I googled them they are full of fraud and had just been fined. They keep trying to sell me a 5-years contract that saves your gas and hyrdo bill because they give you a frozen rate, a very high one though. What they'd do is get you to show them your bill to get your account number, and then ask you to fill up their so called application form but you are not obligated to use their service until they call and you have to say yes but what they'd do is get your bill, and fill up the form for you, some even copy your signature and then call you and ask you to confirm your address so you'd say yes and they'd save that "yes" word that you said and made it into yes, you want their service. Their catch is, you have to pay them hundreds of dollars some even thousands of dollars to cancel their ridiculous bill if you want out before the 5 years contract and people who accidentaly signed up with them always wants out because their gas and hydro bill is more expensive and up the roof! I am not opening the door the next time round! |
I hate those scammers, I used to have a very to the point notice at my front door saying basically that we were not interested in any door to door sales, religions... that they were trespassing and to immediately remove themselves from our property.
Well one of those scammers from the energy saving company saw the note and ripped it up. He is lucky I never saw him do it. I saw him going door to door and thought he just read the notice and left, after I saw it crumpled and ripped up, the nerve.
Funny but I just had another salesman come to the door just now, I ignored him.
