Many years of good service

(5 / 5)

  I've been with Direct Energy and have been very satisfied. I like the fact that I can sign up for a new program before my program expires. If I see that a lower rate is being offered by you while mine s still in effect, I want the lower rate.

It's all true!

(5 / 5)

  For years I did not believe my energy bill could be lower than what I was paying with TXU. That is until Direct Energy. Wow! What a difference! There was a hiccup in getting my order registered but even that was resolved in an hour and, just like that, I started saving money. Thank you, Direct Energy!
