienced any problems with them, so I decided to renew, but my rates were *significantly* higher for the renewal. I decided to sign up for a year contract anyway, since I was already established with them.My biggest complaint with Bounce is that they have very poor customer support. They are a "take or leave it" sort of operation, similar to the utility providers with which we have no other option to use, like the water company. Bounce does not really focus on customer service at all. Electricity providers have competition here in Texas due to deregulation of the electric market, and there are quite a few energy providers one can choose from. You would think Bounce would offer more support for their customers, since we can choose our own provider, but Bounce does no such thing. They do not offer payment extensions, live chat support, or a decent average billing program. Their website is clunky, and archaic. Do not bother e-mailing them for support, because they will never respond to you. I have sent countless emails to which I have never received one reply. Once my year with Bounce is up, I am done with their company forever.

Just switched after to Bounce
Looking forward to earning rewards. I I switched to Bounce Energy after Reliant customer service representative blatantly lied to me about the rates, service, and terms. I received a bill for $163 for 22 days. I just moved into the apartment and work in events so I am never home. The rate was very high. I am from another state and not accustom to deregulation etc. I asked the rep to thoroughly explain and she did not. Therefore I am here. I will be back to write another review in a few months. Looking forward to better service.

Great for what you pay monthly.

Best out of Bounce, Reliant, and Direct Energy
I have had Reliant, Direct Energy, and currently am with Bounce Energy. Reliant was the worst. Direct is pretty good. When I had them, they participated in Light up Texas which helps struggling families get their bill paid. BUT when I moved to a new town, I researched for the best price and found Bounce. It really sounded to good to be true, but they are absolutely AMAZING. First off when I Googled reviews, I found several people posted their "Refer A Friend Code" in their references because when someone starts service and uses the code, that person AND the person starting service gets a $50 bill credit. Which is Legit. Bounce Energy also sends you movie theater and restaurant gift cards, and periodically $50 bill credits when you pay your bill on time for consecutive months at a time (starting at 4 months.) I live in an upstairs, high vaulted ceiling apartment (1 br) and my bill is always around $85-$90 even when it's hot outside. They will send you a weekly usage summary so that you can see how much you're using each week (which helps me be cautious of when I need to quit leaving lights on in rooms that I'm not in.) All in all the best thing is that the bill is so low and then the side perks are just great. It's the little things :)

UPDATE: We Switched and Its Still Great!
CURRENT UPDATE: We still couldn't be happier and they still offer us the cheapest rate. We locked in our rate for 12 months, picked the e-billing option, yes to auto pay, no thanks on green. Plus we got a $25 bill credit at sign-up, a $50 credit after our first 3 months, quarterly rewards and the referral bonus is great. We lowered our electricity bill and earned $50!! Sign-up-today! Great Company. As for the negative reviews about not receiving the bill credits and late fees just make sure you make your payments on time EVERY month. Also customer service has never been and issue for us. When we have had to call our questions where answered and the wait time is usually less then 5 minutes. We are still very happy customers!! Thanks to the rewards program and cheaper rates we are now saving over $300 a year. I highly recommend using this company.

Awesome energy company!!!!
I had Green Mountain Energy and TXU before I switched to Bounce Energy. They are great energy provider and have a great costumer service. It's been six months and I have had no problems.

Reviews??
This company's #1 ranking in the poll appears to be pumped up by customers (or company reps??) touting their "promo codes" to everyone so they can glean additional $50 discounts on their bills. Kinda cheesy if you asked me. The negative reviews seem to by typical of other consumer complaints: "no one answers the friggin' phone" etc. I would avoid companies like this.

Use code 1539780 for discount. Great Rates and Great Rewards
I have been with Bounce Energy for almost a year now and still a very happy customer. I still have the rate I signed up for, I can access my account anytime from anywhere and I am earning great rewards for the electricity I use anyway. Have only had to talk to customer service twice and each time was able to quickly get answers and resolution. Compared to the 3 other companies I have had in the past, this has been a night and day experience. All Positive!!

Awesome Company!
I have had this company for sometime now and they are seriously awesome. Their customer service has been prompt to help me every time I have called, and I have never had any service or billing issues. The rate they advertised is the one I have been charged so far. They even send you emails with your weekly energy usage and some hints on how to reduce energy usage. They also use the most amount of recyclable energy of any of the other major companies.

Good for 1 year then raised price
They were pretty good for the past year, then my renewal came and it was .01/kwh higher, 1 cent, and did not do anything to keep me - when I called to speak to someone about my renewal, they were not very helpful and said I could see my renewal prices online and that was it. No attempt to keep me. Their rewards program was pretty good, I did get rewards of $50 for 6 mth payment on time - it was a restaurant.com gift card. If they offered to keep my rate the same for another year, not even lower it, I would have stayed. But no such luck. I changed to Brilliant and will see how that goes for another year - if I have to change every year, which seems to be the pattern for the last 2 years, I will. Gexa did the same to me a year ago. It is a shame that no company will try to keep their customers by maintaining or even lowering their rate. It costs more more to get a new customer than to keep a current one - don't they know that?

Stealing People's money
I got this company because I was told by my apartment complex to get them. I was 19 when I moved into my apartments and got this energy company. I am YOUNG, but NOT STUPID. After being with this company for a few months, I received a notice from my bank that I had $100 in NSF fees. I knew I should have plenty money in my account. When I contacted my bank they said that Bounce Energy took a payment twice, which cause several other transactions to be "insufficient Funds". I told my bank they should not have done that. I called Bounce and they didn't even apologize. All they did was ask if I wanted to leave it on there as a credit. I told them no because they never should have taken the payment twice. They said they would credit my account. Fortunately for them, my bank had already told me that they saw where this was the energy company's fault and refunded the NSF fees back to my account. They are SO lucky that I have an understanding bank.

Excellent experience with Bounce Energy so far
Have been with them for over a year now and love it! Great customer service, no problems with billing or payments, and awesome rewards! We signed up for auto-billing and have had no issues. Their website is easy to navigate, they send weekly electricity usage statistics, and have some pretty decent loyalty/rewards programs (3% cash back, free movie tickets, etc).
I have been personally quite happy with them! I also saved $100 on my first bill.

Hope this review helps! $50 credit code: 1896774
Hello Sir/Ma'am, I would recommend this company. Some tips that I hope helps you out for those in the Military as I am or if youre not I think youll still find it helpful. If you have movers scheduled I'd recommend having the electricity turned on one day in advance. I scheduled my electricity to be turned on the same day the movers were showing up and the electricity was delayed by an hour from when it was supposed to be turned on. The scheduled turn on is completely automated so calling the company wont do much good the day the service is supposed to start. Save yourself the stress and have it turned on early. Also the autopay is a pretty good system which saves you from the hassle. Overall Im happy with the service and dont have any major complaints. Wishing you all the best and a stress free experience with this service and life in general!

Hours on the phone
Everything was alright till I moved out of my apt. and wanted to take the service off my name! I spend about 4 hours (in different days) till I get to talk to a costumer rep.. I took it off my name, they charged me and a few days later charged me again for the bill and I had to go through HOUUURRRSSS of waiting to talk to a costumer service again!

So far so good! REF: 1593192 for $50
Introductory rates are good and I haven't had any unexpected charges on my bills so far (been with bounce for 4 months) The rate for the month-to-month plan has increased as the summer goes on, but I expect it to drop this winter and I'll lock the rate for a longer term (hopefully). I received my $50 credit on my 3rd bill for the sign-up referral as promised.

Bounce Energy has been great!
I switched from Star-Tex (they didn't even try to save me when I switched) to Bounce Energy because the rate was much lower. I didn't notice any difference in my service. The only difference I noticed was a lower rate and Bounce emails me a weekly usage report. So far everything has been great.

Extra deposit being charged after 12 months of service
Bounce is a good company. (As far as my monthly bills are concerned!) However, its time to renew my plan and after a year of loyalty I was told by the rep that there's a $100 deposit required to renew my service. Never have I been with any company and they required me to pay an additional deposit. I do not believe they value their customers as they should. Don't get me wrong the $100 deposit isn't the issue. The issue is the treatment of loyalty and being committed to a company that doesn't hold the same loyalty and commitment to you! I honestly believe this is illegal and I'm looking into it. Has anyone else had this happen to then as well?

I give Bounce Energy a great rating!
I have had some bad experiences with other companies, but Bounce has a very good reputation here in my area. I ended up signing up online with the "build your own" plan. I have every expectation that they will be a great provider. I value customer service, and that was a major part of my decision.
Fake "reviews" for higher ratings Stay away
They have a lot of reviews offering "promo codes" and pricing that I am convinced are published by representatives. Terrible customer service long call wait times for anything unless you are buying new service. Save yourself some time and stay away from these guys.

Complete crap!
First off you don't get your rewards as promise. Second if you go just one day pass your due date they will blow up your phone telling you to pay. Then right after 6 days of being late they send a disconnection notice and then charge you $20 just for that and then a $10 late fee!! Not everyone gets paid one due dates! Oh and when I try to call and ask questions on my bill I sit an average of 30mins on hold waiting for a real person to come on to speak to! So yep I am now breaking my contract and they can shove my last bill and any other fees up their asses!

Be Aware of 'Auto-pay', Communication and The Company Line - The Customer Is Never Right!
After having Bounce since 9/2012 (switched from 20+ years w/TXU) and recommending Bounce many times during those early months and always paying our bill on time or ahead of payment time (and receiving several referral 'bonuses' and 'cash-back rewards'), I noticed when it came time to lock in a new rate this spring 2014, that Bounce wasn't getting customer ratings as highly as they were in 9/2012. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because they seemed to be constantly in contact via email (their touted 'customer account management software') about everything from weekly usage to offers etc. But, I noticed other companies were not only getting better reviews but were also offering better rates, which in the fall of 2012 were almost always dominated by Bounce. But, again in the Spring 2014, I gave Bounce the benefit of the doubt and long story short, I renewed with Bounce and took a 24 month plan Spring 2014. At their constant urging, I enrolled in 'auto-pay'. Between my wife and me, we have 5 BOA accounts and recently BOA sent me a new card on one of my accounts with the caveat that unusual activity has taken place and I should activate the new card in place of the other one -- and to BOA's credit, they called me almost daily saying I needed to activate the new card. Turns out it was the card that Bounce has on file for 'auto-pay' and once I activated the replacement card - BOA cancelled the old card. The cancellation phase passed over a long weekend and the Bounce 'auto' payment was not collected. The company (Bounce) that bombards me constantly with emails (their touted 'customer account management software'), did NOT send an email indicating anything about a non-payment, overdue payment -- nada, zip, nothing! In fact, I eventually received a phone call from an unknown '877' phone # - 5 days after the 'uncollected' due date from Bounce 'collections' with a message to call. It was interesting I got an American-sounding human very quickly when the 'collections' dept. was called, but other Bounce # take me into customer purgatory hold (which I honestly thought was different about Bounce in the fall of '12)! So once called, still not knowing about the BOA 'auto-pay' issue, the Bounce collection woman,'Yolanda' was at first a scripted robot-like rep, asking me multiple questions (account #, address, name, etc) before finally my last 4 digits of my SS#, which she said didn't match and she couldn't continue. "Really!? After 18 months, do you not have another security question you can ask?" After putting me on hold multiple times and literally cutting me which I believe she intentionally did after I ask to speak to a supervisor or someone with the ability to make a decision - which I never spoke to (i called back and to my amazement got 'Yolanda' again) then eventually as I asked 'Yolanda' she became condescending with a smirking tinge while (scriptedly) continually apologized for MY being upset. 'Why are you apologizing for my being upset?" That made no sense! When I asked why I had not rec'd an email (their touted 'customer account management software') about this, she said Bounce didn't do that - that this was my responsibility, even though I pointed out that they send multiple emails (their touted 'customer account management software') a week about everything else. In fact every answer she gave was the same: 'when you signed the agreement... customers' responsibility' I asked her to note in my file and pass along company-wide the fact that a courtesy email about a 'auto-pay' not going through would go along way in the future. She smirked and said 'oh, believe me, every word of this call is going into the files'! I asked is the call being recorded, since she did not state it up front, she curtly said, 'Yes!'. That had NOT been indicated to me! I said. 'You (Bounce) have not offered me one thing for being a loyal customer, have you?' She said, 'no'! I asked, 'will you offer me anything for being a loyal customer? "NO!"I said, do you understand how someone that has been loyal for over 18 months payment-wise, made referrals etc and now is being told that it means actually nothing to this company - feels about this. "It IS the customer's responsibility. I apologize you feel this way!", was her answer... Really!? Conclusion, I am appalled with Bounce Energy, their customer service, collection reps and their touted 'customer account management software'. July 2014 Bounce is NOT the company I signed with in 9/2012. Maybe that's par for the course for new aggressive customer-centered companies that eventually become just a cash-cow with a customer-be-damned policy in the wake! Their rates were much higher in 2014, even for a 24-month locked-in rate, but I was loyal! I gave them the benefit of the doubt, maybe those negative reviews were just hard-to-please bargain hunters, or even shills for other companies, I thought. Well, I don't think that anymore! I know energy companies deal with fuel prices that are constantly in flux and well regulated, but I stayed loyal to Bounce because of the personal service and their touted 'customer account management software'. And, when there were other options, I am now ashamed to say -- I ignored them! Never again! I really, really, really regret renewing with Bounce spring/2014 and not because the prices were not as competitive but the personal service and customer loyalty aspect now means zero to them. Big mistake - on both our parts! As as soon as I can get away from Bounce, I will! Maybe I can't find another company that gives a rip about loyal customers, but I bet I can at least find one, at the same price - if not better that will at the very least be 'different'!... and for me, 'different' will be better than Bounce Energy 7/2014!Fyi, the 'customer account management software' line is from their company blurb at the top of this page!

