Just Energy Company Review

Stay away from Just Energy

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

Sams Club is the place to go!

I was approached by a young lady in a Sams Club. I was hesitant to switch after having been with Gexa for over 6 years. My bill got cut down by over a third and now in the peak of summertime, my bill is $103 for a 4 bedroom with the free nights plan versus last summer I was paying over $400. I LOVE JUST ENERGY!

My I just energy free night Esperance

I have been adjusted any of your customer for five years the last two years Ive had three nights and Im signing a new contract for two more years of free nights

Lily fixed my Tara energy problem

I was mistakenly billed for service I did not ask for. Thank you lily!

High Bill

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

I love Just Energy

My previous company was charging me $150 monthly for a 2 bedroom apt then I found Just Energy and my mo bills are less than $50. I get notifications about my usage broken down by day so I know where I might be able to save. I love this company.

Awesome company

Best experience with Just Energy inside of Sams Club they saved me so much money every month never changing because they have a all inclusive rate no surprising delivery charges

Love Nights Free

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

Sams club is where its at!

I joined at sams club last month for the nights free promotion and it was a very easy process which was great. I was hoping for a cheaper bill and thats what I got. My bill went down $70 compared to the $140 I was paying with reliant. Thank you for this promotion to us Sams club members!

Just beautiful

We signed up in Sams club and their customer service and prices were perfect. Their representatives will walk you through it all, no hassle. First bill is looking good! Thank you!!

Best Customer Service

Really helpful customer service and affordable bill. Roughly stays between 50-70 for my 3 bd house on the Nights Free Plan

New Member

I love to see my bill is no longer over $450.00. Most of all I appreciate that you monitor our Electricity and sending me update on weekly usage.

Great service, better options. Earn credits for you usage

Service consistent as are plans/perks within the plan. Ive received over $200 in perks after 1 year of service

Love JE

Rep at Sams club signed me up for the free nights and my rate stays between.07 and .09 after oncor is included

Best Energy service o have ever had, compared to TXU, Reliant, and Green Mountain.

No billing issues, I like getting weekly usage information, and no surprises on my bill

Edds report

Great

Best kept secret...

They've gone above and beyond with customer care. I appreciated not feeling judged or shamed after my family had no other choice than to file a chapter 13. They didn't require a deposit and wasn't forced into contact. That was 5 years ago and I'm a proud and loyal customer for as long as they're in business!

Cheers for Just energy

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

Awesome

Pleasant experience

Great company! Give them a CHANCE!!

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

Great service

This Energy company is Awesome I want personally thank Chasity For getting me the Best service possible She is such A sweet heart And She Explained everything so wonderfully She is the best Customer service Rep I ever spoke too.God Bless

Great company

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

Truly what they say it is

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

Awesome Awsome Awsome

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

Long Term Contracts

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

Informative and Very Helpful

I contacted this provider to obtain information on enrolling a new service and the customer service experience was wonderful. The agent Ivan or Isaac assisted me so well, and although they did not have the most competitive rates i knew i was making the right choice with this provider. I would definitely recommend this provider to all businesses.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Just Energy!!!!!

I switched from TXU last year to Just Energy and I highly reccomend anyone who has had it with the big monopolized companies like TXU. My bills used to average about 200.00 monthly with TXU and now for a little over a year with Just Energy we have had 100.00 average bills now!!!! Thank yo Just Energy and also everytime I talk to any customer service agent they are in USA NOT OUTSOURCED like TXU ot Direct Energy who is a subsidiary of Centrica a Brittish company. My money stays here in USA where I live and I LOVE JUST ENERGY for their GREAT PRICES and GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!!

SUPER DUPER LOW PRICE. OMG!!!

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

Poor Customer service

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

Free nights and weekends don't seem free

I signed up for the free nights and weekends because my son grandson and daughter-in-law moved in with me and I needed a cheaper energy plan so I thought I was getting a good deal with a free nights and weekends I didn't. my build jumped higher and they're not here now and my bill is still high

Tookie

A okay just had problems with redemptionreward points

Glad I forgot to cancel! Saved me money!

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

No problems

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

Great Company

I've had a great experience in signing with Just energy. They are the largest green energy provider in north America. They can't please everybody but needless to say they have A- with the better business bearau. I completely reccomend Just Energy because I don't have to keep renewing my contract every one or two years. They also have all inclusive rates no charge on supply and delivery on my contract. Get Just Energy.

Happy Camper

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

Change of Heart About JustEnergy

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

Concering Just Energy

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

Good Electric Provider

I have recently just switched to JustEnergy and I am completely satisfied with their rates and plans. I hope others with take to Go Green Challenge as well to help our environment. Thanks

Excellant company

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

Best move I could have made

I have Found that Just energy has great customer service and there energy consultants have a wealth knowledge of the cost of energy cost today.

None

The longer the protection in this economy the better.

Peace of mind with a straight forward company

We been with Just Energy for over 5 months we already seen the difference as far as the amount that we pay versus our former provider TXU, excellent customer service, We love our 5 yr. price protection.

