Very good man.
I like that the choice is mine, I either pay for power before I use it, at a rate which is discounted, or I can just pay a bill based on their base rates. Their base rates aren't that competitive but when I buy 'packs' of power up front I have the opportunity to make substantial savings. Our power usage is pretty high as we are rural customers who have to pump our own water and don't have access to natural gas. There are plenty of options to buy green power. I don't have to wade through complicated bonus offers which when it comes down to it don't apply to us as we can't bundle gas and electricity. Easy to use and navigate website, many different payment options.
I was happy till now but suddenly I have an invoice of about 15% more as it was.
Due to increased prices, I am moving to another supplier.