Bounce Energy Credit
I've had no problems with bounce, I customized my own plan, they processed my order within 24 hours, I'm enrolled in autopay and I haven't been overcharged. They send you weekly emails about your usage and what your estimated monthly bill will be.
I am a current employee at bounce energy
And I Love the service the rate is GREAT ! as well as the benefits that comes with signing out .... checkout more offers and look on bounceenergypromocodes.com to see the promotions we have going on as well
I love the customized plans and promotions
I was comparing prices with other companies and did my research for a good couple of hours. I used to use another energy company with my last apartment, but they would spike my electric bill. I'm trying out this company at the moment, and I've been totally satisfied!
Awesome Savings and Rates - Great rewards program!!!
Recently swithched and couldn't be more happier. Discounts and savings at every corner, I used a promo code and received $50 and for signing up I also received $150 Visa gift card. I'm loving it!!!
Do NOT use Bounce
We received notice that our contract was expired and we needed to sign up for a new plan. None of their plans were good so we went with someone else. Now Bounce is trying to charge us an early termination fee. Their customer service refused to help us. On further inspection of our billing we noticed our charges did not add up. We were supposed to get a guaranteed rate but we did not get it. They also refuse to give us an itemized bill with more detailed information about all of the cryptic charges that pushed our bill up. Bounce uses trick gimmicks and funny billing to trick customers. As for right now I must rate them as a bad brand.
By far the WORST electric company
I moved into my new apartment a year ago and was told by management that I had to sign up with Bounce Energy for my electric. I had the worst customer service experience on the phone just to enroll. The customer service rep on the phone couldn't get any of the enrollment information correct. I had told him that I wanted to enroll in the month to month Thrifty Saver program, and when he had read the contract over the phone, he had said that I was to be enrolled in that plan. Once I was able to access my Bounce Energy account online however, the account was labeled as the Terriific 12 plan. I called Bounce Energy twice regarding this error, and both times the situation could not be fixed. I was told that Bounce Energy would need to access the recording of my enrollment to verify that it was in fact a mistake. I have never heard back from them, despite trying to inquire as to the status of this huge error.
Late Contract
We signed ip with Bounce, 13 months ago. That hooked us in at 7.6 per kwh. Oir first bill was 5 days and we got the discounted price. The next bill came in and it was around $400. They were bills us at a rate of 15.8 kwh. They fixed the issue and gave us the discounted rate and we locked in a 12 month contract in July last year. I remember cause I was visting family in NM. One year contract at 11.8 kwh. Ok, contract set and started. May, this year, we get an email that our contract is almost up and to renew. July is 12 months, contract should be ending. We found a better at 9.8 kwh and less fees and we did it 15 days before the contract ended. We got our bill and they are saying that we STILL expected to pay them a 200 early cancel fee, 15 days really? I called and they told me to contract did start till aug. Wait when i locked into the contract in the begining, they said two days from that day i couldnt cancel without the fee, but THAT WAS JULY. To shorten it, they arent listening, understanding, or much care since we chose to move. They changed my due dates after Id get the bills, random fees, have to wait 20 plus mins to talk to someone and they would much rather paint their nails and talk about weekend fun.
Good program, but rates not competitive
I got a good initial rate and the rewards are good if you keep paying on time, but after two years the rates are two cents higher than the competitive rates on powertochoose dot org so I have to switch. It's a nice service, but not worth a two cent premium. Seriously?
So far so good
I've had Bounce for 3 months. So far I'm very pleased with the company. I did my research when I changed from Texas Power. I wanted a Texas Company and Bounce was my first choice. I'm excited about the bonuses offered. As I pay my bill on time anyway, now I'll get great rewards. I've all ready received the $50 reward for referring someone.
Excellent So Far
Haven't had any issues with them. Switched from TXU to Bounce Energy. Use this code to receive a $50 bill credit. 1607132
Bounce Energy Savings
I've had Bounce for 12 months. I've been reading the negative reviews, and I think sometimes the details are lost in the fine print. They do expect perfect payments, no late payments to be eligible. When I didn't get a reward, I messaged Bounce via facebook and they immediately responded and handled it. Pleased with the rates and the rewards. Overall impressed!

I had been with TXU for 3 years and and with Mega energy before that. While TXU has some great tools for taking control of your energy expenses, their pricing is not competitive. My rates just kept going up! Bounce is competitive and has just as many tools to help you control your energy expenses. And the perks are an added bonus!
Great and steady prices
I've been with Bounce for a couple months now and I really like it. I had reliant before and hated it. After a couple months of paying on time I got $50 off using this friends code.
Best provider for me , so far !
I recently switched from the worst provider in the world (4change) and I`m so so happy with Bounce Energy. Use my fresh referral code (1346812) on sign up or sign up via the link below to get your $50 sign up bonus. I used one and my 1st bill came just $22 !!
Waste of time
I was excited to get the Thrifty Saver Promotional! Shortly after ordering and before move-in, my apartment decided to switch rooms due to renovations. I called Bounce Energy to change the apartment number and was on the phone for my entire 75minute lunch break which got me three "transferred" (I was dropped each time) calls. Frustrated, I called back the next day to be dropped again and placed on two ten minute holds...only to find out that if I wanted to change my apartment number I'd have to order a new service because the one I'd signed up for was no longer available at the same price. Fed up; I ended up cancelling all services. The women I spoke to were all very nice; however, seemed very confused with every question I posed - could've told me the issue in less than ten minutes.
No one EVER answers the customer service phone!
After our 12 month contract, I couldn't wait to switch to any other company. Whenever I called the company, no one would ever answer the phone. Sometimes I would hold for 45 minutes before hanging up without speaking to anyone. We lost power for 4 days in an ice storm, and I still couldn't get an answer to my phone call. We had Champion for 3 years prior to our 1 year with Bounce; I loved Champion, but rates were much higher. Our contract is getting ready to expire, and I've already set up new service with a different provider.
3% back on my bills each month
I love that you can customize your own plan. Great rewards programs and cheap rates-- cant beat it! Happy with their customer service and ease of switching as well. Happy Happy Happy customer!

Great Service and no issues. Used a code and got a great rate and a discount. Whether you want regular or green energy you can find really good rates and no surprises. While I was initially skeptical, I have had no issues what so ever. Very happy customer and hope you will be too.
I've made over $1,000 AWESOME COMPANY !
I made the switch and I am loving it! Good rates, good service, and awesome credits. Use the code and get $50 and then pass it on for more!
Beware
Be sure and look closely for disclaimers. the priority connect fee is not listed and it's $36.00. When I found out I had just connected service and realized it, When I called Customer Service, their response was it was too late and could not be changed or cancelled.
Great customer service, you will not be disappointed
I had Reliant Energy for 2 years. Great company, but figured I could find a cheaper (but reputable) company. The top 2 I found were Bounce Energy & another one (I forgot the name of them) on PowertoChoose. Plus, they have regular rewards, cant beat that!

I switched to bounce energy recently. Unlike other electricity provider, you can customize your own plan and they are cheapest of the lot with many lucrative offers. Online rate is different from what you get if your order over phone. If you are ordering for the service online, save the customized Electricity Facts Lebel (EFL) and make sure you are getting the same rate by calling the customer care. Because in my case they made a mistake and I had to email them the EFL. Also no auto payment information page appeared for me and they had to set it up manually.Nevertheless I got the promise that I would get the same rate what I customized for. Although my online account shows the corrected rate, the EFL is still not corrected. Also make sure to choose Bouncy energy rewards program because you start getting them from six months onwards. If you take 3% discount offer, thats going to happens form 12 months onwards. So if you are choosing for shorter time frame, go for bounce energy rewards. Customer care responds well to your complaints but probably their higher authorities take longer time to react as it happened in my case (no correction in EFL although online account shoeing corrected rate). Another important drawback they have, is, they do not give you your weekly usage. Overall its a cheapest one and they give lots of lucrative offers.
I made the switch and am very satisfied!
I switched from StarTex due to holding for 20 minutes just trying to renew my plan, then they offered me one of the highest rates available so I decided to shop around. Bounce energy gave the lowest rates with the option to have a month to month contract with no commitment! Make the switch I promise you won't regret it!
THE BEST DEAL!!!
I have a locked in rate at 9.9/Kw. My husband and I barely use 500kw and we pay some where around $40 bucks for energy; and they have great deals with customer promotions. I got $75 bill credit on my account just using a promo code. They are very helpful and have great customer service.
Refreshing new approach to electric home service.
This is new way to shop for electric service in Texas. You now have the choice of a fixed plan from 11 to 36 months and anywhere in between. Use there web page and check every month because it's different depending on how many months you want to lock a rate in and they have great promotions and gifts. Use promo code 1597439 to receive a 50$ dollar bill credit. They are definitely worth a look. I chose the 15 month plan at 9.6 cents per KHW and dumped Startex power were customer service has disappeared.
FIVE BLUBS (STARS)!!
EARNED $50 OFF MY FIRST BILL!! Who doesn't want to earn rewards while they are using electricity?!?!?! You have to pay an electric bill regardless! I switched from TXU and am SO HAPPY with Bounce Energy!
Awesome Reward Program! Use this promo code 1594135 to get $50 bill credit!
I paid too much with other companies. I am so glad I switched over to Bounce Energy!
Bait and Nothing
I've never received the bill credits of $50 for paying my bill on time and $25 for signing for a second year. I believed these to be real dollar credits. When I finally got through to Customer Service after interminable waits, I was told it was $50 for a Resturant.com card and it would take 4-6 weeks to receive. Well, six weeks later and still nothing. This does not surprise me. New renewal this year.
Excellent service! Received $100 discount too
Love it so far! No issues with billing, customer service or payments, and awesome rewards! We have been quite happy with Bounce Energy! We also saved $100 on our first bill.