Honest, straight forward policies

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

Double charges to credit card

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

Unfortunately events

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

Your Ripping Us Off

Just Energy , i would say for 12 months luved up to its obligation.Now as we enter our 13 monthJust energy wants to Bill Us almonth 300 for 1000k or so .We will either work this out tomorrow or i will report them to the Texas Public Utility Board for fraud & not pay a red cent as they try to hijack my pocket book..Un professional, fraud,Broken Trust with Just

Won't renew but had great service at a good rate

I have enjoyed 8 cents a killowatt for 12 months. My contract is up in a few days and now their cheapest killowatt per hour is 11 cents. So I'm shopping around.

Happy

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

Good company but unethical sales process

I can tell you that the sales process is really pushy and based on lies. The salesperson knew in advance that I was moving out prior to the 12 months, so he assured me that it was ok as long as, the company could not service the area I was moving to. He offered me in march 2022 to pay the early cancelation fee of the other company ($149 USD) in a reimbursement format, plus no cancellation fee at the end. After the conversation, I did everything they told me and they even send an email telling me that this cancellation fee reimbursement will be charged in my last statement. I called back and customer support assured me(again) that the reimbursement will not be charged at any moment.

After I moved (just as I told them in advance) they charged me the $149 USD, after calling back we settle 75 USD less on this fee (thanks to Amita for her support in this matter), however, I feel the responsibility to tell you that if you want to do business with them be very careful with the small letters on their sales process, dont trust anything theyre telling you unless you can have that in a formal email or somewhere. I end up paying $75 USD for being a fool and trusting the other end of the line.

As for the electricity bill, they help me to pay a little less every month, and I didnt have any other problem with them.

Very Dishonest Company - Stay Away From

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

What out for last bill.

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

Regret

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

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I'VE EVER HAD

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

Just Energy = High Price Energy

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

Customer service lacking

Moved out of the area and received an email saying no termination fee would be assessed... There was and it took multiple calls in which over half the time the foreign call center reps just hung up. This went on for almost 3 months ended up disputing thru my credit card. Then they tried to send it to a 3rd party collections

After 1 year, I still cannot access my account

Very bad service, yes they call you back and transfer you from one person to another and at the end they cannot resolve the issue. How difficult can it be for you to make me access my account online?????

$20 Notice of Disconnect 3 days after due date

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

Completely dumbfounded

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

Very bad customer service.

The service here is very very bad. The service representatives all seem to have comprehension issues and so its so frustrating to call in to resolve any issue or even ask a simple question. I dread it. I dread it so much I will be changing service providers. Rates are not super great. Just average.

Bait and switch

I e only had them for a five months but my first bill was good then the next was double and the next triple and it just keeps getting higher, I was shown bills and I signed up for .08 kw and told that a family of two never used more than 1000 kw a month but being charged as if it's a family of 10, good thing we're military and will be leaving soon.

Door hit me on my way out.

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

Customer service

Your staff harasses customers. Some of them is unprofessional. The payment plan is trash. Been with Just Energy for years. They have made horrible changes. As soon as my contract is up I am gone.

Long time customer

I've been with Just Energy for a while now, never had an issue... then one day their energy perks program is gone and all those points I earned, gone! WTF

Horrible Customer "NO" Service

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

Just Energy Experience

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

Collection policy

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

What Customer Service?

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

They only post good reviews

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

The worst energy company avaliable

If you want to speek to coustmer service you better set aside at least 12 hours.

Exit Fee

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

Pay online? Not likely

For some months I havent been able to use the online pay service. It use to work fine. What's up?

Thoroughly Misinformed

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

Not renewing contract.

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

Don't Go With Just Energy

Month 1 your bill be $70... Month 5 your bill will be $250... they increase in increments every month. I tested them by leaving out of town or 21 days... with all lights and ac off... and my bill was even higher than when i was there the full month... They will play games with your meter read and hustle you out your money .

Horrible

Just try calling 1-866-5878674. It's a joke. Long delays I between selections. You'll get disconnected for no reason. No call back when you leave your call back number Ect. Plus i am reporting them to the PUC for charging way more than stated on the facts sheet. Just switched to stream energy. Forget about the 2 $75.00 gift cards for the 2 accounts I had.

Nonexistant customer service

Tried to call cust service....No one answers the phone. Left a message for a call back and got a salesman. Just an endless loop of machine generated prompts...

Honest, straight forward policies

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

Billing

I was stopped at the grocery store promised this great deal. Well now I'm it for almost $600 dollars with all the fees. I was on there service for 1 month they basically said too bad to sad. Do not fall for this company. What waste of my time and money. I thinks I will report them to the BBB as well

Worst company ever

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER THEY LIE THEY ARE RUDE THEY HAVE HIDDEN FEES DONT USE THEM

They need a zero star option

Rude, unreliable, and definitely not a good value.

