I installed solar panels to support the costs of electricity. Alinta are a great option for cost with or without solar panels.
We had a power outage at one phase of the house, called our electrician for an expert opinion. He checked everything, and we realised the fault is outside the house and with the provider. We followed the appropriate instructions. Interestingly Alinta Energy takes no responsibility, believes this is purely Energex's issue, and we should directly deal with Energex. If we are paying our bills to Alinta, we need at least an element of cooperation and some responsibility. If we want to keep calling around, I do not understand what is the role of Alinta. Let's deal directly with Energex then and cut the middle man out! The customer service is also very poor, I asked to talk to the supervisor, after 50 minutes of phone discussion I could not communicate with him and he did not understand what the issue was. Just asked me to call Energex as Alinta has nothing to do with it (they jst send the bill and collect the money without accepting any responsibility!).
They said their prices were lower and that the discount will make it even lower. IT DID NOT. Also I have solar panels and I know someone else with them that gets a great credit for them. I do not. More expensive than with my previous provider.
Expensive
Incredible discount scheme if bill paid on time. Competitive rates. Reliable energy. Fantastic customer service.