My plan is exactly as Bounce promised. No hidden fees or misleading rates. I even got a discount when signing up. I have been with bounce now for 6 months now and kept waiting for some unwelcome surprise but the great experience continues. I have been with a number of other companies and would not hesitate to recommend bounce.
GREAT REWARDS!!
I've been searching for service and checked different companies. BY FAR they have the best rates AND SUPER AMAZING rewards. Trust me I'm very happy with the decision.
Just Enrolled!
They were very helpful! I was with Ambit energy before and they charged me $10 extra just for using less than 1000kw.With bounce my locked rate is 9.9/kw. :D

I can't believe that I'd never considered switching before... until I looked into the details of my current provider (Green Mtn) who I'd used for the past 8 years. I NEVER had any problems AT ALL with GM, but I was startled to see that they were WAY overpriced!! My bad for not looking into the details sooner. The switch was easy and painless. DO IT!
The Cheapest Thus Far NO Gimmikks!!
I lived in Austin for years you could not choose your electric company the prices are high in the summer due to the TX heat! I moved to Killeen and did a lot of research on the prices and company's Bounce delivered!! Not only are they the Cheapest rates there are no hidden fees and the rewards are Outstanding!! I got a $25 gift card for signing up on line I was able to choose my own plan and I used a promo code and after 3 on time payments $50.00 was knocked off my bill as promised!! Once you sign up you will be given your own promo code to give out and earn $50.00 again!! Awesome company and incenitives!!
Bounce is Cheapest and Easiest to Work With
I've been with Bounce Energy since December 2012. I've never had trouble with them. The one time I had a question about a reward (discounts or gift cards which they give frequently), they responded quickly and answered my question well. Also, I just visited powertochoosedotorg. The best 3 prices are at 8 cents. Bounce has me at 5 cents. Price can't be beat.Nathon H.Weatherford (west of Fort Worth), TX
We Switched and Its Great! Use Code: 1574566 for a additional $50.00 bill credit
We couldn't be happier and they offered us the cheapest rate. We locked in our rate for 12 months, picked the e-billing option, yes to auto pay, no thanks on green. Plus we got a $25 bill credit at sign-up, a $50 credit after our first 3 months, quarterly rewards and the referral bonus is great. Use this code and give it to your friends 1574566 we lowered our electricity bill and earned $50!! Sign-up-today! Great Company. As for the negative reviews about not receiving the bill credits and late fees just make sure you make your payments on time EVERY month. Also customer service does take a few minutes before you can talk to someone. Very happy customer so far!! Thanks to the rewards program and cheaper rates we are saving about $200 a year. I highly recommend using this company.
New Customer!
I am a new customer and am impressed with the service. The customer service is great and they go out of their way to try to please you. Earn rewards while getting a trusted source of energy
Happy I switched to Bounce and ditched TXU!
Billing and Account Management: 5Customer Service: 5How likely I am to recommend: 5Order experience: 5Price Plans and Promotions: 4 Price is excellent (5), Plan is excellent (5), Promotions (2) I have been responsible for several friends and co-workers changing to Bounce. I did not follow the procedures set for referrals and missed out on the bonus reward . . . their win, my loss! This irritated me but not enough to go back to TXU.
BEST ELECTRIC COMPANY EVER!
I'm not sure what everyone else is talking about because I've been with Bounce since December and I've already earned enough bill credits to not pay my bill for the next two months. Yea they started charging encor fees directly to the consumer i.e. higher bills but they really give you every opportunity to "earn" your electricity. I'm in college and I'm completely happy with not having to pay my bill, I cannot express how much this is not a joke. Sounds to good to be true? Your wrong. Oh and I get free movie tickets and a gift card if I pay my next few payments, which as I explained before, are being taken care of by the giant bill credit I earned. So free move tickets+free electricity+gift cards? You seriously cannot get any better than that. blah blaah blah....random words to prove I don't work for the company,,,,schillzerholzen boobootoad sasha fiante OH! and $50 bill credit if/when you sign upJust put in the code:1549646
I got the discount with code 1573854
The girl that I spoke with on the phone was very helpful, but I ended up signing up online with the "build your own" plan. The reviews for Bounce were very good, and I have high hopes that they will be a great provider. I value customer service, and that was a major part of my decision.
$50.00 Promo Code 1573747
Very easy to sign up for 3 months to 36 months. I signed up for 5 months for a rate of 9.3 cents February 11th. The promo code gets you $50.00 and the person that you use so Pick me Pick me!
Billing
Just started our new relationship 10/13 with bounce energy. I must say that for two people that are away from home Monday through Saturday 160 or 171 a month. My electric bills are super high regardless of the low locked rate of 8.7 not to mention the ONCOR fees are terrible. My neighbors electric bills when compared they have a higher rate and are a family of 5 and and there is always some there using up electricity and there bills range 80 to 120 a month and no where in there bill do I see an oncor fee.
Review
I would recommend Bounce to everyone looking for a new energy company that wont rip you off. I recently switched from Ambitt.My bill has gone down dramatically and their are no hidden fees that are tacked on every month as in most companies. used the promotional code of 1573216 when i placed order and received $50.00 off my first bill.
Very happy I made the switch to Bounce Energy! $50 credit with promo code:1572239
With various rewards program including rewards for paying on-time every month, discounts for auto-pay/e-billing plus the ability to play with the build your own calculator to find their cheapest rate switching from Reliant Energy was a no brainer. I locked in a 15 month rate that was 20% cheaper than Reliant's best un-published plan. I picked e-billing option, auto pay, no thanks on Green and a 15 month fixed rate was the winning combo for me. Plus I got a $25 visa gift card at sign-up, quarterly rewards and a $50 credit after my first three months. Thanks to the rewards program and cheaper rates I'm saving about $250/year over Reliant Energy. The only downside is I usually have to wait a few minutes before I can talk to someone. They should improve that a bit. I highly suggest you make the switch to Bounce Energy and you won't regret it!
High billing every month, bad customer service
I'll not recommend Bounce:
1. High bill every month and
2. Customer service was not good
Very happy
I have been with bounce now for 5 months and had a great experience. I switched to them when another provider jacked up my rate. My plan is exactly as Bounce promised and I even got a discount when signing up. I have called customer service on 3 occasions and never waited more than 2 minutes and each time they answered my question or resolved the concern. I have been with a number of other companies and no comparison.
Terrible experience
Been with the company 18 months, my bill shot from (150-200is to high 500s. This was Nov 200, Dec 530, Jan 580. Really?! I can take +_ 30 or but double almost triple. Shopping for another provider

Billing Issues
I had bounce energy for year and When I moved out of my apartment on bay point apartments in ennis joslin rd corpus christi TX, I called them and could not get hold of any one, so I left a voicemail saying I am moving out and to disconnect the service, and a week after I called them they said new tenant went with a new provider and forced move out fee applied to my account, I also called three days in a row during the week after move out, but no one called me back at all. Their customer service is worst, I had to argue with about the fee, but No use, usual hold times of their customer service is 10 minutes, also I had billing issues they over charged me several times and they still did not adjust my account, Please dont go with themSurendra
Great service with cool rewards for paying bill on time
Sign-up-today for Bounce Energy and get low rates great rewards and a referral bouns!!!No complaints with bounce.
DO NOT trust into Bounce Energy!
First, DO NOT trust into their Rewards. My friend referred my to Bounce, but after 2 month I have not got the $50 reward. It is a big scam. I will not satisfy with Bounce and will not recommend to anyone.
Second, Bounce advertised 12 month plan with 9.5 fix rate. But I got a bill that was added. I can not trust to Bounce Energy any more. Now I have to pay 12.5 ¢ / kWh.
Best find
So glad i found this company!
Great company!
I have been with bounce now for about 3 months and they have been the best electricity provider I have had by far. I have been at least 4 others and no comparison. The last provider couldn't figure out why I left when they jacked my rate so high after the initial contract and wouldn't offer anything competitive. I talked with others who had renewed with Bounce and got a very different story. Very happy with the service so far.
Never had a problem, but----
I've never had any issues with Bounce. I have no company loyalty, and simply chose them because it was the lowest price when I was moving into my apartment back in February 2013. I got a 12 month 5.4c KwH plan at the time (Which is pretty decent from what I've seen). I never had any late payments, and the reward system for this is okay... but to be honest, you don't really notice it as much of a benefit or perk because they're pretty insignificant and the price to have electricity in the first place overshadows them. And as for the other promotions they throw at you throughout the year, I didn't see any of the cost savings reflected in my bills, so there's no way to know if it even had any effect.You get a monthly usage report with estimated cost of service, and some newsletters on what you can do to save electricity which is convenient I suppose. I've never had to deal with customer service, so I can comment on whether or not it's any good. I decided to go ahead and leave this review, because it's now time for renewal, and the KwH rate is double what I signed up for in the beginning. So it's time to go Electric company shopping again to see if I can get a better deal somewhere else, and another lucky hand of not having any billing issues...If you're looking for an electric company, and you're reading this... it just seems to be the luck of the draw and getting the service at the right time of the year when the rates are lowest. In the end, they're all just big corporations with shareholders who want more money so they can buy another beach house they'll never visit. Just shop until you find a low rate, without a bunch of gargantuan hidden fees and taxes.
Had my issues, but love the rewards
Like I've seen on some other reviews here & on other sites, there are a decent number of issues that come with using Bounce. I've never had billing issues, so I can't speak to those. The only issues I've had have involved claiming rewards. A couple of times I was in line for a reward & chose a gift card. Apparently gift cards are handled by a third party and there must have been a breakdown in getting my info to them. I did have to call customer service to get this fixed & while it took a few tries, I was never on hold for an unreasonable amount of time - probably 5 minutes max. In the end I said screw the gift card & took the $50 bill credit instead. All in all, I got $50 just for paying my bill on time. Yea there was a little more hassle than I would've liked, but I can suck it up for free money.
The rewards are a really nice perk though. So far I've gotten 2 $50 referral credits (one for using someone elses referral & one for referring a friend), 2 movie tickets from Fandango, a $50 bill credit for 12 on time payments (this is where I had the gift card issue), a $15 Walmart gift card & a free month of energy for 24 on time payments (they take your 2 year average, so this came out to about $75 for me). All in all, it's about $260 in rewards over two years.
There are some hassles, but nothing's hassle free.
If you are signing up for Bounce, use this link to get a $50 bill credit on your first bill. Best way to start with a new company!!
Refer is a friend is worth it! Use code 1548369
So far I am happy with the service! I like the incentives provided! I used someone's code online, and will refer my friends and family as well. There was an error made to my account, and was quickly fixed by a representative!
Promotional Scams and lieing customer service
1st off, get everything in email or writing from this company. Their customer service does not stand by what they say. On multiple occasions, they have lied to make me get off the phone or talk to their supervisor. e.g. "Oh, we found your missing Promo and will be applied in next month cycle." and it never shows up in system.
Now the review and my personal experience:
During my 1st enrollment my $50 joining Promotion disappeared.
During my 1st enrollment my $50 refer a friend bill credit was denied on the basis that 1st payment was late, even after my bank confirmed that they actually issued the check for 1st payment to reach Bounce on 7/26 and due date was 7/28 and delay was from Bounce side. ( I have been using Bill Pay with my Bank for over 10 years and never had late payment or missed dates.)
I had called customer service after 1st enrollment to confirm both the above rewards.
My 1st plan was 7 month custom plan with No early termination fees. (I can still pull that up from my plan details. But I was charged $150 early termination fees.)
I rejoined as Bounce was offering $50 as "Come Back" promo and $75 as another Promo code (1409143). I again, do not see those in my Promotion.
Looks like Bounce is running the scam in terms of promotions.
AA miles program is ripoff
The Bounce website states 1 mile for $1 spent but doesn't state that there is a 200 mile maximum fir each month. Also it states that the miles will be posted monthly but we have had the service for 6 months and have only received 200 miles of our 1200 plus miles!
Has been great so far. You can also save $50 on signing up. Use promo code: 1527741
I am new to Bounce Energy and so far, I love it! Great customer service, no problems with billing or payments, and awesome rewards! I have been very happy with them so far. You can also save $50 off on signing up by using a promo code.

