      I signed up for energy through Energy ***** through 2025. I have been paying Energy Texas and my last payment to them was last month. This month, I did not see my bill come due. Suddenly I receive a letter from GME stating if I don't pay them by 6/20 I may get disconnected. My bill was high. I was very confused about why they would be asking me for payment, I was provided no information or transitional courtesy from either ET or GME... Just a sudden disconnect notice. So I call on 6/19 and they're like oh ya sorry but we have your contract now. Don't worry we have the same terms you signed up for. I informed them I have solar, does my plan include buyback? He seemed unsure but ultimately "well it has to do don't worry"... That was not reassuring, I asked him to send me the terms.I received the *** and it was nothing like my contract. Higher kWh (12.1 vs 11.2) no solar, no rewards program (big reason I agreed to E.T) So I called again, spoke to another agent who was like oops yeah you have to call this other number for solar. Sooo if I just trusted you, I would be screwed out of my old plan? The number she gave me did not pick up. I ended up paying the due bill that day for $172 solely to prevent disconnection (hello Texas heat) and I am STILL unable to resolve my bill with anyone, my contract is wrong. What happened to Right to Choose? I didn't pick these people, how am I stuck?

      My house hold uses solar. We gather enough energy to support the household and have plenty left over. Green Mountain decided to change their plan on how it works. They use to have one for one and then allow you to roll over your extra energy that is put back on the grid. Instead they changed the plan, without informing anyone that they no longer do roll over. The excess energy put back on the grid is just kept by them. Green Mountain then proceeded to charge us 60 bucks a month for the ridiculous service fee and a few miscellaneous taxes. So Green Mountain energy now expects us to pay them monthly and also give them almost double the energy we use for free to the grid. Needless to say I will never use this scummy place again. I recommend anyone with solar to seek out TXU. They seem to have changed their plans to be like Green Mountain was before they changed things. I would also recommend checking out complaints listed on the BBB here on all the issue Green Mountain has had with their billing problems. Does not surprise by the way we were treated.
