Been a costumer for 6+ years recently my plan was change without my approve. My bill use to be $150 to maybe $200 max apparently, I wanted to change my plan to a more expensive plan this bill was almost $600 long story short they don't care to lose a customer over this issue I change my provider today. This is not the first time I have issues but definitely this is the where I draw the line.

Oh my god. So the first time i called I could tell they were having the best time in the background but I chalked it up to - it's late everyone is human who cares. I called a second time to change my start date and when I asked for confirmation they answered as if I was so stupid for asking for one and said they had already clicked save and I didn't need one. Well of course a day after my start date my lights aren't on. The representative tells me she will have to call the providers and I ask when I can expect a call back and she's like "uhhh TODAY". Okay? I have work I need an eta. She keeps telling me they did everything right on their end but it's still pending with the provider. I ask for a supervisor and he calls the provider... he proceeds to tell me that I need to go to city hall to get a permit because my meter is over 48 years old... IM RENTING AN APT. THE LAST TENANT WAS THERE 3 MONTHS AGO. He tells me I have to take it up with the landlord??? Anyway I call a completely different company and they said they have no idea what they're talking about and set everything up for me same day. 4change is a joke.

Bait and switch beware. I’m not even an hour into my plan and I was waiting for my confirmation email and never received it. I called ChooseTexasPower.org and I believe they aren’t as honest as well. Anyway, the bill I signed up was much different than what they told me was in the system. Prices are ridiculous to the point where you know you would have never signed up and you would have remembered the rates. These ppl tell you 9 cents then switch up to 15 and 20 cents. What I look like??? I thought I was by wing relieved and come to find out bait and switch.

Nice on the phone but ridiculously difficult to deal with as far as getting anything taken care of when there is any type of issue.

Bait and switch prices. First year I never broke $99, after that I can’t get under $180 if my life depended on it. Turn the ac off, etc. it doesn’t matter. This company is greedy and shady, I would suggest using a competitor.

4 Change energy are Liars about what your rate wll be and liars about their charges. I am usually on the road away from home . There is no central heat or air going in my hoome. The project $55 used per week and the $73 projecting my bill to be $173 or the month, however this is a lie the end moth has resulted in $438 one month , $573, and another month for $738. Complaining, emailing, and calling, results to Customer Service reading prompts and saying usage change and it's a projection. Don't fall for the lies of advertisment about rates.

I originally got 4change energy based on a recommendation in moving to Plano Texas. The price was good but when I was under a contract and moved it was not prorated at all and I was billed the full $240. Phone calls were worthless. I cannot recommend them at all. Go elsewhere for electric service in Texas!

4 Change Energy advertises 12.9 cents/kwh on the Choose Texas Power (CTP) website - it's still on the web site today. What they don't tell you is that is the price if you use EXACTLY 1000 kwh. If you go over or under by 1 kwh, the price goes up by 50% to over 19 cents/kwh. 4 Change also advertises a BBB grade of A+. Not sure how, but they actually have an A-. The 3.6 out of 5 stars is also not confirmed, and I have no idea how they got that score - especially after reading pages of customers giving them 1 out of 5 stars on reviews on the BBB website. The Choose Texas Power Commission appears to be complicit in allowing misleading information - they informed me that they know of other companies that use "trick rates" like 4 Change uses. I am no longer with 4 Change, and happy to be free from their little tricks and traps. Beware their next poor victim.