I had a bad experience with my previous provider, they ripped me off as soon as the contract expired. I switched to bounce energy and got a better rate plus I got bill credits for using a signup code. Happy customer so far!
Best provider so far
I've had the best service from Bounce compared to all other providers. I love they fact they send a weekly usage report to let me know if the amount of energy being used in my house is going up, down, or staying the same. That helps me prepare for the budget and monthly bill. I also love the fact I can earn American Airlines rewards when paying my bill and had other cool promotions to choose.I used a referral code to get a $50 bill credit when signing up and love the fact they find ways to help cut your bill. Feel free to use my link for a $50 credit! If you are skeptical, build your own plan from any where to 1 month up to how much you feel comfortable with. I started with a 4 month plan and will be renewing after no having a LONG TERM test drive that many other companies scammed me into.
Horrible service, everything about Bounce is horrible
My card expired on 1st of the month and bill was due on 5th. They did not even email me that there was a problem with payment they just disconnected my service on 6th at 5 in the morning! Guess the bill amount was 77$ only. I had 16 straight months of on time payment record but they din't think twice that there must be some genuine error.i had even enjoyed the on time payment reward. The customer service was deplorable the agent was insensitive. I have never ever seen such rude and rash treatment. I live in apartment and I am completely dependent on electricity. It took them 2 hours to reconnect after payment processing. I could not even heat milk for my kids had to go to sis's place immediately. Beware!
ITS AN OK COMPANY
IM SINGLE AND SWITCH TO THIS COMPANY... ITS OK .. NOT THE GREATEST NOT THE WORST IT JUST GETS YOU A FAIR BILL
11 months happy, but will be looking to switch this month
I was really happy with my 12 month fixed rate when I signed up. I found their balanced billing right on, easy payment through website and customer service exceptional. Now it is time for me to renew, expires 12/9/13 and I cannot find a plan on their website that compares to what I currently have. The only thing close would be the 8 month, but it is still higher and it will expire in the midst of the summer heat in TX. Not going to take those chances, so I will be looking to switch to another company. Up until now, I have recommended them to all of my friends, but not so sure, since the renewal prices are so much higher than a year ago.
I am new to Bounce Energy and so far,
I am new to Bounce Energy and so far, I love it! Great customer service, no problems with billing or payments, and awesome rewards! I'm not sure why all the bad reviews, but I have been very happy with them! I also saved $100 on my first bill by using a promo code.
Switch and Save!
I switched to Bounce after my other company doubled my rate as soon as the contract expired. Got a much lower rate with bounce then the fixed rate I had previously. Used a code and got a credit.
Rewards are Bait and Switch
I signed up for a promotional rate. After the first month they bumped the rate to "market rates" that were 70% higher than any rate I'd pay with any other company. I stuck it out because, due to a refer a friend promotion, there was a $50 bill credit after three months of on time payments.
Ha ha! After three months, I called to let them know I was switching. No problem, said the rep, the credit would appear on the final bill. The final bill arrived without the credit. When I called, they explained that the terms and conditions say the credit cannot be applied to the final bill.
Bounce has deceptive promotional offers and rewards.
Use this code 1539780.
Choose an option with $25 credit or gift card. You can find it on their site or one some of these referral sites. This combined with their rewards program 3% cash back can save you more than TriEagleEnergy's slightly lower rate even if you fall in a lower usage range. Great experience so far!!!
Great Rewards
Great RewardsThey have low rates and give you great rewards for paying on time!
Horrible,Horrible,Horrible,horrible and Horrible!
Horrible rewards,Horrible customer service,Horrible with email and just a bad company to deal with.
Dinner rewards refused from restaurants and the others are a joke. you can save money at other providers.
Ask them to send you anything they say in writing and they will not.
They make money on your penalty and returned payment
When I got my first bill, there is a fee named returned payment cost $25. I called their customer service, which usually need 30 mins to get through, no one told me what that cost for. They just told me gonna call me back, but 1 month past, negative. When I received my second bill, I found returned payment and late pay penalty. I was so weird, because I payed on 17 Sep, 3 days before due day. Then I found they return my payment on 30 Sep, and 1 day later, they charged penalty. Their customer service told me returned payment is a fee that I submitted wrong bank information, so for the 2 bill, they did not collect any money. But I checked twice before submitting bank information, and even I submitted the wrong information, why they do not send me a email told me. Then at least I can check my information when I pay the second bill instead of using the information saved in my account. I believe they really do not want you pay successfully, because they make money on those fee. I got $130 on my second bill, but the return payment and penalty was $50, a big money.
Beside that, think about their service. When I argued with their customer service, a women called supervisor came out, and told me pay the money or I will hang off. Yes, I want to pay the money, but the correct number, not any number you said. She just pushed me, pay or we will disconnect your service. That what they called service.
I even do not believe their meter. In the first month, I used more than 790 KWH(1b1b apartment). Then next money, I turned off my air condition and hot water heater. Guess what? I still used more than 500 KWH.
Deceptive Rate
I thought I was going to get a good rate when going with bounce, but it was so much higher because they split out centerpoints fees. So I signed up for an 11.3 cents/kwh rate - thinking my bill would be more or less my kwh usage * 11.3 cents. Wrong. They added Centerpoint Fees as a separate line item to the bill, taking my price per kwh from 11.3 to 15.8 (they even noted it was 15.8). I switched to V247 as soon as I could and they do no such thing - the centerpoint fees did not exist or were included in the LOWER rate (9.4). V247 bills me as expected, usage kwh * 9.4cents... plus a couple bucks in small taxes. How are we supposed to know if a company is going to do this or not??
Please Beware- Horrendous Customer Service
We decided to use Bounce Energy when we moved into our new home a year ago. We chose Bounce Energy specifically for the customer service reviews. Shortly after we moved it, we had some electrical work done on our house. Bounce Energy notified Oncor, their parent company, that we had "tampered with the meter" and sent us a notification in the mail. They also took the liberty to put these huge locks on our meter base. It took two months to find out what had happened (our electrician accidentally put the meter face in upside down... oops!) and over six months for the issue to be resolved with the HORRIBLE customer service we experienced. I literally began calling every day (to the point where they knew me by name), threatened to get a lawyer, and within two weeks it was "resolved". We still have not received the bill they promised and we still have those lovely locks on our meter base-- but the company says we're in "the clear" and Oncor will not take the locks off until we have to have electrical work done on the house. Long story short, we took responsibility, but Bounce and Oncor took over 8 months to fight with each other. It was very stressful. We are excellent customers-- we have never been late on payment, we took responsibility for wrongdoing, etc.-- and we still got hosed in the end. We will be switching companies.

Ripped off Bounce Energy
Bounce energy Thrifty Saver promotional offered a lower rate which prompted for a sign up.. Though it mentions the rate changes after the first billing cycle to standard rates, I did not expect the first billing cycle to hit after 4 days of signing up.. The next month, the bill amount went more than double of my average as according to Bounce energy, the rates changed after first billing cycle (4 days in my case) after signing up and Bounce energy has the sole discretion to change the rates, any time they want after the promotional period is over(first billing cycle).. Switched the supply to another provider and get another bill from bounce energy for 3 days( from last meter read to day I switched).. Bill contains another addition $10 since the usage of 3 days in below 1000 Kwh.. Absolute rip off.. Completely cheating customers in the name of promotional offer!!!!
Horible Customer Service
I called them up and seems like all they have is a piece of paper in front them to read the answers from. The do no have any desire to help or provide information.
I called to switch to them, but it seems like i will find some other provider.

