    Pending Government Action:
    Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
    State of Ohio, ex rel. Dave Yost vs. FirstEnergy Corp., No. 20 CV 006281

    The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven.

    On September 23, 2020, the State of Ohio ex rel. Dave Yost, Ohio Attorney General, filed case No. 20 CV 006281, in the Court of Common Pleas, Franklin County, Ohio.  The Primary Action sets out a corrupt enterprise claim under Ohio Revised Code §2923.32 and §2923.34 alleging major utility players and various political actors acted in concert to create Ohio House Bill 6, which includes a monthly charge to every ratepayer called a "nuclear generation fee."

    The defendants named in the case are: FirstEnergy Corp.; FirstEnergy Service Company; FirstEnergy Solutions Corp.; Energy Harbor Corp.; Larry Householder; Friends of Larry Householder; Generation Now, Inc.; Jeff Longstreth; JPL & Associates LLC; Constant Content Co.; Neil Clark; Matt Borges; 17 Consulting Group LLC; and Juan Cespedes.

    Some of the requests made of the court by Ohio Attorney General are: that the court revoke/nullify any application filed by any defendant to the Ohio Air Quality Development Authority; prevent parties from receiving monetary benefit, supplement, credit or offset through H.B. 6 of the 133rd Ohio General Assembly; each defendant entity and nonprofit be dissolved or reorganized to remove those involved; defendants be enjoined from engaging in all lobbying activities for eight years; and defendants ordered to pay damages.

    The matter has been stayed pending the outcome of Federal criminal prosecution in a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act matter (United States v. Householder (1:20-cr-00077) District Court, S.D. Ohio.

    Complaint Type:
    Billing Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    In early march, while I was on the road working, representatives from Energy Harbor LLC visited my residence. They approached my girlfriend and misrepresented their intentions, leading her to believe that she was merely confirming information. Instead, they obtained her signature and used it to enroll me in their energy program without my consent. Upon returning home, I discovered that my energy provider had been switched to Energy Harbor LLC. I never authorized this switch, nor did I sign any agreement with them. This unauthorized enrollment has resulted in higher energy bills and significant inconvenience. 1. Energy Harbor LLC switched my energy provider without my consent, using deceptive practices to obtain a signature from my girlfriend. 2. Since the unauthorized switch, my energy bills have increased significantly, causing financial strain. 3. Attempts to cancel the service and revert to my original provider have been met with resistance and delays from Energy Harbor LLC. Resolution Sought: 1. I request the immediate cancellation of the unauthorized service with Energy Harbor LLC and a return to my original energy provider. 2. I seek reimbursement for the additional charges incurred due to the unauthorized switch, amounting to $975 3. Written confirmation of the cancellation and reimbursement should be provided to ensure that no further unauthorized actions are taken. I have contacted Energy Harbor LLC multiple times to resolve this issue, but their responses have been inadequate. I have also filed complaints with the Illinois Commerce Commission for further assistance. Energy Harbor LLC's fraudulent practices have caused significant distress and financial burden. I urge the BBB to assist in resolving this matter promptly and ensuring that such deceptive practices are addressed to prevent further harm to consumers.

    The most unprofessional company. Nothing gets resolved. Been trying to get my solar running since January. Thats 7 months of calling and lies. *** came out yesterday and said it was turned on to find it today that its not. Been getting run around seven whole months. Stay away from them unless you want aggregation.
