First year cheaper, second year wow

The fee for this third party provider is double my actual gas bill from PSEG. Was never paying more than 80 per month before switching to them, and wasnt for the first year. Second year? The charge for using them was 80 dollars and my actual energy use was 40. Huge mistake switching to them. Ive promptly switched back.

RIP-OFF

This company will rip you off I realized my payment was tripling. When I call to find out why they said because I didn't call to renew my plan. My plan went from 9% fixed to 14% variable. I do not recommend this company I will not ever use this company again please stay away from this company... BIG A$$ RIP-OFF!!! NEVER AGAIN!!! WILL CHEAT YOU OUT OF YOUR MONEY, AND WON'T EVEN TRY TO ACCOMMODATE YOU.