Terrible experience. Bait and switch rates
This company has been a nightmare. Original rates were very tempting. Service was fine until I suddenly started getting emails stating that my account was in collection due to a past due balance of $0. I called immediately and was told that I owed $477...three times my normal bill for a house that had been empty for a month. No amount of politeness or reason will get them to explain why my rate tripled or why I was never invoiced. Avoid.
Frustrating
I picked Bounce over 4 years ago and thought they were cool. They were until the lights went out or you need to get in touch with them after 5 pm.
At first I got movie tickets for being a good customer and a special # to call for talking about my bill and it gave me contact with a real person,
BUT, I have since noticed that when I pay my bill with my bank bill pay, the check NEVER gets to the desk on time! It's taken 13 days for a check to show up when others receive theirs in 2 days at most.
I called them on it and then the bills starting to be credited in time, but I lost my good customer rewards because of late payments! They didn't post checks until after due date even though my bank account displayed it as being paid 3 days after being sent!
So, I decided to put their due date on my calendar and I called them on that date to make the payment by my debit card. That worked.
Then I bought another house and moved. I took Bounce with me because all the choices get confusing.
It has been soooooooooooooooo frustrating with them.
$20.00 disconnect notice, $19.88 late payment! I won't pay.
Today, I told the guy that if we couldn't work something out, I was switching and I am.
I told them I had been dealing with them for four years and perhaps it was time to work something out about the invoicing.
After I explained that I would have to change if I could not talk with a decision maker, he told me to have a good day.
That's it, I'm switching.
Will Get Your Money Anyway Possible
If you do not pay your bill within 48 hours of due date, Bounce adds 20.00 to your bill and a late fee. You figure it out.
Bounce Energy - My opinion after 5 months, Great!
I have used bounce energy for a little over 5 months now and I have been recommending them to friends and family. Customer service can be busy by phone, I called once because I had questions about the refer a friend credits. I've earned a few hundred dollars by referring friends. No one has been angry with me, yet. So hopefully it will stay all positive. I've got a great rate and enjoy earning prizes and whatnot. They have a great website and provide weekly updates on your bill and you can always log in and see how much electricity you are using.
Awesome
SAVED $75 on first bill!!! With the refer-a-friend program.
I am new to Bounce Energy and so far, I love it! Great customer service, no problems with billing or payments, and awesome rewards! I'm not sure why all the bad reviews, but I have been very happy with them!
Terrible Payment Options
I HATE Bounce energy - and it's really only because of their payment options.
I like to have control over the money in my account. I have as little as possible set-up as auto-pay. I'm not going to set up a fluctuating bill to be auto-drafted from my account. However, if I want to pay anywhere NEAR the due date (not the date the invoice is received), I either have to use their auto-pay (actually, I don't think they draft it close to the due date) OR I have to set up some sort of reminder to log into their system to set up payment. When I tried to use my bank's bill pay, it arrived late each time (until I started sending it in up to 10 days in advance) DESPITE my bank sending in time to be on time. I have NEVER had a problem with my bank's bill pay not getting a payment in on time. So, even when my bank send the check five days in advance, somehow, it wasn't getting to their accounting department until it was nearly five days late. Interesting....
I will be switching ASAP. PLEASE get actual decent payment options - allow me to set up a payment in advance on your payment site. My MUD and water bill can be done this way - why not a big electricity company?
Over Priced Cheats
They tripled my energy rate in one month, after I signed with them for the month to month deal. I called they to ask what would my next month KPH be they said it would be rated at the average usage for Texas and the Gas company they get their feed from, well that was good because it hadn't gone up at all according to the papers. But the very next month the raised by KPH from 5.8 to 15.2. This is triple the amount that i was quoted... Watch them carefully if your dumb enough to sign with them in the first place. I was......
Pathetic service. dont use this energy at all
I was referred by one of my friend to BounceEnergy. The time I took this energy, bounce was giving credit of $75 to both me & my friend as I was new customer. According to Bounce energy rules.. My friend will get the credit of $75 after I pay my first bill and I will get the credit of $75 after I make 3 ontime payments.
After so many follow-ups my friend received credit of $75 and that too after I paid 4 bills ontime, but I still havent received any credit.
Till now I have paid 5 bills all on-time and still I havent received any credit of $75. Everytime I call up the customer service they inform me that $75 credit will be adjusted/credited in my next months bills, they have been saying this after I paid my 3 bills.
Yesterday again I called up the customer service and this time they again said you will get the credit in next months bill, but the credit that you will get is $50 and not $75. I asked them reason for that, for the person replied they have got this reply from HeadOffice and this is Final and he cannot do anything on that and I will never receive $75 credit, though everywhere on my account notes have been added that I am supposed to get $75 credit and also my friend even got $75 credit.
This bounce energy customer service is very Pathetic and dont even care for what they commit to the customers. I have wasted lot of time chasing them and fighting them over the phone for my $75 credit.
Don't ever take this energy. I am not at all happy taking this energy.
Great service with cool rewards for paying bill on time
No complaints with bounce.
Big Bounce
Signed up for the Bounce "Teriffic 12" . It was fine for the term although all I ever got was a set of movie ticket awards. I'd hardly call the trade off a "reward" so I turned around and signed up for the airline miles but it really hasn't been building. I have more on my own from work. As the 12-month plan ended I went online to look at my options but ended up renewing to save the hastle for a few cent's more only my statements became out of control. Upon review it was discovred there was a "glitch" that locked my rate online but not in billing. I was able to prove confirmation of the rate lock and obtain a few refunds. However, I wonder how many other customers they took advantage with the same system "glitch" and if the TX Attorny General knows about these "overbilling issues" to their advantage. After the 2nd term expired I tried to reach someone for a decent rate but they didn't want to offer me a plan and no one ever returned my emails. For this, I recognize how unimportant I am to them as a customer. I'm taking my buisness somewhere else. If you try them for a short period, be sure you find a new carrier before your term ends and RUN!!. I have a small 2 bdrm apt. I rarely use my A/C or heat in Spring or Fall. The A/C is kept at 80-85 degrees or higher in summer. Nor do I cook a lot or drain the small hotwater heater. None-the-less, my already crazy electric bill was $155 last month (jJuly'13) and $314 for this one ( Aug'13). Yes, it more than doubled! There's no other way to describe the current situaton except for "highway robbery"! The statement indicates my existing rate is ~now a "Super Saver" @ 11.8 cents/k/Wh but that my "average price pd" = ~15.5 cents k/Wh. Not sure about you but that doesn't sound "super" or a "saver". It means my rates actually did nearly double. Ouch!
Best Electricity Company!!!!
Bounce Energy Best Offer I have been using Bounce energy for a year. Good service. I switched from Startex to Bounce Energy a couple of years ago. Bounce has great low rates, excellent customer service and I receive rewards just for paying my bills. So far I have earned a $1250 bill credits. Bounce Energy is AWESOME!!!!!!
Go for it!
I love the fact you can choose you own plan for Bounce. Customer service is prompt to reply. You receive a variety of incentives for being a bounce customer. American Airline miles, cash credit, movie tickets, etc. I don't feel like they upcharge their service for these, but others may not feel the same. I have a non-sense bill and don't see any hidden charges in it. Some other companies I used in the past took advantage of this, but I don't see it from Bounce. The great thing is you can do a short term contract with bounce on your own terms, and then lock in longer if you like or find another choice.
Home Owner
Do not belive any thing what they promise on phone conversation, they will sign you up their choice of plan eventhough you specifiy them which plan you wants it. very bad practice to trape people in high rate plan and not willing to rersolve anything at all.
Bounce Energy misleading promotions and horrible customer service
I started using Bounce Energy is April 2013, I enjoyed logging in to their online site, When I received the 3rd bill I noticed that it said I had not selected an award program. I called to ask about getting my desired reward program. The first day I had no luck. Longer than normal call volume. Their web site said wait time was around 4 minutes, but for me after a much longer time it hung up on me, and the 2nd and 3rd calls were aborted after exceeding my patience. The next day I called and spoke with Denisha at Corporate, she claimed to be a supervisor of customer service. I told her my situation and she said that Bounce Energy can see every email that I have received and they can see which ones I've opened. She then said that I never received a confirmation about the reward program, so there was nothing they could do for me, but sign my up for this day forward, losing my credit up to that time.First, I was shocked at her/their reaction to this request. I rewards program such as theirs is usually used by companies to promote loyalty, to promote timely payment. After asking to speak to someone above her, and arguing my point, I was told they would do me the favor of giving me my credit on the program.After this, I logged on and noticed on their website, I was still not enrolled in any savings program.I think this company has a beautiful look, website, but their heart just isn't in it for true customer service. From my phone experiences with them, I don't think they understand what that is.
Dont Use Bounce EVER
They had great rates which is why I went with them. I paid the extra fee's for rush set up and activation. They still took several days to turn on the power. So several days in the Texas summer with NO power is not a fun experience. When I thought this was the month to renew they said it was the month before so they doubled our rate!! Don't use these people unless you want to get ripped off!
Worst experience, even worse service!!!!
I moved into my apartment in May 2013. I've not had to set up services, or deal with an apartment since 1990s. The apartment screwed up, forcing us to move into a different apartment. They agreed to an arrangement in which, they moved us into a different apt on the agreed move in date. Because I had ordered the electricity service before they told me about their screw up, they said to just pay the electricity while the renovations were done to the apt and we could move in after. No change would be needed. We decided to stay in the apartment they "bait and switched" us into, so I called bounce to have them change the service. They told me I would no longer be eligible for the mommy rewards program, they'd have to end service and start a new service contract, then they told me the rates would go from $0.09 to $0.14/kwh!!!! Knowing I could find a better deal (and less wait time holding to speak to a rep) I told them not to do anything. I called around and about two weeks later, called bounce back to inquire about a bill for the same month of service I had just paid on. They said it was to terminate services (since I didn't call them back inside of ten days) and that the charges were for the period of service (again, I had just paid on). The rep NEVER said they'd terminate services if they didn't hear back, not within any given timeframe. I had told her to keep the services on until I called back. When I finally had the third rep explain to me they had screwed up their billing cycles (sending me two bills instead of one) she said she couldn't change the services to the original rate and they wouldn't budge. These people are only here for your money. They really don't care about you or working with you to get a third party's screw up corrected.
Best Electricity Company!!!!
I switched from StarTex Power to Bounce Energy a couple of years ago. Bounce has great low rates, excellent customer service and I receive rewards just for paying my bills. So far I have earned a $50 and $100 bill credits. Bounce Energy is AWESOME!!!!!!
Do What They Say
I signed up for Bounce 6 months ago; easy process. Used someone's Refer A Friend code and got $50 credit (so did they). Just got a $25 Visa gift card for paying on time for 3 months; I use autodraft with my bank. And just got another 2 movie tickets for my 6 month of on time paying.
I haven't had to contact customer service because it's been so smooth.
Perfect
Top to bottom, great company!!!!
Very disappointed
Very disappointed with customer service, was on the phone for almost one hour and all that they could do for me was offer me a $25 credit after my bill practically doubled. Do admit that I was at fault and since did not select a service plan, they conveniently placed me on plan that was charging me .15-.16 per kilowatt, only good thing about it is I have no contract so I am free to change providers.
TERRIBLE Experience with customer service!
I had a terrible time with Bounce Energy!I did my research and found that this was the highest rated electric company in Texas. I was even more gung-ho when I found out about the rewards programs.I immediately got online and started an order for my electricity but after the credit check it was going to be a $250 deposit. I was bummed about the dollar amount but thought that it was ok because I don't have any utility history. (I later found out that $250 is 150% more than a deposit I would pay at another company... that's ridiculous!) So, I saved the order and I couldn't find anywhere how long I had to pay my deposit, so I called. The customer service representative had no idea, put me on hold for about 10 minutes, and came back and said I had until the date I chose to start the service. (that gave me 16 days to decide) I then called 11 days later (after receiving an email that said I had 7 more days to complete my order) I was told that my rate would go from 9.7 to 10.3 because I had waited more than 'the 10 days grace period'. I had no idea there was a 10 day period. It wasn't ANYWHERE on the terms of service, EFL, or the Rights as a customer. That's why I called in the first place and was told I had longer.So I asked if they could change it back to 9.7 because of the misunderstanding. They said they had no control over that and can't change it. So I asked if they could reduce the deposit because of the misunderstanding and they wouldn't budge. I was so irritated at that point that I hung up and started looking at other companies. I ended up with a better rate (9.3) and ZERO deposit at Direct Energy. Not to mention much much better customer service!I don't know if this was a rare situation, but I talked to multiple people over multiple days and the entire customer service experience was extremely frustrating!
Low Rates, High Frustration
For three months in a row they have not been able to straighten out our Auto Pay with them.
We receive disconnect notices in the mail every month and pay them. But, for the last two months our bank account has been credited with the payment but they still disconnect. Waited for 83 minutes to talk to a representative. Extremely long hold times for a live person.
Say one thing and do another
Bounce energy is a ok company. Until you decide to move to another company. If you put a deposit down they WILL NOT return it to you when stated (4 to 6) weeks. After being with them for some years iI have had some issues BUT this takes the cake. Its been 7 weeks and still nothing. Now they are saying 2 more weeks. PATHETIC
Why do they give a customer service number that will not answer?
Unless you live to be 124 years old, you will not live long enough to have a customer service rep. Answer the phone.
ERA
Got one referral, a free month after several months of on time payments - good deal
HORRIBLE SERVICE!
Save yourself the hassle and use another company. I have been a customer for 2 years and the service is horrible. Countless phone calls (I've literally spent hours on the phone) and emails to Supervisors, who don't respond, about my paperless bill not being sent. I have literally be dealing with this paperless billing issue for AN ENTIRE YEAR! They draft my bank account but don't send me the bill. It also took 3 months and countless emails/calls to get my 6 month reward. I filed a complaint with the BBB and Bounce's Director of Cust. Svc. responded by saying that I should have called them again if I still wasn't getting my bill. Who does that?!?! This is by far the WORST SERVICE I've ever received! My contract ends next month and I will not be renewing.
Couldn't even get an answer to sign up!
After waiting more than 10 minutes on hold, customer service rep made 3 smart comments when I asked questions (which I had to repeat 2 times each). All their rates are based on 2,000kwh, and adjust upward for every decrease of 100kwh. My house is 6,000sq ft and I've only gone over 2,000kwh in 4 out of the last 36months! Fixed rate plan this is not, and they could use some more respectful and friendly phone agents!

An electric company who "gets it"
Firstly, nobody gets excited about electricity. It's a commodity, one guy's is functionally the same as another. The difference then is how the OTHER stuff works. Is it easy to pay my bill, easy to order, are they NICE?
Well, dealing with Bounce Energy all that is YES. They have an app for my Android phone, they respond on Facebook like they're actual people, not marketing robots. Plus they make an effort to educate about your usage every way possible. I get emails charting my use and how it compares to historical use.
Add to that rewards (I've been with them for over 4 years so I've achieved VIP status gaining me permanent 3% off) and your actual cost is going to be lower than your rate.
Sure, electricity isn't "sexy" but Bounce Energy makes it easy.
Innovation, Flexibility, and Convenience
What makes Bounce Energy the best REP on the market is that the company consistently looks for ways to connect its customers with great rates, good rewards, and excellent customer service.Through great technology, you have access to your billing and account information any time of day through the MyAccount app on your smartphone.You get rewards every 6 months simply for paying your bill on-time each month.You can reach out to Bounce via Twitter, Facebook, e-mail, phone, and chat at your convenience.And the company provides a wide range of plans, including the ability to build your own plan - something no other company on the market offers.
I LOVE Bounce Energy!
Bounce Energy has lots of really cool options- Refer A Friend, rewards programs, and they have low rates. I am a very happy customer going on 5 years now.
Bounce is Overall Awesome!
I was with Direct Energy before I switched to Bounce and had many different billing/customer service issues during my time with Direct. Since switching to Bounce I have not had to deal with these issues which has been fabulous! I also have a lower rate and have saved through their Refer-A-Friend program! Bounce is awesome!
Great Service & Plans!!
Bounce Energy offers great customer service and is always friendly when i have questions about my service. They even offered me information on how i could save on my tv service. I have never had issues with Bounce Energy and will continue to use them when I move. I also love that I can do everything online if I choose to. For a fun & professional electricity company, Bounce Energy is for you!
Great Rates and Rewards
We've been Bounce customers for a little over 4 years and love the rates and rewards. When we moved were able to transfer our service online in less than 1 minute. I have even been able to sign up for DirecTV through Bounce Energy and get even more savings on my electricity bill!
Bounce Energy Rewards
The rewards are awesome. I save money just by being a customer!
Bounce energy has been great! $75 OFF!!
Just got my first bill and was surprised that it was so low. Super easy to sign up online and love the auto pay and easy online billing system. LOVE the rewards program and the fact that I got $75 off for using a refer a friend promo code I found online. You get unlimited $75 credits for each friend you refer that signs up and the friend gets the same $75 off. I just talked to customer service to see why the credit wasn't on there yet and they explained that it wont be credited until you pay 3 months of your bills on time. Customer service was really friendly and I didn't have to sit on hold at all.
Rewards
I got a free $50 visa gift card after being there for a year! all I had to do is pay on time. At my last electricity company they didn't do anything but send me bills.
Management Change? Billing farce
I used to be very happy with Bounce Energy; reasonable rates and the occasional promotion BUT I suspect there was a management change late it 2011 and some financial VP has sought ways to cut costs and push up profit. Because they only accept electronic fund transfers from two banks my online checking (Ing now Capital One 360) has to send paper checks. This worked fine until early 2012 when checks that had been posted after 5 to 8 days started to take 30 days and even 45 days. I was, and still am, convinced that they cut back on accounts receivable staff or deliberately held checks to get late or disconnect fees. I always paid on-line the day I was notified a bill was available and never waited for the paper bill but when I got a warning my bill was due and unpaid had to call three times with a credit card. Then things went back to normal it seemed but it was worse. A few months later I had a disconnect warning and when I called was told they had stopping sending the COURTESY emails. Now I just send them a big chunk of money before the bill is due, after paying last month I still have an $82. Anyone who doubts this can have proof of date checks issued and date cashed, I even wrote to the TDJ who I assume don't care about consumer ripoff if it's hard to prove they hold checks.
Dennis- Apologies for your frustrations. Let me clear up a few things. 1) We haven't had any turnover in our management in that timeframe, nor do we make decisions on profitability that adversely affect customers paying their bill on-time. 2) In fact, we've added more options for customers to pay their bills including ACH and Pick Your Own Due Date. 3) Bill payment through bank checks can be very inconsistent. Your bank or financial institution can take several days to actually print and mail your check even though they've debited your account. Add to that the amount of time for US Post Office delivery, which has reduced staff and days. Our policy is that ALL checks received to our PO Box are deposited and applied to the accounts within 24 hours or the next business day if a weekend. 3) We have not stopped sending courtesy emails. If you are not receiving them anymore, please make sure to add bounceenergy.com as an approved sender in your email client. We also don't have a record of anyone with your name as a customer. We would be happy to investigate further if you provide us with the account number and the name on the account to web@bounceenergy.com.

