direct energy gas cost
(4.8 / 5)
“
Through no fault of Direct Energy I was paying too much for gas compared to my local energy company. After calling Direct Energy they lowered the cost to half of what I was paying to Direct Energy for my gas. They have been great in working with me to keep my cost down. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank You!!! ”

I chatted with Michael C. on the website today because my email address was incorrect and I could not get it fixed even though it showed the correct address. I had set up the account with a previous email address but switched to a new one. Michael helped get it corrected in less than 5 minutes. I have been very pleased with the service I have received from Direct Energy. ”

(4.8 / 5)
“
I love Direct Energy. I've been using them for 12+ years at multiple residences. Transfer is always easy, and I love that I get a month of free energy service every year! Their rates are competitive, and any time I've had to speak to customer service they've been really friendly. I even call about every 6 months to see if they'll lower my rate, and often they do by a cent or two!You get a discount when you sign up with a personal referral. You're welcome to use my refer-a-friend code: BD51V1 - enjoy!! ”
