    Complaint Type:
    Billing Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    On April 23, 2024 I called in and spoke with Felicia to have my account placed on budget billing and she said it would begin next billing cycle. It did not reflect budget billing in May 2024. On May 21, 29, 30, 31. I sent emails asking for the budget billing issue to be corrected. Everyone responded with a different reason why it couldn’t be handled via email and to call in for any further concerns. On May 28, 2024 I called in and spoke with Cassidy who was unable to handle the account issues so I asked for a supervisor. She said one was not available at that time and she would leave a note for me to receive a call back. I received a call back from the supervisor ***** on May 30, 2024. I was unavailable and she left a voicemail to call back in. May 31, 2024 I called in and spoke to “unknown” customer service rep. I asked this representative several times for a supervisor. She refused and gave me several reasons why I wasn’t being transferred to a supervisor. Eventually, I was transferred to a supervisor, *****. ***** assured me the account was on budget billing and apologized for her “new” employee’s conduct. June 27, 2024. My account is not reflecting budget billing amount I agreed to in May. June 26 & 27, 2024. I sent another email, the emailed responses from **** and *****, Customer Service Representative Customer Correspondence, have said I need to call in for security purposes. This is time consuming, frustrating, and unacceptable from a company I have no choice in dealing with and receiving my electric energy from. I have no choice. AES Ohio is the only company in my area to offer customer service and electricity lines, etc. My account is paid in full and I have no outstanding money due.

    AES Electric employees and management are in dire need of training to operate their company if al the bad reviews and bbb complaints are any indication. I have had prompt payment with DPL/AES for over 51 years with my homes,rentals and cottage at Indian Lake. My cottage at the lake suffered some damage from the tornado in February. Now that repairs have been made, they are wanting an inspection from the county (which I understand) and a deposit of $100. Mind you I have NEVER in my 77 years of life been requested a deposit. They say I dont have sufficient credit info from Experian. What happened to checking credit with DPL/AES? I also retired from DPL after 35 years, many years being in Customer Service. At that time we requested deposits for por records but not based on info given by a 2nd party. I have already been told a supervisor agreed with deposit as did the Executive office. I called PUCO but according to previous complaints and reviews sounds like they side with utility company. I also am reporting to BBB and "Turn to 2". As if I don't already have enough stress, this beats all.