Great Electric Company
I love the rewards you get for paying on time. I have compared almost every electric company out there and Bounce always seems to have lower rates. Also they give you and whomever you refer a $50 bill credit when you sign up!
Looked good...
I placed an order for service Jan 4. Called around Feb 4 wondering why service not started. "Oh, sorry sir; glitch in the system. We'll start it right away." It's still not started. Company looked attractive from reviews and service plans, but not so much now...
Bounce Energy is AWESOME!
I switched to Bounce because of the variety of plan options as well as the great rewards! You get rewarded just for being a customer!
Looking good so far
Signed on with Bounce based on these few things: easy to use website, multiple billing options with no extra charge for using credit card w/ auto pay, and the per kwh rate seemed competitive.
Bounce is the best
There is no other company in Texas best then Bounce,I am fully satisfied customer.I recommend this company to all who is suffering from high monthly bill.
I would like to be agent of this company if possible.
Bounce Energy's has high TDU charges
Just from experience, twice with Bounce Energy in a row (two different locations), I find that their monthly charge (specifically TDU) are consistently higher than Reliant Energy as well as FirstChoice Energy. All three are based on monthly variable plan. It has been unclear to me as to how Bounce Energy receives high customer satisfaction when their monthly charge is that high.
MCR - It's not the we charge more TDU fees. It's that we actually show them to you, where most companies do not. The TDU fees are charges placed on your bill by Centerpoint (if you're in Houston). Bounce has no input on how much these are or whether or not they are charged. The difference is that we show those charges to you 'unbundled' so you know who is charging you what. Most companies just roll those fees or parts of those fees into their average kWh rate without itemizing it. Here's more information: http://bener.gy/tdu-fees.

Happy we chose Bounce Energy!
I recently moved to Houston from a regulated state and at first, I was a little overwhelmed by all of the electricity choices available. Bounce Energy has made the switch smooth and effortlessly for me! I love the low rate (less than I was paying back home!), great customer service and the rewards I get for paying my bills! Where else do you get rewarded for paying your bill?? I will highly recommend Bounce Energy to anyone!
Bait and Switch
My 1st and 2nd bill were about what I had expected based on the 12-month fixed rate I signed up with; the average price per kwh was .08 for the above 2000+ kw used each month. On my 3rd bill, the average price per kwh suddenly went up to .086. I realize the usage went down a little bit to 1925 kw but, according to my calculations, based on the EFL I signed up with, it should still be .08 per kwh but somehow they charged me an average of .086. Somehow the TDU charges are increasing and the Bounce floor manager that I talked to says they have no control over the TDU charges, that it is the electric service provider (in my case Oncor) who is responsible for the TDU charges/increases. What is the use of signing up a 12-month fixed contract when Bounce is essentially charging more than the price per kwh I had signed up for? I understood how Bounce calculated the 500kwh, 1000kwh, and 2000 kwh on the EFL I signed up for but now, on this 3rd bill, my calculations for the price per kwh is not matching what they are charging me, not even close. Basically, this is a bait and switch. I talked to a customer service rep and then the floor manager and got nowhere; they stuck to whatever the bill said. I have been calculating every electric bill I got from different electric companies for several years now and this is the first time I feel like being ripped off. I will run from this electric company as soon as my contract is up.
Christine - If you look at your EFL and compare your energy rate on your bills to that EFL, you will notice that has not changed and cannot change. When you sign up for a fixed rate plan, only new TDU fees can change your average kWh rate, which is also explained in your EFL you received when you signed up. The manager you spoke to is correct, the TDU (Oncor) has complete control over what charges and how much is passed through on your electricity bill.

Great Experience So Far
After being with another provider for over a year, I can say that I have been incredibly satisfied with my experiences at Bounce Energy. I was able to lock in a great rate and have enjoyed the perks of their rewards program. I am also really enjoying their new weekly emails estimating my bill and telling me how much energy I use - great for regulating my usage in this crazy Texas weather.
Bounce keeps you informed
The one thing that I love the most about Bounce Energy is how they keep me informed. I stay connected through Bounce Energy on Facebook and twitter. Many times have I found out special promos for bill credit through these social media platforms. I think its really different from other electricity companies. I also like how they send you usage reports every week so you can really learn how your energy usage is affecting your bill. I have recommended Bounce to many of my friends and will continue to do so!
Best electric company i have ever had...
I saw some stuff about Bounce Energy on Facebook and I was already thinking about switching companies. Love the rates, rewards, emails that tell me how much electricity I have used this week, etc. I was with TXU and I cut my bill in half. Not to mention TXU never gave me a thing for being a long time customer. Bounce energy actually seems to care about you as a customer and I've never even spoken to anyone there. Highly recommended.
WHY IS MY BILL DOUBLING EACH MONTH
I have fixed rate yet still I am was charged $90+ dollars on my 135 per month. I called and I must be stupid because I still dont get it.Where did this penalty charge come from???
Can I get a plausible answer the next time I call.
Michelle - Unless you are on balance billing, your amount will never really be the same from month to month. A fixed rate means that your energy rate does not change, not your bill amount. Your bill amount is based on how much electricity you use during a billing period. For almost everyone in Texas, more electricity is used during the extreme temperature months, meaning your bill will go up even if your rate stays the same. If you have any questions, please contact unless at customercare@bounceenergy.com.

I'm SO glad that I switched to Bounce
Having been a TXU customer for 15+ years I was very hesitant to change providers. When my 2 year contact was up I received a letter from TXU stating that my contract was expiring. My new rate was ridiculously high (they did say to call or log on for offers, but, why not just offer a competitive plan to me in the letter?). So, I checked this website and could not believe Bounce's rates (and no monthly fee with a certain amount of usage). Then I saw that I could even get American Airlines miles - that sweetened the deal. When I compared bounce's rates to TXU there was no comparison - Bounce beat TXU on every level. During the past 2 months I have saved over $150+ vs. what I would have paid with TXU. I wish I had changed earlier as it's the same electricity coming into my home. Do the research and save big money.
Effortless
I just signed up for bounce energy and it was seamless. I was able to get a great rate on Green energy, far better than my friends who are faithful TXU customers for a decade get on their "spacial rate". They also have a great rewards program.If you use a refer a friend code than you get $50 off your bill and so does your friend. Enjoy!
3 Things I Dig About Bounce
I was with Champion Energy for a while. Honestly, I didn't have any issues with them but my brother and several friends told me I should look into Bounce. I didn't really care at first, but I finally did and I am glad I did. Here's why I like Bounce: 1) My rate is about the same as it was before, but now I get cash back when i pay my bill because they offer rewards like that.2) My brother gave me his code so I could get a bill credit when I switched. That was cool. Nice refer a friend program.3) They an iphone app so I can pay my bill from my phone (i can't access internet from work).
Bounce Rec
Bounce has been a great experience so far - I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable consistent service. I have been with other electricity companies in Houston and switched to Bounce for about half the rate I was paying there. Not to mention with the rewards program I am being rewarded for paying on time so my bills are that much better.
Elizabeth
My experience so far with Bounce has been nothing less than the best. With their easy to use online sign up I was through the order process very easily and very quickly. I signed up to be on the cash back rewards program and am happy with the choice this far - it's not often you get paid just for rewarded your bill on time! Bounce is the only company where I found such great choices in rewards. I would happily recommend this company to anyone.
Slow or no payment processing
Avoid this electric provider they do not accept payment through bill pay eft transfers ,unlike StarTex and Reliant.Customer service via phone doesn't exist. They are very thorough with the follow up calls and harassing email .. Letters if you are coming upon your due date by 2 days. After 2 months of failed electroninc processing we opted to mail and the check mailed 8 days prior to due date arrives from Dallas to Houston in 9 days????? Strange that my sister in North Carolina receives her Mail within 3 ??? Stay away from this company,unless you appreciate harrasment!!!!!!!
TERRIBLE billing issues - service cut off
Had my electricity cut off today AFTER my bill was paid. Granted, my payment was late - ONE DAY. I'm 6 mos pregnant and had a very busy month of travel - both my husband & I thought the other had paid the bill. We received a call warning us of our energy being shutoff and IMMEDIATELY paid online. I received a confirmation email but what do you know? I wake up this morning and everything is off. We live in South Texas. It's JULY - you can KILL someone by turning off the electricity! I don't know another company that would shut off service for one day late payment - and after the payment had posted, at that! Have had to take time out of my work schedule today to be on hold with this company to make sure my service got turned back on... NOT renewing my contract. Ridiculous.
Great Customer service, easy to pay bill, easy to monitor bill, and low rates
Love bounce energy. I switched from TXU to bounce in Spring of 2011, went from 10.5 to 8.8 cents/kilowatt. I went from a July bill of 210 (the summer of the hottest summer ever) to 160 in August. All in a 1311 sq foot house at 100 + weather for days on end. I was impressed. Billing - if I had to say anything, it would be their automatic payment system. It's not a set day or even in a range of a day or two, it can be anywhere from 7 days prior to the due date to 7 days after. So, with that, I paid twice in one month (once for the previous month and once for the current). For someone on a budget, it can be difficult. But, I went to paying online manually and it's been much more easier to plan, I pay it myself, online, in 1 minute -done.Customer Service - is great. I dont sit through hit 1 5 or 7 for this that or the other. Its a few minutes of waiting (5 minutes or less) and I get a REAL person to talk to. They have always been friendly and very helpful.We moved homes and took them with us to our new house, easy move, and they lowered are rate to 5.5 cents/killowatt.It's been great.I recommend them to everyone.
Poor customer relations billing practices
After having to pay late fees for not receiving our banking debit in time we opted to mail the check only later noticed that we where still being billed late fees after mailing the paper check in sufficient time. Any promos that they offer you will have to fight them for . Customer. Service is non existent save yourself time money and despair .This company rates poorly.
Worst Customer Service
I am writing this based only on my my experience signing up for Bounce Energy. The enrollment process was easy. It only took a few minutes to complete online. When setting up a start date, Bounce wanted to charge $50 to start the service right away. You have to wait 3 business days to waive the charge. I waited.I tried calling them the day before service was to start in order to confirm that I would have power the next day. I was on hold for over 45 min then got cut off. I called again and was on hold for over 30 min, but had to hang up to get some work done. I called again at lunch and waited for 45 min and got cut off. Most people have to work and can't waste 2 hours on the phone with the utility company.On the day service was supposed to start, there was no power. After 2 more attempts at reaching Customer Service (with similar hold times) I tried calling as a new customer. Lo and behold I got a hold of someone right away. When I asked when my service would start, I was told anytime between 7am and 11pm.
They post your payment late, then charge late fee!
We had nightmares with Bounce. We would send our payment WAAAY ahead of time, but it would take them a week or more to post our payment. Then we got charged late fees. What's up with that? I wasn't the one late. You guys were! Get with the program folks. I would never use them again.
Bounce recommendation
Happy to recommend Bounce to others. Been very pleased with the switch to Bounce and the service and cost savings since I made the move. Had additional savings when some friends and family signed up and used my name as a referral.
Very happy with Bounce Energy
We switched from TXU to Bounce Energy a year ago. It was the best decision we've ever made! I did a lot of research before choosing Bounce and they were the best company in terms of rates, payment options, and plans. Customer service is prompt, friendly and all speak English. Their website is easy to navigate and simple to use to make payments online. They even have a phone app that allows you to check your account and pay your bill! We have saved so much money since switching from TXU, we wished we had changed companies sooner. Sidenote - I suspect people that are leaving negative comments about Bounce are people that probably don't pay their bills on time and/or have poor payment histories with other electric companies.
Thanks Joanna! Glad you made Bounce your electric choice.

