I don’t know why we have to pay all these extra fees and charges when the company isn’t doing anything different!

Energy providers are difficult to deal with. I have changed providers and as long as I get gas I am happy. Comparing providers is tricky. I find it difficult to deal with Alinta as they don't have an office and I don't particularly like doing business over the phone. I have a hearing problem and don't always understand the accent which makes it frustrating for me and them.

I have had no problems with Alinta. In difficult times they are understanding and offer to extend the period of time in which I can make my repayments
