Disconnect Reviews

“  Once you are late with a payment for a day, they will put a $10 late fee on you and send you a letter in the middle of the billing cycle and if you dont pay their $10 late charge immediately, they will put another $10 late charge, and then send you an intent to disconnect letter for which they will charge another $10. This is ridiculous and on a boarder with harassment. I will disconnect from them as soon as my contract is over! ”

“  In this day and age of internet, text messages, emails, instant everything....Not this company. Didn't even try to hide the fact that they are disconnecting people with no notice for the reactivation fees. How american of them. Greed just trumps everything. They wont have this customer much longer. I'm an apartment manager and will never refer this company to anyone ever again. Powertochoose.org people. Don't choose this company. A simple phone call text or email could have prevented this relationship from ending. No more referrals from my apt communities and no more money from my household. BYE FELICIA ”

“  I have literally had ONE nice experience with CS seriously to the point that I am willing to pay the early disconnect fee just to not have to deal with them. Literally do not GAF about working with people in difficult situations. Condescending and rude ”

“  Due to serious health issues in the household we ended up on disconnect notice. Moderately easy online payment option was removed due to the disconnect notice. Long menu tree to long wait to speak with non-native English speaker (had to repeat multiple sentences due to mispronunciation and weird syllable inflections; not an accent thing, clearly a lack of knowing the words except by reading them thing) to ANOTHER wait to use an automated system "to protect my personal information" and then YET ANOTHER long wait to speak to the representative again. I researched and compared plans during the waits. I'll be paying slightly more per therm with a lower monthly fee and 6 month term. ”

“  Had some serious issues and ended up on a disconnect notice. ONline payments were taken off due to the disconnect notice. Long menu tree to get a long wait to speak a non English speaking (understandable if you listen very closely and they repeat every third sentence 2-3 times) representative. Then, "to protect your private information" you go an automated system where you wait AGAIN for an automated service where you enter all the data on the wonderful cell phone keyboard, and then you go back and wait YET AGAIN for the representative. I researched and compared plans during all that wait time. I'll be changing providers. ”

“  I absolutely hate this company, but it seems to be the most affordable in Houston. I will be looking around again this week. This company charges you for every little damn thing. They consistently give you a different due date only so they can charge you late fees and disconnect fees. This company has no loyalty to its long term customers. They give you a payment plan, only to change your due date and say you're late paying. And their uneducated customer resps can only say, "oh I'm sorry but there's nothing I can do about it." Your light bill is $80 but by the time their finish with fees and taxes your bill is almost $200. I'm moving out of this chit hole country where I will have solar power. America, Stream Energy and its staff can kiss my a**! ”

“  I understand people have to pay bills even during hardships but good luck trying to work anything out with this horrible company! We are in the middle of dealing with a pandemic and layoffs, so I called to get a payment arrangement on my bill. They offered me nothing! Just an extra week to pay the whole bill or get disconnected. Then when I review the bill there is over $100 in EXTRA fees. $10 twice for a disconnect notice but I only received one. Late charges twice. No slack at all for things we have no control over. Hell even dropping the $100 in extra stuff would make it easier to pay the bill considering I have paid my bill for over 18 months and am in good standing with the company. My bill steadily increases from $280 to $480 every month but I was duped into signing a 24 month contract "for a better rate"! Horrible company with no care for their customers. Definitely would not recommend. Not even a pandemic will stop them from getting their money on time. ”