Missing checks
I like the price of Bounce Energy but worry they have Enron like executives. I pay my bill from an on-line bank the day I am notified a payment is due and days before the mailed bill arrives. However two months in a row, and three times in total, my check has supposidly not arrived and unless I phoned in a credit card payment, I would have had late fees. As they do not accept electronic transfer from most banks, there is no proof when a payment is received. As every other payment from my bank goes through, I think they lose or delay checks to collect late fees.
Greatest company EVER!
Friendly customer service, excellent prices awesome rewards!
Beware of promotional rate from Bounce
Do not use this company, they have hidden fee's.
I went back to Dynowatt!!
Horrible customer service
They will surely make you wait at least 20 minutes,
and the representatives will be rude to you and even
not competent (everybody talks differently every time
and makes you confused) They will try to cheat you
with hidden fees. You must beware of the second
month's charge since they may change a huge amount
from the first month. And their representatives will
not make any effort to adjust anything for you. Oh, I
was about to forget one thing more. If the calls are
hung up while your talking with them, they will NEVER
call you back(even though they tell you they will),
and you must wait whole another 20+ minutes. The
quality of calls is a nightmare, too. I bet you won't
want to choose them. Such a horrible, horrible,
horrible experience, ever!
Bounces loses customer over $75.00
Do not use bounce. Bill are sent late and less then 10 days to pay, so you never pay on time so much for the rewards. I had been with bounce for 3 years, now I purchase a new house, and wanted electric turned by them on 1/27; I went online to transfer svc on 1/25 they want to charge $75, same if I wanted to move on 1/26. no one would waive the fee or reduce the fee or credit back my account, so I went with whom the JD Powers pick, so Bounce lost a customer over $75.00 - my new electric company charged $11.95 for express svc; I wouldhave given more notice to bounce, however with all the trouble I had with my bank, and it taking them 2 months for our home loan, I was not able to. I talked to 3 people and a supervisor at bounce, all over $75.00. Customer Care rep's are rude, and do nothing for you.
Bounce
This company has excellent service and their web site is easy to use. They even give discounts if you pay on time!
Set-up everythig online without issues
I figured to write the review for this company since I've been with them for almost six months. I arranged everything online, no issues, no problems, just had to fax over some docs that they needed. Good cust service when i called to ask why they need my driver's license. i'd really reccomend this company. You get your bill to your email and everything is really smooth. No need to talk/deal with anyone. Higly reccomend.
Go someplace else
Great promotion, rude on the phone, customer service nonexistent. Do not recommend them at all.
Bait and switch
I have been set up for a little over over a month and the rate went from the advertised 6.1 to 6.9 on my first bill to 12.2 on the 2nd? But they are still offering 4.1 to sign up.
Tired of holding for customer service
So tired of waiting for customer service as once they have your service they will
not allow you to talk to anyone. Currently on hold for over 22 minutes....this is
unexceptable.
The World's WORST customer service
Bounce Energy has the world's WORST customer
service ever. If the plans are a lot cheaper in
Bounce Energy, I would recommend to choose any
other companies out there. When you call, they
will make you spend at least 30 minutes to
solve your any kinds of problems. Their
representatives have nothing that they can do,
and will ask to find out the problem or
transfer you to another department while
holding you on. Even they are doing, they make
mistakes with every single things. Then they
don't know what happened, after those mistakes
are made. Their calls are hung up so easily in
my area, and they will never call you back even
though you request. Sometimes, even those
representatives are VERY RUDE!! They yell at
your ear on the phone. At least one thing to
remember.... If you don't wanna spend your
precious time with clumsy, rude customer
service representatives, don't choose this
company.
Beware of False Promotions
At the time I switched their prices were very low and they had good reviews. Their prices are now higher than most other providers in my area, but prices do fluctuate and that's to be expected. My problem with Bounce is that their sales department made promises about promotional rates to get me to switch that the company has refused to honor. I've called customer service several times and the front line people are always very nice and understanding and agree that the company should give me what they promised, but they aren't able to do anything themselves. They transfer you to their "escalations department" where you wait on hold forever (once for over an hour) and once you finally reach someone (decidedly less friendly) they say they will research the problem and call you back. They always promise to call back with 24-48 hours and then days or weeks later they call back and leave you a voice mail message and say they aren't going to honor their sales agents' promise. Buyer beware.
Best one I have found...so far.
Awesome renewable energy plans and good perks.
Bounce energy is a good one
We signed up a year ago with bounce energy (we were with TXU). Signed up to recieve a companion airfare ticket and a kwh rate of $.098 (at the time it was the lowest fixed rate, 12 months). Enrolled in auto pay. Everything was delivered as promised. We referred a friend in the 3rd month, so we recieved a $50 bill credit, a $25 bill credit for paying the first 3 months on time, and our electric bill for the month of october was $7.56! However, now the $.092 renew rate is a little high compared to others, so we are shopping around again. Airfare ticket promotion has no blackouts - only restriction is US travel in lower 48 and 1 year from issuance date. Fee of the airfare ticket is broken out by zones, rates start at $230 and go to $630 average about $500. Price for 2 people still beats expedia by at least $100 or so.
Very Happy With Bouce Energy
Bounce Energy has saved me so much money over the last year. My bills were anywhere from $200 to $300 lower than they were in the same house with TXU. I have an even better rate now. I have referred many friends who are very pleased as well with Bounce energy.
Bounce Energy is the BEST!
Bounce Energy is the BEST company I've ever had (and not just for electricity). Being a Bounce Energy customer makes me and my family feel like there is a good company out there that truly cares about their customers and does not consider us just another number. Their rewards program gives us every incentive to pay on-time and to remain a customer! All of their products that I've seen are truly one of a kind - their billing is vibrant and communicates extremely well to the customer base on what their bill contains and their messaging is updated on a monthly basis to keep us informed of different promotions, holidays and company changes. Additionally, their MyAccount provides easy account management and they've also provided their customers with an iphone app which is great. Their customer service is so warm and kind and they resolve all of our issuesThey keep in touch with the latest and greatest technology and keep HIGH on top of what everyone else is doing. I'll be a customer forever
Started well, but customer service deteriorated
After about a year and a half with Bounce, which began well, I have had numerous billing and customer service issues in the past two to three months. Contacting them to update my account has been frustrating. The customer service hours have been reduced from 7am-10pm and are now 8am-5pm, making it difficult to reach them. They refuse to allow my husband to make changes, despite adding him to the account about a year ago. When I have called, the Bounce line has me on hold for long periods of time, then just disconnects without anybody taking the call. When my husband did finally reach a person, he was not permitted to make changes, despite having been added to the account a year ago. Our last bill was about $175 higher than usual with no explanation. Ironically, this comes one month before the incentive of $150 off the bill is to take effect. I lack confidence the credit will appear on the next statement. It seems they have gone downhill rather abruptly in the past few months.
Just joined with Bounce!
I started to sign up with Mega Energy, but read
so many bad reviews on here that I decided to
cancel. Luckily I was within the grace period
for cancelling. I signed up for Bounce energy
and it was super simple, and it was a great rate
at 8.9 for 12 months. Sure some rates are
lower, but I would rather have a company that
was reviewed well. If you are joining you can
earn rewards for referring friends.
Excellent customer service
This is my 2nd year with Bounce, its great to have a provider that gives you something BACK for being a loyal customer. I received $75 on my 13 bill just for paying my bill on time. Also, easy to use online bill pay. Thanks Bounce for keeping up your end of the bargain.
Bounce Energy is much better than TXU.
6 Months ago I switched to Bounce Energy from TXU and there is a world of difference. 1. Bounce Energy has lower prices than TXU. 2. The ELS level is 1500 on a Bounce energy plan while TXU was 2000, I have not had to pay any fees for not using enough electricity. TXU always hit me for this fee. 3. The $60 discount code when signing up took three bills to show but was nice when it did. 4. I value paying my bills on time and Bounce Energy rewards me for my good behavior, something TXU always managed to screw up. My AMC movie tickets are on the way, I love it. 5. The customer service has been great I haven't had to have any contact with Bounce Energy since I signed up. When I was with TXU I had to talk to a person I could not understand that I could tell was in INDIA every other bill because they would over charge me constantly. I recommend that everybody check out Bounce energy's web site and check out what their plan for your area and the cost per kw. Bounce Energy is great.
No disconnect notice
Because I usually pay online and our server was
down, I tried - in vain - over and over to pay
my bill by phone. Everytime I would enter my
account number, the electronic voice would
repeat it incorrectly. I spent 15 minutes
retrying it. The next day, I again tried with
the same result, but finally thought my payment
went through. My payment was not late.
A week later, our lights suddenly went out at 7
a.m. I had absolutely no disconnect notice or
any other notice. When I tried to find out
what happened, I was informed that "Bounce
Energy is open from 8 - 5, Monday through
Friday." So much for customer service!!!
Happy with Bounce
Have received several rewards, the last a free month of electricity up to $150. this month. Something to smile about. Also, I have their Green energy plan, "Blue Sky." I pay a bit more but feel I am contributing in some small way to the good of our mother earth.
Great Customer Service and Price
Great customer service and great price. Nice to know that I don't have to worry about switching electric companies every so often and can just stick with them.
AWESOME!
No pricey Deposits
No confusing terms & conditions
Really straight forward
EXCELLENT rewards plan cool promotions
Love Bounce Energy
With all the options we have for energy providers in Texas it can be hard to weed through all of the Terns of Service options searching for hidden fees and charges. Not with Bounce Energy. Simple easy to read billing with no hidden fees. Great customer service and straight up billing plus some nice customer perks and plenty of rebate options makes me a truly happy customer.
Bounce energy is Awesome!
Bounce Energy has grown a lot in the past year.
they are awesome, and I would never switch.
THE BEST
Best electricity company EVAR! An electricity company that actually cares about it's customers.
Good prices, good promotions
I've only been a customer for three months, but so far all of my
experiences have been very positive. Prompt, helpful customer service +
they have lots of promotions (e.g. weekly credits on your bill for one
Facebook fan, special deals if you've paid your bill on time for 6 months,
12 months, 18 months, etc.). Plus, their prices are great.
Bounce Energy rocks!!
When we first moved to Dallas, I lucked out in picking Bounce Energy to provide our electricity. Little did I know they offer great customer service, access to numerous promotions through email or Facebook, and I get a great locked rate. I would definitely recommend Bounce Energy and I don't ever plan on switching companies. Thanks, Bounce Energy!
Great service
Great service, simple billing. Only problem is I forgot to renew and they hiked my rate for a month. Renewing now.
Bounce is the Best!!!
After being a Reliant customer for many years, I finally decided to try one of the little guys. After much research, I found Bounce. What luck!! My bills are much lower, customer service is great, and there are always perks for the customers.
Try Bounce...you won't be sorry!
Bounce Energy is amazing!
I have had the best experience and delight in paying my bill to Bounce Energy. I had been paying over $600 a month in the summer which has been reduced several hundred dollars for the summer months and under $100 in fall and winter. I love the savings!!
Bounce satisfied customer
Great company all around. Love the service and savings.
5-Stars!
I've used Reliant and Champion and Bounce got me the best fixed rates. They were also very helpful when I sold a rental property and needed some short term electricity without a lot of hassle.
Worst Ever. 100% SCAM. Beware!!!
Realized that I had been paying for supposed disconnection orders (an additional $65 per bill) from three months prior to the billing date. I haven't had my service disconnected! It was a small line on the back of the bill that I finally noticed. Customer service = HORRIBLE! To resolve the issue took at least an on the phone and then they acted as if they were doing ME a favor to resolve their mistake!
Not too bad
Been with bounce for a year and have no complaints. reasonable and worry free since i have the auto payment option.
Customer Service Representatives
Worst customer service ever. I am not sure if it is a training issue or attitude problem. Once my contract is up, we will not renew. Most of our neighbors also are under contract and sad to say we are all not renewing!
Bad customer service
Rigid and unhelpful customer service
Best rates...