Terrible systems in place and not the most responsive support team

Just Energy has continued to have faults during my time with them. I had moved from one location to another, but they kept charging me for the previous location because they did not process the transfer request fully. It took months for them to correct this. Forcing me to pay money for an address I wasn't using. Afterwards, they tried to charge me for a remaining balance on that address even though it was not rightfully mine.

They "refunded" my money in the form of account credit which was an issue, because I was already not going to renew my account. To get reimbursed for what they owe me, They said I needed to wait until account closure and for the final bill which would then be refunded to my card on file.

I contacted support to make sure it would be refunded, and they then told me that they can only refund in the form of a check that would take 5 to 6 WEEKS of processing. They no longer allow refund through the card as they did before.

Avoid this electric company at all costs. It's processes, Support, and responsiveness are by far the worst I have dealt with.

Dont get

Not helpful at all . Wasnt able to really answer any of my questions. No explanation what so ever

Just Energy is a scam

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

Fraud--Plain and simple

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

Worst electricity company !

This is by far THE WORST company ever, the employees dont know how to do their job , they lie just to get you off the phone , theyre rude . Prices are sky rocket high , they change rules and regulations regularly without a notice or informing customers . Ill definitely be canceling my subscription with them and 0/10 recommend Id rather have no electricity then to ever give just energy a penny out my damn pocket ! Train your employees & monitor the calls for the lazy employees who cant seem to do a simple job that Im sure a 10 year old could do ! Highly disappointed and furious . They left me without electricity for 48 hours ! In 20-30 degree weather !

Customers dont matter to them

This company over charges you, refuse to give extensions unless you pay 50% of your bill down, call you with tv playing in the background, refuse to help you understand your bill and how they are charging you, they lie about rates and charge you completely opposite of that! They falsely say they are the best in Texas electricity provider.

Uncaring company

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

This company is a scamer and crooks

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

DO NOT USE JUST ENERGY THEY SAY ANYTHING TO GET YOU SIGNED ON THEN YOUR BILL WILL DOUBLE!

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

Scam Artist

First bill was 217 the next month 584 they lie to get you in with them

JUST ENERGY. NOT WORTH IT ENERGY

I have been a loyal customer for over five years, used their electricity in two different homes. I will NOT be continuing my service with them. If they didnt charge $175 to cancel my plan I would today. They used to have great customer service and out to provide the best. But this last year they have been absolutely horrible. My bill has tripled, even with it being the warmer months of the year I have never paid as much as I am paying now. For the same plan, keeping my thermostat at 80 during the day and I am on their Free Nights Plan. If you want to over pay, be charged excessive fees and deal with poor custom service choose Just Energy.

????Fraudulent billing practices

Just Energy was our electricity provider from 10/2017 until 8/9/22. We switched companies. We paid our last bill cycle from 7/27-8/09 for $154.98. We received another bill for $74.08 paid it on 8/11/22. Now JE sent us a last bill for 7/27 -8/9 for $166.86???? What a scam...awful...times are hard enough

Not good

Did not give what they quoted and tried to lock me up in a 3 year contract not cool....

YOUR BILL IS GOING TO BE OUTRAGEOUS DO NOT USE JUST ENERGY

I am new to Texas and upon moving in my 3 bedroom duplex in November, my landlord suggested just energy. She told me they give free nights. So I went ahead with this company and agreed to a 12 month contract. NO free nights! No free or reasonably priced ANYTHING. My bill is easily well over $130 every month even though its just my son and I living here and the house is unoccupied from 7 am until after 6 pm daily. Two TVs in the entire home both of which are turned off by 9:30 when my son goes to bed. We have the same amount of usage every month consistently, we started off with our bill at $79 and now this month we are at $160. OH and I agreed to a 12 month contract in November 2021, my account shows they entered in a contract date that doesnt end until 2024. Horrible scamming crooks. Ill be paying the $175 cancellation fee and washing my hands of this garbage company.

The most miserable power in Yoshi

Ive been working for 30 years as a dental technician I make decent money I lost my job so I was struggle with one electricity Bill with just Energy I called customer service to tell them if there is any plan to help people struggle because I applied for organization and they promised they would help me she said if you pass the due date from your bill payment we can I shut down the power thats mean me and my daughter 10 years old we can sit without power and this weather in Dallas I thought that Ive never hurt for 20 years theres no option or waiting time to pay your bills so I realized this company all what they want the money even if they put you and your family in danger or to die with the Very hot weather

BAD ELECTRIC COMPANY!!

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

FRAUD

Been with this company over six months work all day live in one bedroom apartment each month bill more than 200 a month no emails sent showing usage just lies and deceptions please do not use this company will be reporting to the BBB FOR FRAUDULENT activity when call wait time over 20 minutes no one to speak proper English to have two way conversation worst experience ever HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR ANY BUSINESS

Very Rude Customer Service Phone rep

The rep I had on the phone kept hanging up on me after I asked about rates. Every time I called back and asked him the same thing he would keep hanging up. Very unproffessional. Train your reps better.

My bill wasn't cheaper