This company is saving me so much money. My bills are half what they used to be. This month I qualified for a promotional discount (dont remember what it was), so I was credited $75. My bil this month is $8!!!
Friendly company, good prices, good billing, and rewards.
Horrible customer service!!!!
Have had numerous negative customer service experiences and problems with my bill. They consistently mismanaged my account and when I would call to deal with the different issues, I had to explain the issues to approx. 4 people with often not receiving any resolution. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with and their operators and smug and curt. I wholeheartedly do not recommend this company.
Horrible Payment Service
I have been with Bounce Energy for 3 months and pay as soon as I get the bill. So far, two of the three months I have had to spend a tremendous amount of time on the telephone with them because my payments have not been posted. I pay as much as 17 days before the bill is due and I still have to pay with a credit card because Bounce has not posted the payment. I would never recommend this company. Custiomer Service is NOT a priority with Bounce.
BEWARE OF BILLING SCAM
Rates are ok, however the billing is a nightmare. For three months sent in payments on time and kept getting disconnection notices. Called on hold 30min, prompted to to converse through e-mail. Finally got a person who explained my bank was holding the funds. I pay all my bills on line, bounce is the only company to ever say they weren't getting paid. Wants you to use a pay service, don't think so, my bank is FREE. How many other people get scammed paying so called late charges.
OUTSTANDING
Switched from Reliant three months ago, best thing I have done to save money in a while. Customer service was OUTSTANDING. The web platform is the best I have seen in the industry.. Love the rewards program.. They even were able to switch me from DISH network to DIRECTV and save me hundreds of $$. Other companies should learn from Bounce Energy, customer service still lives in America.
Lowest rates, best service!
I have been with several electric companies here in Houston. Bounce has given me the best deal and good service. When I changed from Green Mountain, my bill dropped 40%. That is huge to me!
Really great company
I had been a long time customer with TXU, and I didnt even realize what a high rate I had with them. After shopping around, I chose bounce and have been very satisfied with my bills. I got a great fixed rate and did the math and turns out I would be saving over $600 a year! It was easy to switch. I just called their customer service line on a tuesday and by friday I was already a Bounce customer. I love their website and my online account is easy to use and has lots of information. I will be recommending Bounce to anyone shopping for electricity.
Bounce Electric
I have been with Bounce for a year and have been very pleased with the customer service, the reliability of service and promptness of all my call in requests. I wouldn't not change.
Love 'Em - WOW'd me - I'm Telling Everyone
I am not usually a fan of big utility companies, been burned by them in the past. I was pleasantly surprised at how helpful Bounce Energy was when I signed up. I was moving into my first apartment since moving to Houston from Seattle - so I really had no idea what I should do considering that I had never had a choice when picking my electric company. They walked me through all the plans and I decided to sign up with them since the rates were as good OR LOWER and they were the most helpful of the 5 companies I spoke to. Got my first bill yesterday and it was nothing like I that i thought it would. I kept hearing horror stories from my friends about their bills during the summer - I was pleased with mine. So, thanks Bounce Energy friends. You made this a lot easier than I thought it would be. Now, just keep it up.
Unorganized and Misleading
Great rates. Terrible customer service. They can't keep their records straight. In addition, they have tried to wiggle out of giving the companion airfare ticket 3 times. Just FYI, I've paid early every month for the 9 months I've been a customer. I recommend Bounce if you want low rates only. I recommend another company if you want low rates and good customer service and for promises to be kept.
Customer Service and Bill Pay a Nightmare
When I first signed up for Bounce I was very happy with their six
month lock-in rate. By the time the second bill came around I
received a late notice and them threatening to turn off our electricity.
Third bill they didn't process my payment ending in another late fee.
Calling customer service EVERYTIME has resulted in being on hold for
OVER half an hour. The representatives are constantly transferring me
because they don't know how to answer simple questions, and then
when I do talk to someone who supposedly knows what they're talking
about, they tell me to use the email system, which takes days.
In my opinion, look elsewhere.
Bounce bites!
We signed up for Bounce's 6 month "Blue Sky" were satisfied until the 6th month. We paid our
bills before we went on vacation. when we got
back we had a disconnect notice from Bounce
stating we were 2 months late. Couldn't get a
reply by email. took way too long to get a
person to admit to their error. When our next
bill came it still showed us as past due. again, no email reply for WEEKS, no answer for
nearly 30 minutes by phone on MULTIPLE tries.
They've never replied to emails until I said we
were switching. Then they called 2 hours later.
Switching without remorse.
Bounce Has Been Great
I signed up with Bounce about 2 months ago, just before summer started to heat up. The sign up process was easy, and within a week I had received notice from Bounce that I had been effectively signed up and added to their system. Since then, my bills have cut in half, and I've gotten regular notices from them about my due bills. Paying online has been easy. So far, so good.
Bounce rocks!!!
Direct energy had horrible contracts and fees with bad rates. Reliant fools you by pretending to be nice and then treating you bad, but bounce just loves you all over!
Bounce Energy delivered everything I was promised.
I became one of Bounce Energy's first customers when they opened their doors and asked me to switch to their service. Since deregulation, I had never once looked into doing this, so I thought it might be a move I would come to regret. They offered a lot of incentives like rebates and rewards that got my attention. I'm happy to say that not only did the transition go smoothly, but they have kept their promises and have not had to be reminded to deliver what they promised to me. The rebates appear automatically on my statements and rewards show up in the mail. When my bills are paid automatically with a credit card charge I am notified with an email every time. Because they communicate so effectively through the web and email, I never have to use the phone. I highly recommend this company.
Love This Electric Company
So, i can't tell you how many issues I have had with electric companies in the Houston area. My overarching view was they were all terrible. After I got fed up with Stream's shady practices of increasing your rates without telling you, i switched to Bounce Energy. Not only did my bill cut in half, but I don't have to deal with the grief that comes with every other company's customer services problems. Love it.
Bounce offer no customer service
I have been a customer of Bounce for almost a year. It has been a terrible experience. Long waits on the telephone,no action available on the net.All I ever receive is an apology, the the problem remains or changes to something new.
Great Company
I appreciate a company who thinks outside the box. I was moving and a ton of things to do including ordering my electric service. Didn't know who I was going to choose, but I knew that I was switching from Reliant. I did some comparing and in about 5 minutes found this Express Moving plan from Bounce Energy. Hooked up my electric service, changed my address and added me to the don't call and don't mail list (which i hadn't even thought of). But on top of all of that, got my first bill at my new place it was less than what my last bill was with Reliant with only 14 days of service on my last bill. It certainly pays to shop around.
Bounce Energy Review
Good company. I've had them for 6 months. I liked the Fresh Start program, no deposit. My bill dropped drastically, to half, after the 3rd month of payment on time . I would recommend. They got me power when everyone wanted a huge deposit.
So Far Pretty Good
I signed up for Bounce Energy and decided to take them up on their free flight deal. I got the card as promised and went to the web site. I needed to get 2 tickets to San Diego. So I checked the prices on the web site versus Expedia. They were about $100 less. So I booked them. Everything worked like a normal ticket. The thing I'd note is that I booked the tickets 2 months in advance. So, booking early is pretty important. When I tried to book tickets a week in advance of another trip the prices were less - but the departure times and return flight times were either really late or early.
Not A Well-Organized Company
I signed up for Bounce Energy when I was looking for a company that didn't require a deposit. The plan was meant to start out at .16.9/KWH, and after 3 months of paying on time it would go down to their lowest available rate (around .10/KWH). The first month I was automatically charged the same amount twice, and I had to call to request a refund. They took about 30 minutes to answer the phone, but they were kind to me and my money was refunded in 4 days. After paying 3 months on time I did not recieve a lower rate on my bill. When I called to find out why, they said that their system had me late on one bill - which I was not - and they fixed that error for me. Unfortunately, they said I still have to pay the amount on the bill - even though it is much higher than it supposed to be - and any extra charges will carry over as credit. Overall, their price is fair, no long term contract, and quick service connection - but they need to work a little on their customer service and billing.
Couldn't be happier
This company proactively moved me to lower rate after my previous contract ran out. I hadn't even thought about my bill since I order several months before. it is appreciated.
Highly Recommended
I did quite a bit of shopping around before I switched to Bounce Energy. First off, this site is by far the best one to help you make an informed decision on electric companies. Thanks. Second, I decided on Bounce Energy due to the information you provided, namely low rates, bill credits and the free friends airfare thing. When I called to order, the rep was extremely helpful and nice and she walked me through ordering a fixed rate plan at a lower price than the other plan I originally wanted. I primarily felt compelled to promote them when I got my first bill and it was half of what my previous bills had been from Reliant. Hope it stays that way.
Horrible Company To Deal With
Simply stay away from this awful company. The customer service is a nightmare, they make you wait on hold for an hour at a time, will not give a straight answer to your questions, etc etc etc. They overcharged me one month and after spending about six hours on the phone dealing with them I was told repeatedly that "The bill has been generated and I must pay It-No options".They gave me a credit the next month but refused to listen to me try to tell them THIER mistake was putting me in financial hardship.I can not stress how HORRIBLE THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS-STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
Just got my first bill from Bounce
I got tired of TXU ripping me off so I switched to Bounce. My first bill was way lower. I am recommended them to everyone.
Moved here from Portland Oregon
Had alot of problems with Bounce. One is you never can get through to them on the phone, I have spent hours of cell minutes trying to straighten out problems with them. I moved out of an apartment on the 5th and notified them of the 6th to shut off the electric there and start it at the new place. On the 17th I found out they never sent it to the right dept so I reordered on the 14th.It would be on on the 17th at new place and when I was talking with them again about another issue they said no it says it won't be on until the 20th at the new location. On the 28th the landlord cut off the old electric and believe it or not mine was not on---well it was but they turned it on for the house across the street!! I had $200.00 worth of food going bad in frig. They did put it through as same day service which is suppose to be $125 charge.They technically had until midnight to turn it on so I had to run and buy a bunch of ice to keep everything good. Horrible --Simply Horrible
Thank You Thank You
I switched to Bounce Energy earlier this year I was super stressed out that my bill for the summer was going to be sky high like last year, but so far it hasn't even been close. I am currently in between jobs and need all the help I can get. Thank You Thank You Thank You.
Thanks for the Vacation Discount!
Ordered Bounce back in February. They have reasonable prices and I liked this friends fly free thing. To be honest, I thought it was a to good to be true and I would have to jump through 5000 hoops to get it. About 2 months after I ordered, I called them and after waiting on hold a while, I spoke a very nice lady who said I had to be a customer for 3 months before I got it. They could have told me that when i ordered, but oh well. I wanted to use it for my wife when we go down to Disney World. Sure enough, I finally got it and now my wife, kids and I are headed to Florida next month. Saved me about $500.
Great Experience So Far
I switched to Bounce Energy when I moved because they didn't require a deposit on my plan. The person who took my order was very nice. Their price was a little higher than some plans from other companys but I guess it's because I don't have to pay a deposit. They are also suppose to lower my price once I pay 3 bills on time. We will see, i guess. I was a little confused when i first tried to pay my bill online but i figured it out. The 2nd time I logged in to pay they had already made it easier.
Freebies
I just signed up with Bounce a couple of months ago - the price seems good and I really like that I get a free magazine. Sometimes it's hard to get through to their customer service, but my question did get answered quickly and easily once I got there. I've also seen that they've made their My Account better since I signed on- it's easier now for me to pay my bill online - which is cool since they give me a $5 bill credit when I do.
Very Pleased
I've been a customer for roughly 3 months. Extremely pleased with the billing options and the price. My electric bill has been cut in half with Bounce
